Disney News, Discussion & an Element of Fun!

[figmentfinesse]

Im hearing that Parade Control CM's are being told to be ready for 7/1 return @ MK Im assuming that we will hear about Epcot soon as well. They will need to have something else at the same time or it will be a train wreck. Im glad we are at BLT

Wait, like actual Parades are coming back or that’s the team that also does firework crowds?

 

[DianaMB333]

Rumors in another message board where folks tend to know a lot of CMs say that Disney is targeting July 1st to begin fireworks. Grain of salt and all that but thought I'd share.

If this is true it's literally the day we leave- I could scream haha.

Which message board do you follow pls?

 

[mster425]

idk about you but my answer would be YES.

Yeah I already did it, ha! Booked at Epcpt for the 1st

 

[DianaMB333]

I am glad to hear this. But as someone visiting soon, I am so VERY SAD .

This is great news! I am leaving property this Sunday.. have been here a couple of weeks and had the fortune of seeing some testing.. but not the same … Will be back for the 50th

WDWmagic! There's a forum on there dedicated to fireworks I lurk on.

they do fireworks as well

 

[Loro]

Now if they'd finally announce FP+ coming back, then maybe I can look past the 'Ohana changes... Maybe...

 

[RamblingRabbit]

Since Ohana isn't going to have Stitch at breakfast should we get a Dessert Party instead? I'm not sure it's necessary since we already have boo bash tickets and will be in the Kingdom for 2 days.

 

[Kelly014]

YAY! I am getting my fireworks, Ohana (sort of ) ...now I just need Typhoon Lagoon and all will be happy in my world!

 

[Heather07438]

Oh yeah! This is some of the best news possible. WDW just had to. Independence Day week is the perfect time to get fireworks going again.

This is big for Boo Bash too. I really hope they do fireworks like they’ve done for Villians after hours.

Pretty sure insider at WDWmagic said while firework is planned to be back by July, most likely it will after July 4th. (not during)

[edit] NVM I see today there is rumor of now being July 1st due to successful testing.

Disney Targeting Early July Return of Fireworks

Exciting news.... I wish it were a week earlier, since it looks like we'll just miss it by a few days, but hey, what can you do? It really is great to see things coming back!

Same! Pretty excited, even though we'll miss it by a few days too . But I was thinkin'...

@mrsap you mentioned testing a page or two ago...can I please put in an early request for Friday's boogie routine and offering to the Disney Gods? How about live testing at MK throughout the weekend before July 1?

News from Disneyland Paris about the reopening next week:
For the selfiespots they will not use Lineberty, as they did last year for Arendelle & Frosted (Kristof/Sven/Anna/Elsa & Olaf)
Spiderman at the Marvel hotel will only be available for people staying at the hotel and can book a spot via the app. This is interesting, makes me wonder if they will do away with Lineberty and have it included in the app.

I hope they do get rid of Lineberty, the app never recognised my location as being inside the park last time I was there, so missed out on all of the characters at the Studios park

 

[pixiemama91]

This news makes me so happy! I was really hoping to have some fireworks by our trip in August.

 

[KC1535]

Going mid October. I am excited about the fireworks starting back up in July. We always do the Epcot fireworks cruise from YC. I really hope that will be back as well.

Disney Targeting Early July Return of Fireworks

“According to BlogMickey.com sources, Disney is getting ready to bring back fireworks in early July to Magic Kingdom.


This is based on their inside sources and is not official, but usually Blog Mickey is spot on…..


I’M CRYING

Hallelujah!! Oh man, there’s gonna be a lot of ugly crying in the audience when those come back lol (me included)

 

[Gusey]

To mark the return of DLP Disney have released two cute videos featuring Max, Goofy, Chip & Dale:
Goofy & Max
Chip & Dale at Buzz Lightyear

I'm not a fan of Lineberty either.

I didn't have the problem you had, but it was always stressful. There were so little spots available. Always both on our phones, constantly refreshing at park opening. When we got the tickets we wanted, it was still stressful as it depends on the people ahead of you. Initially it says, your ticket is at 12:00. But if the people ahead of you take less time than average or don't show up, it can be that your time will change into 11:30. There is a 15 minute (?) grace period, but still. You are constantly on your phone.

I’m so happy about the fireworks, but we are at the contemporary from 6/20-6/25…. L was so, so hoping to see something. Thrilled for the people that will see them though
