Hi Jennifer! Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
It sounds like you will be attending one of the first
Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party events this year. How exciting! There is something extra magical about combining Christmas and Magic Kingdom Park!
I have spoken with multiple Cast Members and have been told that you should be able to enter this special event as early as 4:00 p.m. Although the party does not technically begin until 7:00 p.m., I have experienced this early entry myself. It is always a good idea to ask a nearby Cast Member to verify this early entry time as it is subject to change.
My advice is to grab a bite to eat after your early entry, but before the party begins, either at a
Quick-Service dining location or by making a
Table-Service dining reservation. That way, you don't spend any precious time during the party waiting for food. Plus, you want to be hungry during the party for all of the delicious complimentary treats you can get!
I hope you have the BEST vacation, Jennifer! Please visit us again with any other questions you may have.
