When we first wrote this post, tickets for Disney’s Very Merriest After Hours event could ONLY be purchased over the phone.
We called first thing in the morning to try and secure some tickets but had to hold for a LONG time. If you’ll be purchasing your tickets on the phone, be prepared to wait.
The Christmas Day Parade is a family tradition!
UPDATE: Tickets for Very Merriest After Hours can also now be purchased online by guests of Disney Resort hotels, Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resort, and Shades of Green at Walt Disney World Resort with a hotel stay that overlaps with one of the Very Merriest After Hours dates.

When logged into their Disney account (with their hotel reservation properly linked to that account) guests will be able to see and purchase Very Merriest After Hours tickets online.

Just bought mine over the web, super easy after I logged into MDX.
I purchased the Very Merry after hours tickets from the My Disney Experience app. I did not need to call.
I did not have to call in, I placed my order straight on the web. You have to login to your my disney experience to verify your hotel stay then your good!!
I bought my tickets online with no problems for November 11
They can be purchased online! Just be logged in so the system can see you have a reservation for the proper timeframe and go to the Disney’s Very Merriest After Hours page. There’s a link there saying tickets can be purchased now for resort guests and (if you’re logged in) clicking on it shows you the dates available for you to purchase during your stay.
Thanks, Shelly!
Great news, Lesler!
Perfect! Thanks, Darren!
Thanks, Jennifer!
Nice, Maggie. Thanks for letting us know!
I got online at 7am and was able to purchase online. There was a small, almost unnoticeable link on the word “purchase” on the event webpage once I had signed in.
When I log in to purchase there is no offer for the $10 DVC member discount. Do you have to call for the discount?
We just purchased our tickets but we are not staying in a deluxe hotel. We are in a moderate.
This article says there will be character meet and greets. Does that mean you can actually take photos close to them? :’) Are those back?
Tony, Disney has not said “meet and greets” specifically. I’ve asked an editor to revisit this detail.
Tink224, I’d suggest reaching out to DVC member services to see what they recommend.
