We just purchased party tickets for NOV. 1 and I was wondering the same thing. How can they get all the guests out of the park who shouldn't be there? I feel like I'm paying a premium for a parade and fireworks show that other people can just hang out and watch without paying for the party ticket. Can anyone give an honest answer about whether or not you can stay in the park and watch the parade without buying a ticket? and I'd like the non PC typical Disney answer " o yea they screen everyone and then they walk you to the exit and watch you leave". My gut feeling tells me you can shop on main street and stick around for the parade and fireworks without much a hassle. From what i've gathered, they only check for your ticket at rides entrances and when you walk into the 5 different lands of the park.

You are over thinking this. I have been to MNSSHP for the past 7 years and they are very good at getting those that did not buy a ticket out of the park. I MEAN MILITARY PRECISION STYLE! You'll see. Oh and don't trust gut feelings, as pepto can change that. STAY AWAY FROM BAD CHEESE...

Starts in the backlands... they merge towards the hub. then push up Main St. stopping as a group if anyone needs to leave. Each location is responsible for clearing their own. All do whats called a "hard close", then put CMs at the doors. Emporium does a good job of this by putting up CMs as one-way guards inside the store, then will escort non-paying guests out.

Usually tons of complaints from guests arguing why Disney doesn't want their money.

Having never experienced this myself, is an effort not made to try and sell the guests a ticket for the party? Such as if you want to stay, just head over to guest relations (or wherever) and buy a ticket.

You will be directed out of the park promptly at 7. If you don't have a wristband don't try to stay, it becomes quite an embarrassing scene for those involved when the cast come along the parade route checking wristbands.

Quick and perhaps silly question for anyone out there. Many months ago, we managed to get a reservation at Be Our Guest restaurant at 6:50pm on an evening that MNSSHP occurs. We enjoyed our visit to BOG last December and I booked the reservation before ever realizing it was a MNSSHP night. I suspect since our reservation is before 7pm that we will be allowed in for dinner despite not having bought tickets to attend MNSSP that particular night. If we aren't seated right away at our reservation time though, any chance we would be asked to leave?

I do not think it's about some one else getting something free that we paid for since they are purchasing a ticket. I do feel sad that our night is cut short and we miss out on 2 favorite parts of the evening because of it (parade and fireworks). I would have been ok purchasing an add on to our ticket but the only option is a full price ticket. I guess it is what it is, next year we will plan better.

They definitely do. The "ghost host" announcements leading up to and at the start of the party say if you don't have a ticket and want to stay, go purchase one.

They should let you eat dinner. After you are done you may be escorted directly to the front gate by a CM however. I have seen reports of this happening at hard ticket events.

Thanks. That would be fine with us. I would feel too guilty sticking around without purchasing a ticket, so our plan would be to leave after dinner anyway.

Can anyone shed some light on how Disney separates this event from guests who are there for the day? We are FL residents and will be taking my dd for her 1st bday 10/11 in the am. I called customer service and she said that they won't kick us out at 7pm but we can not go on rides or shows. We were hoping to stay for the 8:15 parade since we will miss the light parade.

In 2007 they must have checked our bands well we were waiting for the parade 3 or 4 times. I'm sure some people manage to sneak a view of the parade but they couldn't have been in a good spot.

Typically there are, Halloween, the days around it, and two years ago the 40th/start of FW/half marathon/Haunted Mansion Merch event all collided on the first weekend in Oct, so the 9/30 party sold out.

Other than that, its usually safe to wait.

Inexplicably, many more MVMCP sold out last year though.

Since I was at the party on Sept 13 and was sitting eating at 7pm I can tell you every CM was looking down at the wrist of every person who walked by them. When you enter the park for the party they put the wristband on the same wrist (right wrist when we went) this way CM only have to look at one spot if not wristband you are escorted out. And it is like a military operation lol...

The magic bands will now alert them of a free loader in section f sector 3 at which time Disney Special Ops will repel from the top of the Disney Dome to take them down.
