Wizarding World Christmas--WWYD?

[SaintsManiac]

Hi All:

This November is our first trip to Universal and I am a very big HP fanatic. They are switching to Christmas decorations the day we are supposed to leave for WDW.

Currently we have 2 day park to park tickets. Our plan was to go Wednesday and Thursday all day and then check out Friday. Would it be reasonable to add a day to our tickets just to see the Christmas decor? I don't mind heading to WDW later than planned.

Is this a silly idea?

ETA I see it actually starts on Saturday. Thinking about going BACK over there to see it.

Personally I don't think it's a silly idea, but you're getting advice from a guy whose avatar is a picture of himself wearing a Harry Potter robe, so consider the source.

Apparently they'll have the frog choir singing Christmas songs, have Christmas-themed goodies and have decorations up. And a nighttime light show on the castle at night. My family has ventured down there the past few years in November, but this year we're looking at Dec. 10-17 solely so we can get in on some of the Christmas festivities down there.

sounds good - I would probably wait a few days and then go back to ensure that all of the holiday spirit has come out.

Very reasonable.

I think it's also reasonable to upgrade to APs so you can keep going back during the Disney side of your trip.

Ir to forget Disney altogether.

So it's definitely reasonable to add one teeny tiny day to your ticket and go back later in the weeks


But much like the opinion of the fellow in robes, my autocorrect changed "upgrade" to, no lie, "Hogsmeade" just now. So... I might be biased.

Thanks for the replies! I am considering changing things up and going back there Sunday evening. I have to run it past the non fanatical family first Can you add days at the hotel? We are staying at Cabana Bay.

ETA: We've decided to keep the 2 day ticket and flip one of our MK days with Universal. We'll have our own vehicle, so it will be easy. Thanks again!

Silly? Uh, no. We'll be there 11/18 - 11/24.

I'm going to be there December 15-22. I hadn't even thought about Christmas decorations at HP. This is going to be so awesome.
