December 2017 Disney World crowd calendar and park hours created

I’ve completed my December 2017 Disney World Crowd Calendar with the initial park hours.  It contains the Extra Magic Hours for each day and some of the parade and fireworks information.  Click to read more!

What you’ll find about my Decemeber 2017 Crowd Calendar.

1.  It has all the initial Extra Magic Hours.  Typically the week of Christmas and the week after will offer additional Extra Magic Hours and some Saturdays may add Extra Magic Hour as well.   There’s no way to predict what will happen, only report on what does happen.
2. Fireworks and Parade times aren’t complete for the month.  We’ll know more about those things as we get closer, but you’ll never find Happily Ever After Fireworks on a night when the park closes for Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party.   I’ll update the Crowd Calendar as we go along.
3. Park hours will change, a lot.  Over the next 6 months, I’ll post a number of times about the park hours changing.  For example the Magic Kingdom park hours recently updated for select dates in late May, June and early July and Hollywood Studios recently updated for September 2017.  Don’t be too obsessed about closing times right now.
4. The Magic Kingdom shows 6pm closing times for every Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party date.  Here’s hoping they do an effective job getting all the day guests out of the park before the party begins.  Over the last few years more and more people are hanging around for the parade and fireworks with no one making them leave.  Hopefully the earlier closing hour will help in that fashion.  You’ll find those 6pm closing in November and December.  It will be interesting to see if they give back the lost hour by opening an hour earlier later on.

Feel free to share the post on Facebook and Pinterest to let your friends know that the park hours are now available.
