Hiya Riahn - welcome to
planDisney!
Thanks so much for stopping by today with your question for our team of panelists. We love to help Guests just like you from around the globe plan your very own, very magical, Walt Disney World Resort holidays!
I'm so excited to hEAR that you'll be enjoying all of the
magical holiday experiences Walt Disney World has to offer this year! There are amazing decorations, treats, holiday cheer, and so much more. Plus, you'll be visiting during the
Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary Celebration, so it's double the celebration!
I see that you're scheduled to arrive on December 22nd, and that just so happens to be the date of the very last
Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party hosted at
Magic Kingdom Park for the year. If that's something your crew is interested in doing, I suggest purchasing tickets soon, as this will likely be a very popular party date.
The great news for you is that there isn't a party on Christmas Eve, meaning that you won't have to worry about Magic Kingdom closing early to accommodate party Guests. This is one of the busier days of the year at Magic Kingdom, and while park hours haven't been posted yet, the park typically closes at a normal time, or a bit later - you'll be able to stay the full day if you wish to!
I hope this information gives you some holiday cheer -
please let us know if any other questions pop up as you continue planning your adventure!
