We went last Friday and were surprised at how heavy the crowds were.

My overall impression is that Winterfest still has amazing light displays. I understand the complaint that they haven’t added anything new recently, but technically that is untrue, and I’m not sure how it much it matters to people who only go once a year. Regardless, walking around the park is still a lovely experience, and honestly makes me less interested in going to Christmas Town, where they don’t seem to remember how to decorate for the holidays anymore.

The lights around The Eiffel Tower were the best I have ever seen them. They completely encircled the structure, which hasn’t always been the case. The outdoor lounge next to The Tipsy Reindeer was dramatically better decorated than when I saw it last year; it actually looked complete. Moreover, it was full of families. The Prestige Lounge was fully decorated, the second floor was open and in use, and we were offered free hot chocolate. All of those things are new.

Do I hope that they were open up Jungle-X next year, with all new themed lights and music? Of course. But I still think KD’s event is beautiful and I still love strolling through the light displays and admiring all of their fantastic trees.
 
I dont know why parks neglect to throw lights on rides. The amount of supports you walk under dominator you could have a crazy display. Wrap them suckers

I had to use my free hot chocolate park perk when I went. I wonder what the official policy is for the prestige lounge and if I was unlucky or If you were lucky.
The policy is the same as sodas you can use a drink plan if you have one that includes it or purchase a drink if not it's not part of the free lounge snacks.

I was ready to use my drink plan for the hot chocolate, but they did’t even ask if I had one much less scan for it. They just offered me a cup.

Has anyone heard rumors of WinterFest not returning in 2025? I’ve heard a couple people claiming they’ve seen stuff about it, but I can’t find anything.

I’d be shocked if they decided to do away with the event given the fact that it seemed to do pretty well this year from an attendance standpoint.

I have heard the rumor but every credible source I have talked to not only denied it but says to expect new things for 2025 Winterfest. Also passes were sold listing Winterfest 2025 as included removing it at this point would definitely run the risk of legitimate legal action

I’ve also heard this rumor, but not from anyone I’d consider credible. The fact that it seems to be circulating widely is a bit concerning though.

But as @horsesboy said, it’s advertised as part of the 2025 passes so I’d find it very questionable if Winterfest didn’t return in 2025.
 
Is anybody quickly able to tell me if berserker is running right now? Bout to make the 30 minute drive just to ride it really fast.

It was about 20 minutes ago went down to the lounge so no current eyes on it.

In any other context this would objectively be an insane idea. “I’m driving 30 minutes to be physically assaulted (twice) by a deranged flat ride and possibly spat on by other riders in sub-freezing temperatures.”

Even in this context it's insane. The ride isn't worth it even if it's going away.
