Welcome back to planDisney, Paul! And how fun that you're planning a holiday visit to Walt Disney World Resort.
Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party is one of my favorite after-hours events, so let's look at how you can snag tickets soon.
Guests staying at Disney Resort Hotels will be eligible to purchase tickets on July 9, so my first tip is to be sure your hotel reservations are linked to your
My Disney Experience account. The ticketing system will only let you purchase party tickets if you're a registered resort guest. All other guests will be able to buy tickets on July 16.
I chatted with a ho-ho-ho Cast Member about what time you can begin purchasing admission to this event, and he said you should be able to see the option to buy online around 7:00 AM EST. If you'd rather call the
Ticket and Hotel Reservations line for help, it opens around 8:00 AM EST.
In the past, these special event ticket drop times have varied, so I recommend logging in before 7:00 AM to make sure you're good to go. Heavy site traffic can occasionally cause delays, so I've learned to brew a strong cup of coffee and settle in for the adventure!
Did you know there are exclusive
holiday PhotoPass opportunities during the party? I think photos are the gift that keeps on giving! My friends and I had fun at the giant holiday card props last year, so keep your eyes open for those.
Paul, I'm sending tinsel and pixie dust your way for a successful ticket purchase tomorrow. Please stop by
planDisney again and have a holly-jolly time!
Magic awaits,
Elaine
