Disneyland at New Years

Is this your first visit to Disneyland?

It would be my first visit at New Years. But, I've been to Disneyland many times.

I can't think of any tips other then the obvious. I guess; check the show schedules and if there is one you have to see get their very early. And good luck. That's going to be a long day...

Good idea to check if they have any reserved seating and dining packages for the countdown. Get Fantasmic dining. It’s worth it.

Thanks for the help.

Blue Bayou Fantasmic dining packages are sold out, but River Belle Terrace is still available. I recommend you get it. You can always cancel if you change your mind.

Thanks. Do you get to choose which Fantasmic you want to see?

I don’t know, but you can ask the wait staff who hands out the Fantasmic Fastpass if they have a near midnight show. They ask which show you want to see. Check the entertainment schedule. The table service restaurant gives you breathing room from the crowds. The food is pretty good too. Usually, the fireworks immediately follow the Fantasmic early show. I don’t know if they will delay the fireworks for New Years Eve. The Fantasmic mist screens work during the fireworks. You get an entirely different show than if you’re at the castle. When the crowds dissipate after the Fantasmic show, stay around and move forward towards the river. You’ll get a better show when you’re closer.

Thanks for the advice. It's something we are considering.
