Definitely get a fast pass. We went in holiday period of China was crazy busy and certainly no manners with some tourists alot of cutting and pushing..can do it all in one day...staff friendly and helpful...very hot in the park...if like us your children are tall take a copy of their passport we were spoken to so rudely because our children aged 11 and 9 are extremely tall they accused us of lying about their ages (was a bit of a dampener at the beginning)..The parades are great and the fireworks amazing...
