Love the Christmas party parade. So upbeat and fun. With the exception of the Castle and Goofy floats, the parade is totally different than any other parades. Fireworks are themed well to the music.

I like some parts of the Halloween parade, have grown a bit tired of the Headless Horseman and don't think the Hallo Wishes themes as well to the music as the Holiday Wishes does. I do like seeing all the guests that come in costume though.

I'm lucky in that I get to go down and work the Halloween and MVMCP parties (I work parade audience control) for about 10 to 12 of each of them each year and get to see the parade twice each night. I just prefer the Christmas parties because I think WDW is just a great place to be for the Christmas season.

Some people are just not Christmas season people, but my family and I love that time of year. Never tire of it.

Just my $.02 - Your mileage may vary
