Welcome to planDisney, Gail!
Thanks so much for your question. If you're thinking about visiting The Most Magical Place on Earth during the most wonderful time of the year you simply have to experience
Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party.
The merry music, festive decorations, and the spectacular Christmas tree on Main Street, U.S.A all add to the special atmosphere. Crowd levels are lower than a regular theme park day, which means you'll be able to enjoy more attractions without having to wait as long in line. Some attractions are even decked out for the Holidays, such as “Tomorrowland Speedway Race Through the Holidays,” "Space Mountain – Holiday Run!," and “Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor Holiday Show.” However, my personal favorite is the Jingle Cruise! And, of course, there's
Minnie’s Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks Show, which perfectly combines the magic of Christmas and Disney. But my absolute favorite part of the party is
Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade. This enchanting parade will maximize your festive cheer (get ready for "snow" on Main Street, U.S.A.).
Gail, Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party will take place on 25 select nights, November 9 through December 22. Tickets are extremely limited for this amazing event and can be purchased online beginning July 6. However, as you mentioned in your question, Guests of select Walt Disney World Resort hotels can purchase tickets on June 29. How cool is that? Unfortunately, Gail, there is currently no defined time these tickets will go on sale. In the past, tickets have gone on sale at 6:00 AM (EST), but there are no guarantees this will be the case this year. If I were you, I'd be ready to order your tickets nice and early that day and I'm sure you won't have a problem.
I hope that's helpful, Gail. Thanks so much for stopping by planDisney.
Mike
