DISApalooza 2011 – DIS/DISUnplugged/Dreams Unlimited Travel December Event Details

[sdlong329]

safetymom, I did not see any dates (other than the June 16th date at the end)

DisneyKevin, Thanks for your reply. Planning is essential ... there are some things that simply can't wait (ie: travel dates, accomodations, etc). Fortunately, waiting for resolution of bus transportation to/from Universal should be easy ... FOR US! I'm glad *I* am not involved with that task! Thanks for your time and assistance!

In addition to the updated transportation information I also modified some of the text. Some of the post was referring to what we were going to do in the future and that stuff has already been done. Seemed counter-intuitive.

I also tried to organize the information by topic for easy reference. Now you can see it's broken down by how to book rooms at USO, how to register for the event and info on transportation.

I realize that there is no way I can organize the post to make everyone happy. I feel this is the best way to display the information.

I will now return to updating my Big Book of Grievances.......

... always appreciative when someone else is willing to go through the motions, and wade through the muck and myre!

I have been thinking about this since the announcement of Disaplooza 2011 event, has anyone one heard the estimated maximum capacity of WWoHP???

My family got to visit July 2010, and very shortly after we got in the area met maximum capacity. It was painfully crowded.

I know one thing for sure, 700 of our favorite folks will make the WWoHP an amazing time.

Thanks!

Awesome logo!!

Yay! This better be the trip where we finally meet!

The logo is great and yes, we can meet!

Now, I just have to create the trip.

The capacity for this event is 700?! wowwa!

Ok, I found this on the web, so take it with a grain of salt....


ISLANDS OF ADVENTURE- The Wizarding World of Harry Potter capacity: 1,500; Marvel Super Hero Island capacity: 1,900; The Lost Continent capacity: 1,000; Jurassic Park capacity: 1,900; Toon Lagoon capacity: 600; Seuss Landing capacity: 600.

The capacity for this event is 700?! wowwa!

If I recall correctly, the capacity for the Dec. 2009 Toy Story Mania party was 900 people, and that was for just one ride. People will be more spread out at WWoHP among 3 rides and a few stores.

I just saw this today and was totally surprised to see that ot coincides with our planned December trip. This would be a wonderful surprise for my two Harry Potter loving boys. And it would be a great treat for me too!

Book it ASAP - while there is still space!

Thanks for that and WOW! I am quite amazed at how low those numbers are!!!

I was thinking the same thing. Only 7500 people for park capacity? Guess we are a little conditioned by Disney.

I was unable to go since the Magic & Merriment event was going on at the same time. By the time, D23 allowed peeps go to both events, I never got a ticket.

I say wow because HP (walking) area is cramped. Yes, I realize peeps would be on rides n stores n eating n things.

I really like HP alot when I visited last October (only went once), the only thing I didn't like was all that cramped space. It reminded me of switching classes on high school.

I didn't bother to add it up- but now that you have- I know a "Low" crowd day at MK is about 10,000, and the hard ticket events are limited to 12,000 I think? So I am not ready to buy that the capacity of IOA is 7500. It simply couldn't turn a profit at that number- besides, I have been there when there were at least that many people in line for Spiderman!

I think my numbers are for private parties. I went on a convention website for those numbers. Universal says the entire park "buy-out" would be for 20,000.


I dug further and found that the park was closed last December with fire code crowds of 35,000.

Like you said, grain of salt. Thank you for finding what you could, more than I could find.

Wow though, those numbers seem quite... small. I can't imagine the entire park not being able to absorb more guest than that. Hmmm, this has just sparked my curiosity about max capacity or WWoHP.

Looking forward to seeing everyone at the party! Can't wait for December.

Great research Halloweenqueen, thanks for the footwork.

These numbers seem much more realistic.

Thanks!

So I signed up this morning and got my first email. Does that mean they haven't reached the waitlist point yet? I was afraid I'd missed the opportunity since I just saw it today.
