Starting on November 8,2021, Guests may attend the Brand New Disney Very Merriest After Hours Event (with the purchase of special event ticket.) This will be a bit different than Mickey’s Very Merriest Christmas Party from year’s past.

One of the biggest differences for this event is that it comes with a BIG price increase. Even with the significant price increase, dates have sold out for this special event. With a 3rd Sold Out date being added for November 16th.

Not only will we have Christmas parades and fireworks, but we will also have the usual After Hours offerings like low wait times and free snacks. We were excited that a stage show would also be returning to this event as well.

So you have your Christmas Mickey Mouse ears packed and your Disney Very Merriest After Hours ticket purchased, what’s next? To create your touring plan on Character Locator for the evening of course.

We are so excited for the return of the Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade!!! And that there will be 2 runs of this parade for Guests to enjoy. Our family has always enjoyed the second showing that has seemed less crowded at the previous Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party.

It will be interesting to see how this After Hours event will differ compared to the previous Christmas Party. Be sure to check out an honest review of the comparison between Mickey’s Not So Very Scary Halloween Party and Disney’s After Hours Boo Bash HERE.
