I am confused about the policies for Park entrance times for the Pirate & Princess parties. I heard you could go into the park at 4pm if you had a hard tix for 7pm party?? I have ADR at Crystal palace at 5:40 another rep told me NO not before 7pm?

Question

Answer 1

Leigh,

I understand your frustration. I sometimes also hear different answers from different cast members on the same question. I completely understand though, since there is just so much to learn about all the formal and informal rules at WDW. When you do get conflicting answers, you just have to ask a few times to be sure. In this case, your original understanding was the same as mine, and it is correct.

Just to be absolutely sure things hadn't changed, I also re-confirmed with another cast member just now.

So, as long as the Magic Kingdom isn't at maximum capacity (which is very very rare, and very very very unlikely at 4pm), you should have no problem entering the Magic Kingdom with a P&P party ticket after 4pm, and have plenty of time to make a 5:40 advanced dining reservation at the Crystal Palace.

Have a great time at dinner and the party!!
