best way to get to toontown quickly...

[Mommy2PrincessAbby]

So, we have TT Madness tix, and plan on using them on Friday morning... I am guessing that the rope drop will be at 9, and normally TT opens an hour later, but because of the Morning Madness thing, it'll open right at 9 too... what is the best way to get there as close to 9 as possible? We are saving all of our toontown stuff for the early entry to it...

Going end of October, and staying at DLH if that helps...

Thanks!

Since it's a Friday, there's no EE that day. (so no one will already be in the park).

Get there between 8:40 - 8:50 for 9am rope drop. Of the people there:

- 40% are heading for Nemo.
- 10% are heading for Indy.
- 10% are headning toward SM.
- 20% are heading for PP & Dumbo.
- 10% are heading elsewhere.

You & the other 10% (going to TT) need to walk purposefully down Main St. to the Hub. When in front of the castle veer to the right & walk down the wide trail between the Castle & the Matterhorn. Keep walking (towards IASW). On the left side of IASW the walkway dips down (& under an overpass/bridge) & into Toontown.

I believe there is a CM on that walkway (before you get to bridge) who let the privilidged few with Mickey's EE tickets into toontown. I doubt it will be a frantic rush (based on the %s above), but getting there as early as you can, I'm sure will have it's benefits (like little to no lines the first few minutes).

Have fun.

We just got back from a trip and did the Toontown Madness. Granted, gates open a little earlier in summer but I think the same principal will apply.

Gates to DL opened at 8:00 a.m. so Toontown Madness also started at 8:00 a.m. We lined up at 7:30 and walked straight back to Towntown. When we got there, Mickey, Pluto, Goofy, Chip & Dale were just standing around to greet us. There were maybe 5 or 6 people ahead of us. My little 2-year old got to run right up and give the characters hugs. It was great!

The Toontown Madness ceremony didn't start until 8:20. That gave us time to meet & greet characters, and then head over to the City Hall area to get chairs. The ceremony lasted for maybe 15 minutes. They picked an honorary family - maybe it will be yours!!

Then, we headed over to Roger Rabbit and rode it 2x because the line was less than 5 minutes.

By then, I think the "regular" hours had caught up to us.

From our experience, it was more like 75% of the people rushed towards Nemo. Made it nice for those of us going to Toontown with little ones.

Last year we had a AAA package deal and didn't even use our TT Madness tix.
This year I don't want to miss it.
We're staying at PPH, do DLR guests get admission to TT Madness too?

 

[Mommy2PrincessAbby]

I think you must have to buy your TT tix if you want them... mine came with our DLR hotel pax thru Costco...

As far as I know, the MTTMM tickets only come with a package.

Do you have the ones from last year? Maybe they will be usable? I think the only way to get them is to buy a package.

I think I do have the ones from last year but they say "Expires Jan 2007"
