DIS 20th Anniversary Event - Official Info

[Capwkidd]

Yay a Boardwalk Inn party is starting!

I keep thinking about moving over to the boardwalk

 

[NeuroCindy]

With today's podcast being cancelled, I'm just curious if the other events will still be announced this week? I'm anxiously waiting so I can finish my plans.

Me too. I'm waiting to hear so I can decide how to split my days.

Nah ...c'mon over to the Poly. Guaranteed good times at Trader Sam's!

I am Poly curios as well... Not much for me to do at Trader Sam's as I do not drink

That isn't true at all. Have you been to Trader Sam's? Going there is quite an experience even if you're just having a Coke. And they also have several tropical non-alcoholic drinks if you want something fancy. The appeal of Trader Sam's, in my opinion, is the atmosphere and what goes on in there. We can go anywhere for a drink. We go there for the show.

They do also have a small appetizer menu. Not many choices but the items we've had have all been very good. It's just a snack though. Don't go expecting a meal.

I do not think I have ever been inside either Trader Sam's

Poly is probably my favorite resort right now, but there are two I really want to check out (Beach/Yacht Club and Animal Kingdom Lodge) and I'm getting Boardwalk off my list on this trip.

I don't drink, and I really enjoyed Trader Sam's.

Watching the DisUnplugged last week (Yes I am behind). My family decided to, at the spur of the moment, to book a trip to be there for the festivities. We just paid for our registrations and are hoping against all hope that the party at Epcot has not sold out. Waiting for the registration number on pins and needles.

All is good. We are all set to go and have our tickets to the party.

Like nothing ....at all???

They have a good selection of non-alc options ...and fun

I changed hotels as well. I was booked at POFQ but moved to the WL. Since I'm solo on this trip I figured it would be my only chance to check out WL. I also added the dining plan, I never used it before and figured it was time I tried it for myself.

I was cleaning out my carry on and found one, it hadn't aged in 5 months. I should of saved it for you. Lol

Ryno Clavin is the lover of such cookies. Checkout his review of Cosmic Rays.

You could always gorge yourself on amazing appetizers and drink the nonalcoholic drinks. Has anyone considered how fast Trader Sam's fills up. I don't think there is a chance we could all fit in there.

Actually you should have kept it in a sandwich bag and offered it up for the auction. We could raise all kinds of money for GKTW. Who would pay $100 to see Ryno eat another blue snowman cookie from the Christmas party. Its only 6 months old!

If so they have the outside area which is really nice and usually has lots be music

Plus they have a drink that is only available outside - the spikey pineapple

Sam's is quite small. As Phil said, there is outside seating but then you miss the whole atmosphere and entertainment.

Just received official word - the party has been extended to 1AM!!

I know it was mentioned a few weeks ago on the show and there was confusion about it until we got the official word from Disney.

The official hours for the Party on 6/1/2017 will be 10PM - 1AM.

I am still working with Disney on a schedule for the evening and I will get that posted as soon as it's finalized.

For those still waiting for other events during the week to be announced please be patient - Pete and the guys are working on the final details of those.

I realize the planners out there are going crazy but as you can see many of these details take time to work out.

I think we need to have Kathy do a guided tour of Journey Into Imagination during the party...

Some new info for party goers......

Just found out International Gateway will be open at the end of the event for guests staying at an Epcot resort to exit the park.

I don't know if it will only be open at the very end of the event or if people can leave early - still getting those details - but I am being told that those wanting to use that exit will be escorted by a Cast Member so you won't be able to go on your own.

Some of the best news for sure!

Glad to hear you got confirmation on the International Gateway! I had a feeling that a CM Escort was going to be the solution there - can't have us running off and hiding in Morocco or something.
