    Default What is your favorite Special Event in WDW?

    There are so many yearly special events at WDW which is your favorite?

    These are the ones I can think of, I know I am missing more, so if I am please add.

    1.MVMCP
    2.MNSSHP
    3.Disney's Pirate and Princess Party
    4.Flower & Garden Festival
    5.International Food & Wine Festival
    6.Holidays Around the World
    7.Star Wars Weekend
    8.ABC Super Soap
    9.The Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights
    10.ESPN The Weekend
    11.Night of Joy

    For me the only ones I have been to is MNSSHP and the Flower & Garden Festival. I guess I would pick MNSSHP, even though I thought the Flower & Garden was cool and beautiful.

    Oh wait I think I was there during the Food & Wine Festival because I remember in that big building in World Showcase they had food from other countries. I remember trying some stuffed grape leaves from Egypt. I guess not to memorable for me.

    It's hard for me to pick one. Among my favorites are the holiday festivities including Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party; Flower & Garden Show; Pirate & Princess Party; & Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party!

    My favorite is the Food & Wine Festival, followed closely by Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party. I love being able to try all the great food and wines from around the world during the festival and there's just something so magical about Christmas at Walt Disney World.

    I wish there was some way to combine the two!

    I haven't done enough different ones to make a fair comparison, but Star Wars Weekends at The Studios was loads of fun !!

    I like how you think!! I'm sure they could come up with some great food and holiday drinks!!

    The OP listed some very great events. Of the ones mentioned, I have been to MNSSHP, Flower & Garden Festival, F&W Festival, Holidays Around the World, Osbourne Lights, & Night of Joy. It is so hard to pick a favorite since they were all so good. I thoroughly enjoyed them all, and wouldn't turn down the chance to go back to any of the events. However, I guess I would have to say F&W must be our favorite because that is the one event that we make a point to get back to every year. (Although, we do try to time it where we can do F&W Festival and MNSSHP in the same trip.) On December 21, I am going to add my first MVMCP to the list, so I'll have to get back to you on that one!

    We go in Oct, so we get to do both of our faves @ the same time. We go during the F & W festival @ Epcot and we get to attend the MNSSHP. A double whammy to be sure!!
