AP Days - 9/6-10/2/16 - Bring on the post 60th crowds!

[SMD]

So far they've announced that DCA will have a weekly exclusive button, character photo ops, recipe cards, activities and a seasonal showcase. No news on if they'll be at DL this time. This is probably why the Frozen pre-show isn't available after 9/5, because Stage 17 will be where they have the greets and some of the activities, like last time.

It will take the sting off the end of the $1 popcorn promotion. Especially if they have free popcorn again.

This may be a good thing as they start to shut some stuff down in preparation for Halloween at Disneyland.

That said - bring on those free buttons and recipe cards!

lol Literally the exact days between trips. Typical.

Sounds like fun! it's interesting that they're spreading it out to Stage 12 and Paradise Garden Grill and Boardwalk Pizza and Pasta this time around.

Are you leaving on the 5th and returning on the 3rd? Is there any way to extend? If you could add a half day on the 6th, you'd get to take advantage of a lot of what they offer.

Yeah, no can do - but it's fine - on the flip side? I still get to go to DL!

 

[rentayenta]

Yay, we will actually be there for a few days this year!

 

[smartlabelprint]

We're not coming til oct.

 

[cruisehopeful]

Is it worth going out the way for? I am planning on visiting in October and December, but could go up during the event if it is unique and worth going there specifically for that.

 

[Lauren in NC]

FYI - for those of you going later in the date list: not sure if they'll do it again this year, but last year we went during the third week of AP days and were able to get all the buttons and recipe cards for the previous weeks as well!

 

[Winnowill]

Well, phooey. We'll be there 9/2 and again from 10/14-10/17, but not during the AP days.

I went to one last year, and personally I didn't think it was worth going out of the way for.

[mamapenguin]
