First year visiting for the event after having to cancel last year, will we be able to do every house in one night if we have express pass?
yeah if you plan it out, definitely yes. you kinda have to plan out what your Must See houses are, but i think so yes.
A question I'm mulling over is how to keep energy over the night. I don't wanna overexert myself, but I have 3 days, and I don't get to come much, so I wanna get as much as I can out of it. I was initially thinking about rationing an energy drink throughout the night(s), but I wanna know if there are any better ideas.
everyone else gave some really excellent advice but i could add a couple more. can apply to both of these questions,
1. from 6 PM to 8 PM the lines are not as bad, but from 8 to around 11 pm some houses will be 2 hours or longer in line, and the Express will be long as well. you will have to figure out which houses you really really want to see. maybe check our reviews to see what people are saying. (the point is that sometimes you gotta prioritize depending on the line and the quality)
after midnight, the original houses tend to go down, specially in the back of the park. shorter lines.
2. if you wanna do the Fire dance show, make sure to have the times written down. and arrive 30 minutes before it starts, thats a good way to rest and get good seats. thats a good 30 minutes of resting and the show is cool.
3. about getting tired, it might not even be your feet that gets tired but the heat and humidity will get you. sometimes the lines are very hot, all that people together, feels like a sauna sometimes. Your idea for the energy drink is good. you could always ask for ice around the park. or iced water in a cup. sometimes the heat is what gets me tired. i'll drink like 5 cups of ice water around the park lol. constant cold water.
-comfortable shoes, light clothes, plan out your trip, try to avoid the sun from 6 to 8 pm. Obviously you want to do as much as you c an, but taking breaks to sit down are important and the fire dance show is a great way to rest And see the show.
Hello all! Was not planning on going this year because I live across the country now and had already planned on going to Disney for the Wine and Dine Half Marathon. I saw that November 3 is one of the last dates for HHN and turns out to be when I fly in. I’ve been going every year since 2008 but have always went at the very beginning of the season. How are crowds typically that Nov Friday? Wondering if I should add express.
other years i would say that nov 3 would be pretty light in crowds, but the past few years its getting crazier. sometimes the last day of HHN gets really really crowded. being a friday i think it will be crowded just because of being a friday. more and more people are becoming fans of the event and more and more people are going .
it all depends if they allow frequent fear pass people inside. If they allow frequent fear passes then yes, it will be very crowded (i would definitely be there for example lol
)
