DISApalooza 2013 - Official Information Thread

[WebmasterJohn]

Okay, let me ask a dumb question:

What IS Disapalooza??

Hey Lisa

Check out the first post for most of the detail.

Unfortunately this years event is closed to new registrants but maybe you can join us for a future event. Just keep watching this board for announcements.

I absolutely love Whoopi Goldberg, so when I saw she was doing CP, I booked ASAP as I was worried of the package selling out. We need to be at the Boardwalk 30 minutes prior to the taping starting; my plan is to get to Rose & Crown at 12, bat my eyelashes, and hope they take me in a little early to give extra time.

Because I have O.P.S. (Obsessive Planner's Syndrome), I'm now thinking we should do Epcot and CP on Friday instead of Saturday. I don't want to lose 3-4 hours of Epcot time on Saturday between getting to/from the podcast, milling around talking to people, etc. I also don't want to feel rushed through the podcast experience OR through any meals.

Since the podcast taping will be in the Promenade Ballroom, will there be dancing?

Well I hope they have a seat for jack burgin on the pod cast for all the hard work he dose for the show. Or maybe the could do their burgin and bell show live and see how it goes.


Remember anyone playing against jack burgin let him win he works for a bear sanctuary and the last person who beat him let's just say we haven't heard from him.


Disclaimer no one was hurt jack burgin to nice a person to do that they just had to get their picture with Duffy.

I have Biergarten at 12:30! Will be solo...maybe I'll look for y'all...

Hi.
It will be 2 of us (girls trip)but definitely look for us. We're going to try to get there a bit early.

John--in regards to the taping--will you know ahead of time if there are spots available? Or, do we need to be there and hope we can get in? I cannot afford the party, but was hoping to see the podcast.

 

[bradisgoofy]

Thank you, John. I now understand and will be standing at the door "hat in hand" hoping for the best.

But that's when the party is!

Oh, I know. I'm planning to get to Epcot early Friday, spend the day, go to 6:45 CP, then head to the Studios.

How long is CP, anyway? Like an hour?

We are doing AK on Friday. Heading back to the resort, then to the party. How and when would you head out from CBR. We have hopper passes, so could go through Epcot. I thought maybe we could go to Epcot, go out the back entrance, then go see the decorations at BC, then head to DHS. Would that work? What kind of time line would I need. We have the bus service going back. See you all at the party!

Unless you really want to stop by BC, you could just use Disney transportation. DHS closes at 8 that night, but transportation usually runs up to two hours afterwards. Remember that you need to arrive at the party an hour early (9 pm) anyway.

Weren't people saying that buses wouldn't take you to the parks (only home from parks) once parks closed...I think someone was saying that earlier on in the thread

yes once that park closes they only take guest back to their resort they wont take guest back to the park unless you have your car parked in the lot.

Just noticed my ticker said 3 weeks 2 days till the party! Wow, that crept up fast! Guess I ought to start packing!

 

[ShesAPirate]

Isn't there a boat from Epcot to DHS? Would that continue to run after DHS closes (but with Epcot obviously still open)?

 

[UConnFan]

We don't need park tickets right? Just DAP ticket?

 

[rlduvall]

You are correct. The park will have already been closed for a couple of hours by the time our party starts.

We must be getting close. Our credentials arrived in today's mail.
