*** Official Jollywood Nights 2024 ***

[thegreatdonaldo]

I attended opening night and last night's party (11/16). Despite the opening night being sold out and this last night not, it was shocking how much more crowded it felt last night! My cynical view is that they let fewer people in the same night the bloggers and vloggers attend to make things appear smooth and carefree. Everywhere we tried to go had a 30+ wait (food locations excluded, those were walk up or 5 min wait). The character lines moved so much slower and some CMs gave poor advice (like telling people to wait on the side for Scrooge instead of getting in line so when he switched with Clarice, they wouldn't be at the back of the line ). Comparatively it was not as fun, but Jazzy Nights at the Hollywood Brown Derby was pretty good. Loved the music and atmosphere, food and drink just ok.

Were the ride waits 30+ too?

I wonder how much it being a weekend night makes a difference. There are a couple of separate threads on this forum about the 13th, having short character and ride lines.

Nope! 4 of us were monitoring MDE all night since we are also doing a Saturday night party! Slinky still had 35 minutes but everything else stayed near 15 or under, especially after 10!

I would love to see your outfit!

I’ll post when we have it altogether. My costumer (dd22) is helping get it together. My trip starts on 12/09, so we still have time.
