Green Like Irish with Saint Patrick's Day celebration music, food and green drinksGreen Army Men in Paradise PierGhostly Green at the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, hosted by friendly ghouls

Best of all, your friends will be green with envy that you'll get to see a short sneak peek of the upcoming film*Muppets: Most Wanted—coming to theaters March 24, 2014—which stars someone who knows a thing or two about being green, Kermit the Frog.

Hmmm to register or not to register?? I'd be all over this if it weren't for my 7-yr old who would start to meltdown come 9-10pm. Decisions, decisions!

 

[got2travel]

I don't get what this has to do with expiring passes?

***edits, now I see the statement about this only being available to expiring passes

This promo would be offered when I won't be able to participate. Oh well......thank you for the information anyway. I think the people that are best served by an AP, are those that live close enough to DLR so as visit often. If I am not missing out on one thing, it's another. Getting to become a bit annoying at this point!

 

[brighteyes084]

We are going to be arriving on that day for our last trip on our AP's....That would be awesome to attend. Do we have to receive this e-mail to be able to go??? I have not seen anything

This is what I'm wondering too. Someone on another site mentioned getting an invite in the mail. Do you literally have to receive an invite or are you "invited" by meeting the dates criteria?

I was leaving DLR on the 17th. I could extend another day but that would involve changing hotel, flight, shuttle, etc. so I'd love to know if I can even get in.

 

[heybets30]

Huh ... We meet the dates criteria, but didn't get anything in mail or email! Could it have been sent to more local/regional APs exclusively?? We are in Chicagoland, and wouldn't even consider changing our April reservations to attend. Our trip in April will be the one where we don't have to pay for entry!! I.e., our last trip was the breakeven cost of buying APs, this is our freebie soooo worth it!!

Just got a postcard in the mail today

I got this postcard in the mail today too and my pass doesn't expire until December.

Yes, but those who have expiring passes can bring up to 5 guests, as long as they have valid AP's for that date. It doesn't matter when the guests AP's expire.

And I'm pretty sure it's designed to "encourage" us to renew our AP's.

I think you can just go to the registration page.

Interesting.

Me too! I got the over-sized postcard in the mail and my passes don't expire until well after June. Maybe they decided to open it to all AP holders...

 

[AZlady]

I expire 3/16 and did not get an invite.

 

[figment_jii]

I expire 3/16 and did not get an invite.

The special event is on 3/17, so that might be why you did not get the invite. It sounds like you have to have a valid AP to participate.

 

[MorganM]

Does anyone have any reviews from going to this? I would love to know if you guys thought it was worth going

 

[CassieF]

I actually went to all three that they have had so far, the March St Patty's one, the June Summer one, and the September "fall back" one. The September was the most well done, although June wasn't bad.

The March one was the first, and had the least structure, longest waits, fewest characters, etc. A Green Party but no Maleficent? It was basically just Mike by monsters that was special, but they did have a bunch of green lights up and WOC fountains/lights were all green all night.

The June one had more character stations, maybe 9, and some rare characters, Carl from Up, Lilo and Stitch, Mickey and Friends in beach wear, etc.

the Sept had 11 or 12 character stations, mostly all rare characters! The character lines were super long though, and only with splitting up and me holding spots of my niece were we able to meet all the movie characters as we had to do two per character location since they swapped out every half hour.

Thanks so much for taking the time to respond. This gives me a better idea of what to expect

 

[mjlum]

How far ahead do they announce? The last party was for AP holders up to dec 5th. Waiting to hear about the next group and when it will be held. How did you get into all 3?

 

[CassieF]

Those with expiring APs can register 5 guests, so between me, my sister and my brother, we covered all three times. A new one has been announced for Nov 18th...we don't have any expiring APs this round so if anyone has a couple of extra spots and doesn't mind registering me and my sister we'd be so grateful!
