Well they are still running FOTLK which is interesting to me.

That is interesting. Would make things a lot easier if they gave us detailed explanations behind their motivations

This list just made me really excited!

I certainly don’t understand the logic of the theater shows, some of the smaller theaters like Lightning McQueen will be open while some of the largest like Nemo will be closed

Perhaps it’s based on having live performers?

I agree. I’m curious about that. I’m curious why they, for example, chose to open FotLK and you’re right, HS capacity will be even lower with fewer shows open.

It's one of my daughter's favorite rides! She'll be happy.

Is there a confirmation that it will be open? I don’t see it on the list.

The stage shows not running due to CM safety makes a lot of sense. I imagine if they wanted to open them they could distance people inside no problem (just like they will be in restaurants) but there’s not a lot you can do when CMs are singing and dancing in close proximity.

Which is why no Broadway shows are open. Makes sense!!

As a music teacher having to work through what next school year will look like, the aerosolization of air when you sing is the issue. They're still doing research on how to do shows, choirs, and especially congregational singing. So the sing alongs are especially dangerous. When you do a proper inhale, the droplets settle and then are shot out like pistols when you force the air out, in simple terms.

As peasants, we can all just sleep outside of the castle!

This is the only type of camping I will accept.

I agree with the few of you who are confused about festival of the Lion King, though I haven't seen the show yet to potentially give you a reason why.

Peoplemover? It is on the list! "Tomorrowland Transit Authority Peoplemover"

You also couldn’t pay me to ride Mission:space rn

yes. It is shown on the WDW website list. I posted link a page or so back.

My only thought is that the theater doesn’t have a bad seat, so they could space out better. Skip the front rows, etc. it’s huge.

As usual, their announcements really don’t say much .

That picture makes it look like they allowed in about 25 people!

I still think the number of guests will be fixed like a hard ticket event and not based on a somewhat unknown percentage depending on so many variables, then increase as things get better or decrease if worse.
decreasing will be very hard ..after they take reservations...

Peoplemover? It is on the list! "Tomorrowland Transit Authority Peoplemover"

I’m so glad that ride and Splash Mountain are going to be open!

 

[Carol Jackson]

My goal once I check in on 7/20 is to ride EVERY SINGLE ATTRACTION at every Park. Even Tiki Room.

Shanghai and Hong Kong used percentages. I’d guess WDW will start with a percentage and when able to increase will do so with a hard number like Shanghai where they’ve increased by 5,000.
