Dec 5-7

I'm going that weekend, i'm thinking that the crowds won't be too crazy.
Am i right or should I expect a pretty packed weekend?

#1DisneyFreak · 11-10-2008, 07:42 AM

I'm trying to convinve my husband to go that same time :)
I've heard that the first two weeks of Dec are usually fairly slow becuase it's after Thanksgiving but before everyone is out for Winter break. However, on the weekends, I bet it's still fairly busy with locals.... who wouldn't want to go to DL during the Christmas season :)

lovesdisney · 11-10-2008, 09:19 AM

I'll be there on the 6th and 7th! :)

It shouldn't be TOO bad... however, that's the weekend of Candlelight, so a lot of people who usually aren't there will be there. It might be a bit crowded but I don't think it'll be crazy like the end of December.

disneylover · 11-10-2008, 11:01 AM

I've gone at this time several years and always find it less crowded then later in the month. Have a great time!

So where do you get the tickets for Candelight? I didn't even realize we'd be there for that! (I've convinced my hubby :))s

lovesdisney · 11-10-2008, 07:17 PM

:D :D ummm... I actually don't know, I'm going to camp out for my spot. Haha. It's both nights, so if you can't get one night you can try another. Or if I get really lucky and my boyfriend remembers to sign up for the CM raffle and gets tickets, I might get a spot. But that's a long shot.

I'm not sure... *looks around* Help anyone? You might want to call Disneyland or check the website or something... I can ask my favorite GR CM though and let you know, but I don't know if he'll know.

BUT HEY we'll be there at the same time! I'll be there both days, so I'll most likely run into you at some point :D

Palm Desert Babe · 11-10-2008, 09:15 PM

I'll be there the 6th and 7th too!!! wat a small world......lol
The Candlelight show is like Fantamic and parades i believe. At least that's what my choir director said.

by the way, I'm gonna be in the show!!! lol had to do a little plug there.

lovesdisney · 11-11-2008, 11:43 AM

^ I knooow, I've done it before too remember? :)

They're supposed to go on sale in about two weeks, but it's REALLY hard to get tickets -- you have to be on the ticket sale site as soon as the time to buy them comes because they sell out FAST. Last year I heard it was like... 10 minutes. I don't know, something insane like that.

You could always just camp out like I'm doing :D

Dr. Monsanto got tickets for it last year. You should private message him and find out how he did it. I know it is hard! The tickets don't include park entry, so it's an added expense. But, of course, they do include dinner. If I was going I would just do the standing room and not purchase the tickets.

Palm Desert Babe · 11-16-2008, 09:43 AM

Most of the seats are reserved for the choir directors and their guest i believe, which is probably why they sell out so fast. camping out probably has just as good of a view as the seats....

i gonna be there the 6th... just that day i hope i can see a lot of vf users!!!!!!!!!

#1DisneyFreak · 11-17-2008, 08:46 AM

on the website it said that on the 18th at 6 pm they go on sale. It suggests that you call in RIGHT at 6 becuase they go so fast. I'm not sure if you can just buy the ticket for the performance... the pricing included a meal and listed some great restaurants. however, I don't need the food part. I guess I'll see when I call cause I'm not paying $80 for these tickets!

I don't think you can buy just a ticket, you have to buy the package. CAMP OUT WITH ME :) Well, my boyfriend is trying to get tickets through the CM raffle but we'll see about that.

nyjeter02 · 11-17-2008, 07:54 PM

... I'm going to be there on the 7th. The park calendar says its open until midnight so I am assuming I can avoid the candle light thing if I want and enjoy the rest of the park right?
