Park Hours/ MNSSHP /ROL

[Getyogrooveon]

Going 17/08 - 31/08 and ADR day next Saturday, desperately trying to finalise plans, but this year the hours seem to be released far later and are less certain!

So, I assume AK, which is currently showing 7pm closing, will change to at least 9pm and there will be at least one ROL showing each night around closing time? Ideally want to book a dining package at Tusker for either 18/08 or 19/08. Any want to hazard a guess as to whether these will be released by next Saturday?

The potential of MNSSHP being on 25/08 and 29/08 totally throws the planning out of the window. We always go last 2 weeks of Aug so feel if they are on, need to experience it. Is the very first one always the busiest? Should I plan to be in MK on 29/08 just in case? Anyone any ideas when they will be finalised?

Mnsshp party dates are normally released April . If mk shuts at 7pm it's normally a party night but none can confirm that until Disney release mnsshp. Role has been a disaster so far and full park opening hours often aren't finalised until the later. You can always book a d then cancel to the correct package you want. It doesn't all have to be done at 180 days. Disney often change things up to the 6 months before They announced they were sutting half of HS the month before we went in 2015. Book what you need then just cancel the adrs if something else pops up. Tickets for mnsshp won't be on sale u til end of April/ may anyway x

We have the same issue, I'm going to book donalds safari breakfast and hopefully convert it to a ROL package when they become available. We will also book Rainforest cafe for an early dinner and keep the evenings we are at animal kingdom free so that we can experience AK in the dark

Just to add that we are hoping to do MNSSHP on the 1st Sep and have planned that in. TBH I don't care how busy it is as we don't go to do the rides, more to see the characters, parades, fireworks and trick or treat. We have that day free with MNSSHP in the afternoon and evening so we can book fast passes.

We went in Oct 2011 and the kids still talk about it. It is amazing!
