Though the Christmas holiday has already come and gone, that does not mean the festivities have stopped at Walt Disney World.

The last couple of weeks are historically the very busiest of the year crowd wise. Navigating heavy crowds can be challenging and a bit overwhelming, but with a great touring plan and strategy, it is still possible to enjoy your day!

Be sure to check Character Locator for updates to park hours, crowd calendars and make the best touring plan for yourself.

If you are looking for other events at Disney to ring in the New Year, there are a few options, though it seems to be a bit limited.

Guests who are willing to pay, and I mean PAY, can attend this event at California Grill. If you are looking for something more reasonable, be sure to check out other events HERE and HERE.
