Roughly what time each night goes the electric water pageant currently pass by the CR?

10 pm

10 pm

Wow, that late! Thanks.

Wow, that late! Thanks.

Yeah, CR is the last stop so tends to be late. Note EWP times do move around a bit throughout the year as fireworks times and things like daylight savings time change. I’ve found the app often has info that’s kept relatively up to date:

Thank you. I was trying to find something like that.
Btw, which do you think is noisier the theme park with traffic noise or the boat noise & electrical water pageant on the lake side?

When we were there at the beginning of May it was 9:45 pm. But the fireworks weren’t back yet.

We were at BLT last week and EWP did run at 10.

I’m going to say the TPV side is “noisier” overall, mainly due to the constant buses. The kneeling bus warning beeps from the MK bus station pierce through the air. But it’s a fun/exciting noise, IMO, and isn’t really impactful with the balcony door closed. Not much noise on the Bay Lake side, although that EWP volume seems like it’s always mega loud the way it comes off the water/bounces off the building.

In normal times you’d get the boat toots from the CR-WL-FW boat, but that’s still not back in service and those are pretty minor noises, IMO.

We've always stayed on the lake side and I've never found it particularly noisy.

Thanks very much! (I agree about the EWP volume! Never heard such loud speakers)

Maybe I just like Disney noise

Anyone have construction updates from the last few days? We are doing a weekend trip for my youngest’s 6th birthday the 24th-26th and trying to decide between contemporary garden and beach club. His fave is the monorail and always wanted to stay at “the one the monorail goes through” but don’t want construction mess to dampen the excitement.

Kids don’t even notice construction.

As long as it’s gv and not std you should be in a good spot not to notice construction.

‘Yes there are tarps in the atrium but the shops , chef mickeys etc are still open.

As a mom of a ds24, they only 6 once. I’d do CR. He will love it. Also it’s pretty quiet for buses n stuff so a good time to go with less guests!

And as a mom of ds23 and ds25, who are still requesting to "stay in the one the monorail goes through" I second that vote! (and we're finally going to do it this coming May, fingers crossed)

LOL - I just booked for May with the same request from my oldest kid who is 21!

Just snagged a BLT room for Halloween night and I'm just catching on that there was possibly a recent soft goods/room renovation. I know about the Incredibles rooms but have BLT rooms been updated as well? I can't seem to find confirmation or photos.

No just the CR Atrium Tower and then on to the South Garden wing. It was a major renovation of each room.

No final rooms are posted just yet looks like Disney is going for a big unveiling. All the hallways in the Atrium still have brown construction materiel up.

Enjoy your trip. I’ll be looking forward to your review. Please post lots of pics of the CL and the whole, hopefully fully-refurbished, hotel
