Got myself a free night at DLP for 4 people with 2 day hopper passes, I fancied Xmas time so ive booked 21 dec.

Just wondered if anyone had been during this time what it is like crowd wise? Im considering going to the parks the 20th,21st,22nd, (ill buy another one day pass)

Anyone been this time of year before?

Hi

We went that time last year.

The weekend was really busy, however in the week it was really quiet, and there were no queues for ride.

The christmas decorations and shows are excellent. Make sure you watch Mickey's winter wonderland as it is really good

Thanks

Joanne

I know what you mean...we went in March this year and paid £490 for 4 nights at Sequoia, and for xmas week its £900 :omg: :omg: flights are the same price if we book now though, so have to make a decision pretty quick I think :D

Its very wet and cold if you have kids waterproof suits are great for them.

Christmas season is a fantastic time to go - in my opinion the best :grin: as said, the week days should be fine, will no doubt get really busy on the weekend, especially so close to Christmas - have fun :d:

I have never been for christmas but we went for NYE last year and it was fantastic. All the christmas decorations and parades were still running and there was such a lovely atmosphere in the parks and Disney Village. The crowds werent too bad until midday on NYE but New Years Day was fairly quiet again. It was a bit wet and cold but as long as your prepared for this with coats, hats, scarfs etc you'd be fine.

Xmas at DLP is great! It's my fave time to go! I love the 'snow' on Main St; Fantillusion (night parade); Enchanted Fairytale Ceremony; the decorations; extra shows including Winnie the Pooh; meeting Father Xmas and more!
We've been around this time but not for years as we avoid school hols now, but the queues were ok during the week. It was cold though: I wore thermals, ski gear (yes!), thick boots, 2 pairs thick socks, hat, scarf, gloves etc... Basically LOTS of layers!!! Sounds extreme I know but I really didn't feel out of place and the number of idiots I saw in inappropriate clothing, looking longingly at my salopettes and jacket was ridiculous! Half the people don't last a day there I'm sure 'cos they get too cold!
You'll have a great time!
