I've updated my Crowd Calendars to include these special events.
We will be at AK on 11/13, which according to your crowd calendar is a "green" low crowd day. I logged on at 6:00 a.m. CST this morning for fastpasses and Flight of Passage, Everest and Safari were all gone, which surprised me tremendously. Would we be wise to change plans and spend the day at a different park and then purchase tickets for the AK After Hours event that night to ensure we get to ride the most popular attractions? Just shocked at the lack of FP+ availability on a day deemed as "green" Thank you so much in advance for your advice and insights.
Actually it says "Best Park" Crowd level is the top of the screen.
OK, so it's the best park to visit, but there aren't any FP+ available for the top 3 attractions. Better to attend the nighttime event at AK than go during the day?
That's always the case for the first 3-4 days of a vacation. It doesn't matter what day it is. Use the Tap, Grab and Modify and Fastpass drop times on http://www.characterlocator.com and you'll have a blast
Are less tickets sold to these events than the Christmas party?
Yes
What are typical wait times in the magic kingdom in August for the event? Is it possible to get in earlier than 8 with an actual 10pm close?
Two hours early is limit. Characters who meet have no wait during the event.
Sure wish Disney would release" extra magic hrs after dark" dates sooner. Hard to plan meal reservations 180 day out when dont know extra magic dates . Oh well.....
It would be helpful
Do you anticipate these events to be more crowded than in years past? We did the MK After Hours in August of last year and it was amazing! Contemplating the MK event on January 6, 2020 but I am concerned we would find it much more crowded than our previous experience. Thoughts?
They only sell a few thousand tickets, so it shouldn't be bad
Thanks!
Since the event dates just came out for magic kingdom and animal kingdom, is it likely more will come out for the other parks in the next few weeks?
Hollywood Studios may not offer it due to Galaxy's Edge completely opening Dec 5
Do these tickets typically go very quickly?
We will be there in February and wondering if it’s a MUST to buy them right away?
They have occasional sell outs, but not usually really quickly
Got it!!
Thanks!!
Do you think they just might add more dates for MK ? where they go farther out for AK
Anything is possible!
