Can you get a VQ and a an iLL$ for Guardians?

Also, absolute rubbish having THREE paid LL attractions in Epcot (or any park).

According to the link below you could do VQ and ILL for Rat so I’d imagine the same applies to Guardians. Big question is if all spots are filled before you can sign up for both.

Update:​

‘Hocus Pocus 2’ Materializing September 30 on Disney+​

The moment many have waited nearly 30 years for will finally come this September as “Hocus Pocus 2” will finally debut on Disney+, featuring the returns of Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy as the iconic Sanderson Sisters.

I don’t think Epcot will go to 3 ILL. They will tweak it August 6.

‘Disney Enchantment’ Finale Modified to Add Extra Lasers & Pyro​

Recently, some changes were quietly made to the finale of “Disney Enchantment” at the Magic Kingdom to include new laser effects and some extra rounds of fireworks.

The new version of the finale hearkens back to the former “Happily Ever After” with an extra set of flares launching to the left and right of Cinderella Castle as Angela Bassett says “You are the magic”. After, purple and yellow lasers emerge from below the 50 icon on the castle as even more fireworks launch during the finale. The show is then capped off with one red Mickey Mouse silhouette-shaped firework.

Stairwell Reconstruction Underway For The Villas at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa​

As sections of Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa are currently undergoing reconstruction and renovation for the upcoming Disney Vacation Club Resort Studios at the resort, we spotted a set of stairs undergoing full reconstruction at The Villas at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa.

This staircase is being reconstructed after being dismantled.

The actual stairs are back, but new paneling has yet to be installed around the staircase.

As a complete roller coaster chicken and someone who gets dizzy, I WILL be watching ahead of time to see if I can handle it!!! Let’s just say my first time on a big rollercoaster, back in high school on a class trip, didn’t go so well

Late to the party on this, but we were just there and while we weren't able to ride, our waiter at Space 220 said that he rode it for the cast preview and felt awful afterward it was so spinny, he said it was worse than orange mission space. He had a rough shift after he rode it.

Good Morning All!

When I went I was crazy excited. The theming was awesome, the lift and everything was great. The drinks were fine and the salad starter was nice enough. The main course was AWFUL. Cold burger, kept getting it wrong etc. Super expensive as well. If I were you I’d just get drinks.

It would be nice if they actually added a mention and maybe a projection of the man who is the reason Magic Kingdom exists today on the 50th anniversary of the park opening.

I know that there are pro and con reviews on Space 220, but I've eaten there twice during my last two trips (once for lunch and once for dinner), and both times food, drink and service were excellent. And the atmosphere is very cool.

We had a similar experience. Not rushing to go back. . .

We went once and loved it. Our food was good and we enjoyed it.

We had the same experience. It ended up being one of our top 3 fave meals of a 20 night WDW trip. The restaurant is super cool, our food was delicious and prepared perfectly, we both cleaned our plates and that is rare! And the drinks were all good. Also, all of the CMs were awesome. We both said we couldn't wait to go back. I was nervous about going because of all the bad reviews, but I'm so glad we did.
