CLOSED - AK-Jammin' Jungle Parade Ending May 31st & FoTLK (Reopens June 1st)

[monique5]

We are approaching May & FP+ reservations have been made for June. There has been speculation on the Rumors & News thread, so I thought would start an official thread here since both in AK. Most websites, stating July 1st for FoTLK, but posts indicate 1st week of June. Any updates on dates? Websites?

JJP is listed for entire month of June. This is due to no official end date yet. Updates? Websites?

Edit: JJP ends May 31st. FoLK reopening Sunday, June 1st.

Thanks!

On another forum, it's been reported the FOLK Cast reported to rehearsals this week in the new theater. There is still continuing work going on around the outside of the theater but the interior is good to go. There is reportedly a Cast party that will take place inside the theater on the 7th.

With rehearsals already in progress for a show that hasn't changed much, the opening can't be that far off... well, not as far off as July.

Ooooh, I am so happy that my favorite show might be back when I return And I really hope that my favorite parade is still there for at least one more viewing, please... Can we assume that if it's on the calendar then it is likely expected to still run on those days?

The parade may or may not run through June, but sadly, just being listed on the calendar is not always a trustworthy indicator.

Nobody knows.

I guess it's extremely wishful thinking that it will be open by Memorial Weekend?

I hope that isn't right. We are going to be at AK on June 6 and have never saw the parade. I wanted to see it before it went away.

I hope FOTLK is open!

Really hoping FoTLK will be open on June 30th. It is one of my favorites at WDW and I am anxious to see if the new show is as good as the old one. I am hoping they will really try to have it open for such a busy week leading into July 4th.

I was hoping it would run through June 6th. I wanted to see it 1 more time. Oh, well!

On another thread, PP posted that FoTLK might be open the 1st week of June. I'm still waiting/hoping this is true!

For some reason, I think the respective openings and closings are going to co-incide with one another. I'm counting on seeing one or the other on my June 11th date there, but not counting on seeing both.

I will double check with him. We were just talking about it since they just did bids on jobs and he was happy to get his same bid starting June 1st which was the same time the parade ended.

I *might* remember the date wrong though... but I was pretty sure.

Update: my surfing paid off.

The cast has not been given an end date.

 

[Suellen]

It ends May 31st. Just as my friend that works the parade was told.

The cast was only just told yesterday that it is May 31st.

So, anyone know when FoTLK will restart? I bought a ticket for Harambe nights, but found out this is not the same as the FoTLK show. I would love to see both and will be there June 1-8th.
