    What time is the parade on Nov. 27? Is it easier to ride rides with less wait times during Mickey’s Verry Merry Christmas party or should I just add another day pass?

    Hiya Whitney! 

    Welcome to planDisney! 

    According to the Hours & Events Calendar, there is currently no parade scheduled during the day for November 27. The only parade listed is Mickey's Once Upon a Christmastime Parade at Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party. The times for that parade are currently 8:30 PM and 11:00 PM. Now, there is a possibility that the calendar will be updated with more parade times as the date gets closer. Right now, the Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade which is the regular daytime parade is now held at 2 PM.

    I spoke to my coworker today about how fabulous special parties are in the Parks. I found wait times for all the open attractions to be pretty reasonable. If you are focused on just attractions you may find that during Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party, you will have a pretty good time accomplishing everything you want. However, the allure and fun of these parties are that there are special character experiences, parades, and fireworks shows. Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party also includes cookies and holiday beverages at various stations around the Park. The Disney Parks Blog usually releases a foodie guide for this event and I use it as my guide for the Party. There is quite a lot to do that is only found during this special event.

    Whitney, I can't say if purchasing an additional theme park ticket for a full day will benefit you. Frankly, I will always tell you that another day in the Parks is always the answer. But Whitney, if you are limited in time and resources, consider how you plan on enjoying the Party. Did the other special activities going on during the Party intrigue you enough to distract you from all of the attractions? Are you able to stay up late? The Party ends at midnight and if you can stay awake I would savor every minute and experience. The Party could be just enough of an exploration of Magic Kingdom Park and a holiday celebration that you need. However, Magic Kingdom Park during the daytime is a lovely experience. 

    I hope you have a lovely and festive time maximizing every moment!

    Happy Planning!
