The first Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party (or MVMCP) of the year is tonight, ringing in the Disney Holiday Season. Held at the Magic Kingdom on select nights through December 22, this is a festive and fun way to celebrate the holidays. With the chance to see magical fireworks, a parade and live shows, plus carolers, special characters, “snow” on Main Street and all the cookies and hot chocolate you want, it’s easy to see why this is a great way to get into the holiday spirit. A “hard ticket” event, MVMCP is not included as part of regular park ticket admission however, so if you want to attend, you will need to pay extra. Read more

While wandering around Liberty Square within Magic Kingdom on a particularly hot and busy day in the park, we noticed that the Liberty Square Riverboat was in the process of loading guests and did not seem to have a wait. We had always noticed the Riverboat but never made it a priority. Since we had some time before our next Fastpass+ reservation, we spontaneously decided to jump aboard and see what this attraction had to offer. Read more
