Hiya Rebecca!
Welcome to planDisney!
Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party is one of the most magical times of the year! Festive lights, delicious scents, and even snow in Florida!
I just spoke to a friendly Cast Member who told me that everyone would be required to present when wristbands are distributed. I just enjoyed
Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party a few weeks ago and got my party bracelets in the Parks. After speaking with a Cast Member about which line was moving the fastest she guided me to the one in Tomorrowland across from
Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor. I got on the line and my husband and kids went to find a Mickey pretzel. I quickly learned that the line was moving so fast that I had to call my husband to hurry up and join me. (We ate the pretzels in line!) Quite a few Cast Members will be stationed to scan party tickets and put the wristband on your wrist. They are even directed to place the wristband on the Guest's right wrist. (I asked to have it on the other wrist but they said it was the rule to put it on the right wrist.)
Make sure to save space for all of the cookies and drinks located at stations throughout the Park. It's included with the cost of your party ticket and is not to be missed. Hot cocoa is my favorite wintertime drink and I hope it gives you and the kids the energy to celebrate late into the night.
I hope that this was helpful and that you have a jolly good time!
Happy Planning!
