Us. We did it a couple of weeks ago and highly recommend. You can check in at a similar time as the other party, you can then wait in the garden, which is what we did. You don't have to do this, but we bagged front row by doing it and everyone stood up as the disabled area in front was busy and castle projections would have been obscured if we remained seated.
You are given a different colour wrist band and after the fireworks were taken to the desserts. I think there were about 15 people (not families, there were 5 families) at the party, but we got full trays of desserts and cheeseburger egg rolls.
We actually did all 4 dessert parties on our trip and would rate this one a close second to the Star Wars one - it would've been a much harder call if there had been cocktails at the after party. We will definitely be doing it again next time.
Fireworks were at 8:55 and the park closed at 10.

Sorry to hijack, we have this booked for October and also have Star Wars and frozen booked too!

Seeing as you have done all 4 can you tell me what the frozen one is like? Was that not as good? I am debating cancelling this so we can fit fantasmic in.

We've done it and enjoyed it because of the vantage point to watch the fireworks. But we found the treats too sweet. They were typically American which I find make my teeth scream

Lol screaming teeth sounds like a Halloween dessert

Got it booked for our November trip we have done the terrace desert party and the garden plaza viewing dessert party so this was a natural choice plus i hate trying to get out of MK after the fireworks lol

It is like a massive scrum lol just hoping the crowd has died down after we finish at the party.

Check the time of HEA fireworks. They were at 8:55, lots of people still left the park after they were finished even though the park was still open.

Frozen was up there with the Star Wars one last year, but I didn't enjoy it as much this year; it was 3rd on our list and not close the Star Wars or the After party. I was recovering from septic tonsillitis when we went so that may have had an impact on my experience, but DH didn't think it was as good either. We didn't enjoy the cocktails particularly and the desserts were just ok (loved the deep freeze popcorn though). I wouldn't be adverse to giving it another go as I was sick this time, but the Star Wars one was fab this year and as it was the first we did it made the Frozen and AK one pale into insignificance.

I�ve just booked this for our trip - one reason was because park closes after fireworks so after desserts it�ll be a lot easier to leave
