We went to the party last August and loved it. It was the highlight of our trip. Our 6 year daughter loved and our 1 yr old son had a great time too. We enjoyed the shorter lines, the parade and fireworks show. It was worth the extra money for us. I would recommend this to anyone who asked about it. I admit I had wondered if it would be worth the extra money and it was. I am so glad we got to enjoy this Disney experiance
What can I say? I bought tickets for the event because I wanted to take advantage of the shorter lines and the different fireworks. After reading previous reviews, I was very sad to find out that we did not get a bag to put the "mardi gras beads in. I didn't bring a bag with me. We went to 2 treasure spots. We got a paper princess/pirate hat (Burger King Style). It got wet on SPlash Mountin. The secound thing we got was a candy bead necklace. MY 10 yr old DS did not get excited by that stuff. The CM's were fun - they were dancing and acting like thier ride was best so hop on! They remembered us when we rode rides again and again - but they wouldn't let us stay on - we had to go through the queue everytime even though no one was riding!!!! I guess I was dissappointed because the price of the ticket has gone up - but what Disney gave us went down.... Props to the CM's for trying to liven it up. Oh - and it was too dark to see anything. It was only my second time in the park and I didn't know where I was going. The Fireworks were awesome!!!!!
We went to the Priate and Princess Party on Valentines Day February 14th, and it was just fabulous! The weather was cool and clear and the park was full of lots of priates and princesses. We got on and off the rides with no wait times, the games of chance were fun for my daughter when she didn't want to ride Space Mountain, The music was fun and everyone could dance. The only complaint was the treasure, after two trips thru getting jewels, my boys and my husband did not want to get trasure, my daughter and I did though and there were a number of duplications. Disney should rethink what they are doing with the treasure, make them different and not the same. But the expereince was great and we would definitely do it again!
Attended the P&P party Jan 29. Our Daughter 4 1/2 had the time of her life. She pent at least 5, maybe 10 minutes with each princess ! Even the photopass photographers were surprised at how much interaction the kids got from the princesses. It was easily the time of her life. All the rides were walk ons, even BTM. Fireworks were astounding, even when viewed from fantasyland. From the Circle they were even better. As we left the park near midnight, my wife and I said to each other "I would definatley do this again". Since there was another party during our stay, on Feb 2, We Did ! Again it was worth the price. Fewer adults were in costume for the Saturday party, but it was perhaps the best evening of our trip.
