Thinking about flying down from Portland, going to cost me about $600 to do this. Is it worth it, has anyone gone to one of these type of things before. Don't plan on renewing my membership after our trip this summer and really want to get to do a special AP event. I am a photographer and going to try to book a few photo sessions down there for the 2 days I would be there, to help with the cost. Thoughts.... if you have done something like this tell me what exciting things might go on.
I registered my DH and I for the 3rd just for the heck of it when it opened up, figuring I'd cancel later. Well, DH surprised me last night by telling me he'd taken off work and booked a hotel for a long weekend! We're driving down Saturday!
We went to a AP renewal party last September in DCA. It was lovely! They had a preview of the Oswald M&G and also had several other rare characters - Remy & Emil, Wreck-it Ralph and Vanellope, Darkwing Duck, Chip & Dale Rescue Rangers, and a few others. Our kid fell asleep in his stroller at the start of the party, so we pretty much decided to just wait in character lines and eat snacks, and we ended up staying till midnight!
I do wonder how much more crowded it'll be since it's in just a small section of DL and it's open to everyone, but, at the same time, it's a lot less notice.
You can call or message them on Facebook and they will send you a new one I know a lot of people signed up on their phones and weren't able to print the conformation and Disneyland Today on FB told them to message them to get a new conformation.
