July 15-17 Wild Speculation Thread

OK. Now that's Disney has made it pretty darn clear that there'll be a hard ticket event on the "official" 50th see here for details, what do you all think they're going to do? What do you guess the cost will be? How limited an event will it be?

No prizes for correct guesses - except perhaps a salute from your fellow LoT'ers

AAAAAHHHHHHH - I MUST GO!

50 hours at the park - I'm there, to ride every attraction in chronological order. The Geek Quest is on!

I think this is merely going to be a tour. Judging by the description posted, it would make the most sense & explain why TDA didn't want Jim Hill to give one of his own tours currently.

I doubt this will be a separate ticket required to enter the park. The day of the actual anniversary will probably be like New Years Eve or the 3 days after Christmas; the park will reach maximum capacity & ticket sales will be suspended.

That's my guess.

I'm guessing it will focus on opening the secret chamber under the Matterhorn and unfreezing Walt followed by dancing the night away up in his retro apartment with Mr. Lincoln. Sorry I won't be able to make it.

I think it has to be more than a tour - otherwise Disney would be doing it for the entire run of the 50th - to good a way to make some revenue. The stated timeframe has me hopefull, perfect for a 50 hour party - and they know we want one.

arrive early (to wait for bag check to open) and plan to stay the entire day.

the resort anticipates the demand to be overwhelming, therefore, NO GUEST, including reosrt hotel guests are guaranteed admission. also, if you exit the park, there is no guarantee of re-admission.

We have early admission, as we booked through WDT. I wonder if that will be any sort of advantage in getting into the park, or if they will even honor it on the 17th?

I've never used it before, as I hate getting up early, but it may come in handy this time around.

I am inclined to think, or hope, that €uro is correct. If they do, does anyone have a guess as to what the ticket might cost?

So, this is basicially the same event for a 3 day period? That is, three separate days of the same event?

€uroMeinke · 03-29-2005, 12:44 PM

I predict this will begin at 10:00 PM Friday (July 15) - to start a full 50 hour celebration through the weekend.

If this is true, I will do whatever I can to stay awake for the entire 50 hours, and will finish in toontown where my hallucinations will feel at home.

How would something like that work for those of us who have purchased Park Hoppers? An additonal ticket? And per night? (We don't arrive until noon on the 16th).
