So I watched some of the Livestream after it was over. Here are some of the notes I took:
Event has 5 Chapters. The dates are August 26, August 27, September 3, September 10 and September 17. The event ends on September 22. This is a timed event.
The update should start hitting our feeds on August 24th. As always some platforms may get before others.
There are going to be 7 characters:
- Pongo
- Penny - Premium character and available in a bundle
- Lucky
- Patch
- Perdita
- Rolly - Premium character and available in a bundle
- Cruella
If I heard correctly, 4 new attractions/buildings. A couple of concessions as well. There is no new land for this event. No new features. Balancing will occur as usual. They said to check the Release notes on August 23rd for complete list.
There will be two Tapper events. The Gem Crab one will take place during the event. If I heard the dates of the second Tapper event, it will be shortly after the event ends (but I could have heard incorrectly). There will also be 3 Striking Gold events. The Lion King and Toy Story characters will be part of the Striking Gold events, along with various attractions (see Release notes).
The helpers for this overall timed event will be The Lion King. They listed 10 characters, plus 3 Attractions.
