Sorry I know this was just asked, but

I can't find it, so excuse me while I ask again.

How early will they let people who have a Christmas Party ticket, but not a regular park ticket, into the gates?

The issue is the party I'm travelling with would like to eat at Liberty Tree Tavern for dinner the night of the party. I've been on them, nagging them to hurry up and make a reservation, but they don't listen. So finally I called today and all that is left is a 4:00. But if the Christmas Party isn't till 7, will they even let my group in at about 3:50?

I could have sworn I read that they start letting people in right at 4. If that's the case, I have an annual pass and I could go in and get our table at 3:50 and then the rest of my party could meet up with me as soon as they can get in.

Otherwise, we'll have to cancel and go to Chef Mickeys or 1900 Park Fare, as Crystal Palace was full (my grandma really wanted to do a character meal).

We were just there for the Halloween party and they started switching over some of the gates a bit before 4 pm. As I recall only 1 set of turnstyles would take the tickets for that night. You may not be able to get a wristband that early, but they should let you in. Just tell someone at the gate that you called and asked before you left and they said it was possible. I doubt you will have an issue.

I believe it was 4 pm as well. Belle

I will also assure you that 4pm is when they will begin letting folks in!!

Ditto. We got in around 4:00 p.m. last year with our MVMCP ticket.

Although it's already been established several times, I figured I'd let you know that we've went in at 4pm for the party. :wave:

And for good measure...

[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]You can enter the park with your event ticket beginning at 4 p.m. and you'll be given a wrist band. At 6 p.m., those attending the party are directed to Tomorrowland while Cast Members clear the park. At 7 p.m. the park reopens for the party.[/FONT]

:lol:

LOL - thanks everyone - 4 it is!

I'll just have to go in a few minutes ahead of the others to make our seating in time.

One thing though.

Our experience has been that they won't accept you as being "present" for your PS/ADR unless the ENTIRE party is there at that time. So you may not be able to check in until everyone is there.

This specifically happened to us at LTT. My hubby went ahead to check us in while I took the kids to the bathroom. They wouldn't put our paper in the stack until we were all there.
