I'm almost at the point where I'm going to switch my days so I can also go to the 9/7 party. I (I know I keep talking about it) Got alternate ADRs lined up, though, so I'm inching closer.

I'm nervous because I would lose my FP for FOP on 9/7 and I'd miss HEA if I switched. I've experienced both before, and am already planning to return next year, though. Not sure if I'll make it back to WDW next Halloween, though.

That is my plan too, since our flight doesn’t leave until 7:30 pm. I haven’t decided whether we will use airline check in at the resort or just keep it with us in our rental car. Either way, it will be subjected to some September heat at some point.

I put our candy in a gallon ziploc, put the ziploc in a bag, and asked bell services to put it in the refrigerator (they were holding our other carryons as well). Then when we left we put the ziploc in our carryon bag.

All this talk about candy and taking it home....luckily our first party is the first night we get there so I’m thinking most of the candy might be gone by the time we leave lol

We did this last year. We were in the line a little bit before 4, and then at 4 my boyfriend went off to get his wristband, then when he came back I went to get mine.

Awesome, thank you! We're trying to maximize our time as much as possible and being able to queue before getting our wristbands will help us tremendously.

We did not see the horseman, but I don’t think he rode before the first parade because of the earlier rain. We got to the flagpole while the Zootopia dance party was still going on, so if he typically rides after that, you should be ok.

What is the Zootopia dance party? I had not read about that yet for the Halloween parties.

Anyone know of/have experience meeting Minnie and/or Donald and Daisy towards the end of the party? We were contemplating hopping in line for them first thing after meeting Pooh and friends (priority #1!) but now I’m possibly reconsidering waiting til later (possibly during the first parade?) so we can do more trick or treating. Haha. Thank you!!

Theyre in the parade so you might not get to meet at that time. Last year I met them between parades, so kind of later. Line tapered the later it became.

Perfect! That's so good to know. Thank you.

Somehow those times don’t make sense to me. Does zootopia come out before the headless horseman?

Yes - they are the pre-entertainment for those waiting on Mainstreet

Zootopia is after the Headless Horsemen. The Horseman rides through the entire parade route and then while Main street waits for the parade zootopia comes out. Zootopia doesn't come to the Fronteirland portion of the route.

I know that Space Mountain doesn’t switch over to the “overlay” until 7. If I got in line around 6:40 with a 20+ minute wait, would the switchover occur while I’m in line?

Oh somehow I missed that....thanks! We were planning on watching the parade from Frontierland so we will most likely miss it.

Oh okay I didn’t know that

These are conflicting answers. I’m assuming the headless horseman comes out first and zootopia follows him on Main Street?

 

[Haley R]

I got this at target yesterday for $9. I’ve actually never seen the movie so I’m gonna read this and then watch the movie. I’m getting super excited for my trip!

yes. Horsemen first and then zootopia if on main street.

 

[Cluelyss]

This. No Zootopia f you’re watching from Frontierland.
