Holidays at the Magic Kingdom 2017

[ToTBellHop]

I'm afraid I don't have any pictures but perhaps you folks do?

It is now Christmas in the Magic Kingdom--Halloween disappeared and was replaced by wreaths, garland, the entry planter (which now changes over in 1 night, not 2! Amazing work, floral!), and merch merch merch.

Tree isn't up tonight. Either tonight or after they are done filming the parks' special.

Any word on Frozen Holiday Wish? Will it start running the night of the first MVMCP?

Anyone know when the decorations are usually taken down?

Anyone know when the decorations are usually taken down?

Usually by January 6th.

Usually by January 6th.

Actually the last few years MK decor has been up through the Marathon which is January 7th this year. The other parks vary. Sometimes through the marathon sometimes not. The resorts usually take their stuff down right after New Years.

We went during Thanksgiving week last year, and it was possibly our best Disney trip ever. It was so fun seeing all the decorations and MVMCP, the resorts all decorated. I would highly recommend for anyone who hasn't been during the Christmas season.

I like the new bows and candles on the tree.

Here's from yesterday. Not very Christmassy but it's the only picture I took.

Edit: I take that back there are three pointsettas up above

Edit: wait are those pointsettas? They're red and green!

Why fantasy in the sky twice in one night on New Year's Eve and no happily ever after?

 

[HauntedPirate]

FitS fireworks?? Wish I could see that!

 

[THEMEPARKPIONEER]

Because that's how its been for the last three New Year's Eve

To bad it couldn't be wishes

 

[Disone]

FitS fireworks?? Wish I could see that!

More than likely, it's because of crowds. Fantasy in the sky fireworks is not hub-centric. Happily ever after is very hub-centric and wishes is too, though nowhere near the level of Happily Ever After. Finally it's someone has pointed out they've done this for several years now. But I do believe it's for crowd control. This way the crowd isn't so enticed all try to go to converge in the hub.

It is a great show and the NYE countdown they do at the end is fantastic, too!

I haven't even watched a video of FitS for a long time. Saw it once or twice in the late 90's, before Wishes!.

Are they honestly playing that tired old 6-minute show “special” for NYE? No thanks.

NYE is the worst holiday. Flag Day is more fun.

It's part of the Disney MAGICAL!!! Green Conservation Environmental Stewardship Program (sponsored by Waste Management). Reuse, recycle, and reuse again. I'm sure there's a DPB post for it somewhere, touting how MAGICAL!!! and wonderful it is.
