Harry potter event

[trips44]

Any idea of crowds? Probably staying on site so will have express pass; will on site guests be able to get into special events? Not the special package as that was sold out fast so just regular guests at rpr. Is it worth going to as first time universals? 3 kids ages 13-10-8. Any help appreciated
Is 3 days enough for both parks?

From what I believe from what I read, the package basically takes the place of standing in lines for the events. We'll be there at that time too, and imagine there will be some long lines in our future.

If we were first-timers I would wait until I saw the schedules and really REALLY think about if they meant enough to my family to wait for. Luckily you have older kids who could handle the lines if needed!

i received the UO email about the parry hotter gala event jan 24-6 months ago.


from what i remember about it, the special events with the actors, are for those that booked that special.

don't think that anyone outside of the special package can do the special events and signings.
a lot of it will be conducted at the hotel.

i almost booked my stay for the last week of january but instead made it earlier in january in order to avoid the event.
