Every holiday season, the
Magic Kingdom hosts Mickeys Very
Merry Christmas Party. the party lasts from
8:00pm 1:00am, but we have found that the gate usually
opens around 7:30pm. Because this is a limited admission
event, the crowds are small compared to regular operating
hours.
If
you want to beat the lines entering the park, have dinner
in one of the park restaurants. the past few years, we've
eaten had a 5:55pm seating (the
Magic Kingdom closes at
6:00pm) in places like the Liberty Tree Tavern or
Cinderella's Royal Table. You can enjoy a leisurely meal
and wait in the restaurant until guests are allowed back
into the park. Instead of having to get your ticket
exchanged for a wrist band at City Hall, you can get them
in your restaurant. You'll save lots of hassle and
waiting in lines.
Mickey and his friends create a magical evening for all,
including shows, special parades, an enchanting Christmas
parade, fireworks, yummy treats, a family photo, and
snow. Yes, you read it correctly it snows on Main
Street USA. A stage is set up in front of Cinderella
Castle for holiday shows, which occur several times
throughout the evening. Youll receive a brochure giving
the time and place for the special events, as well as the
locations for photos and treats. In previous years, there
have been two showings of the Main Street Electrical
Parade and you can catch a double dose of fireworks.
Weve even enjoyed Belle telling a special Christmas tale
with lots of help (and participation) from her
enthusiastic audience.
