Hi Richard,
I see that you are planning a fabulous holiday vacation to Walt Disney World. There is so much to do and see during the holiday season that it is hard to cram all that magic into one trip. You have already picked some of my top must-dos for your upcoming vacation with
Jollywood Nights and
Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party! If this is your first Disney World Christmas, you are in for a real treat.
Disney theme park tickets and event tickets are
nonrefundable and nontransferable. Once you pay for them, there will not be adjustments to your ticket prices. You will not be able to use your
Disney Annual Passholder discount before the official activation of your pass. You can purchase your Disney Annual Pass before you plan to use it and you do not have to activate your Annual Pass until the first day of your trip. The clock on your Annual Pass dates will not start until you activate your pass. Once you purchase your Annual Pass, it will be in your My Disney account but it unfortunately cannot be used to purchase discounted event tickets until it is fully activated. If you are a Disney Vacation Club Member you have to the option to use that membership to purchase discounted Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party Tickets.
While you are visiting for the holiday season, don't forget to also check out the
EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays. This event is included with admission to EPCOT and is an adventure through the holidays all around the world. Throughout World Showcase you can visit food booths, listen to holiday storytellers, and experience unique holiday celebrations. This culminates multiple nights in a Candlelight Processional where a massive choir, celebrity storyteller, and orchestra tell the story of Christmas. It is a moving experience that you do not want to miss if you have never been.
Happy Planning,
Jenna
