We will be standing in line to enter the party as soon as y'all will let us in on Monday, June 11th!When are you going?
Being able to sprawl and relax is part of the appeal to my booking the party.
I responded on the SW thread.We will be standing in line to enter the party as soon as y'all will let us in on Monday, June 11th!
Has anyone successfully swapped a pre-party for an after-party online? I have been trying to do so but I keep getting an error message, and then when I call I get the "two hours hold time" message, and I'm in the classroom all day so I can't do that.

I can’t quite tell if you’re saying this tongue in cheek or being serious, but if you’re serious, I’m not so sure I’d use the words “sprawl out and relax” to describe the Plaza Garden party even before this recent change. Adequate personal space not elbow to elbow, yes, sprawled out, I’m not sure.
Sorry to dissect your terminology there.
It's ok! Yes, I'm being a bit facetious. I basically don't want to be crowded in. I want to have "arms length" space between groups so that my little shorty can see, and I can avoid a panic attack from being claustrophobic. I know no one is laying down on the ground.
FWIW, for my 7 and 3 year olds, I’ve 1) positioned myself on the back rail so I can pick them up and not worry about blocking people behind me (also helps to have something to lean on when carrying so much weight!) and 2) positioned myself towards the front rail and just let them stand. They still can’t see the lower castle stuff from there, but the higher stuff is fine. The open walkway on the path in front of the garden gives just enough of a space to let little ones see out/up. I’m not going to say this is the absolute perfect setup for little ones, but for me it’s better than being out in the hub smushed together with potentially much more difficult viewing situations.
Ooh my kids are roughly the same age and I'm sending them with my parents Sat night. I just learned about this back rail tip but am worried that won't have the stamina to hold them up for the show...would you recommend they go with option 2, the front rail? Thanks!
Mainly standing that I saw. If you have a child or short adults I’d suggest hanging back to give you some distance from those in front of you or trying to snag a spot along the front railingwere people standing or sitting? would a child be able to see?
We have a reservation for the garden party for Saturday night. I will post a review when I get a chance after. As I get claustrophobic in big crowds, I hope this is still worth the heafty price tag.
Agreed-as long as people think the guaranteed spot and buffet quality desserts are worth the $69. I had hoped with the price increase and new menu I’d feel the cost was worth it but I still don’t.I saw nothing at the viewing area last night that would make me not go or cancel.
Based on the “crowd” last night I would say you should be fine. It Is quite spacious compared to the rest of the Hub

Personally I think the dessert parties at Hollywood Studios are a much better deal as the food is much better, include alcohol, and you get a souvenir
I'm trying to look at it as the positive of a guaranteed spot, too, and I booked it before the price increase. What would really resolve my dilemma is if Disney extends DHS morning EMH through September, then I can switch my days around and do EMM at MK instead of the fireworks party.
I wouldn't base anything on the crowd last night, since it wasn't well advertised and not many people booked the after party.Based on the “crowd” last night I would say you should be fine. It Is quite spacious compared to the rest of the Hub
