Looks like Diagon Alley Grand Opening is June 20 or 21

Woohoo! I'll be there in exactly 4 weeks and would have been so disappointed if it wasn't open yet. I can't wait! :cool1:
 

Wouldn't count on that date...More like a week later.
 
Gosh I hope not a week later, the suspense is killing me!!! We'll be there next week the 17th-21st and I'll be so upset if they don't open anything until we leave!

I could always take a long weekend trip down with the kids if I have to, but DH cannot. This is his last vacation week of the year :sad2:
 
I'm hoping not a week later since we come in a week later on the 28th :) I lived through the opening weekend of WWOHP and don't really want to do that with DA too.

I lived thru opening weekend too! I timed my trip ASSUMING it would be open end of May, no of course not. I do believe YOU will be there for opening weekend. But look on the bright side, that is bragging rights!!! :goodvibes I think I will hit or miss soft opening but would so prefer to be there when it was for sure open but can't control everything...:guilty:

We will be arriving on the 28th as well. I also was hoping to avoid an opening weekend, especially since it will be at Cabana Bay instead of our usual HRH. Darn lazy river enticing the children. Was there any special merchandise with the opening of WWOHP to celebrate the grand opening?

So you think it will open that late? I really hope not what with everyone originally thinking it would open next wk :(

From what I've been reading on various websites, the grand opening will be 6/27 or 6/28. I've also seen where soft openings probably won't happen until after the media event next week. So...starting 6/18 or 6/19 the chances of soft openings is excellent.

Yes the project obviously is behind....soft opening AFTER the 25th. Grand opening that weekend......Not sure if NOTHing will be opened prior to the 25th/26th...not sure how that will work but I wouldn't expect much if anything prior to the 25th/26th

Today's weather didn't help...major storms throughout the Orlando area most of the day and in fact we are w/o power at work right now. Luckily we have a generator but I work right off of Sand Lake Road just past Universal.

A recent leak posted first on a site not to be mentioned but reposted on Orlando United points to an alternate version of the Diagon Alley Flash Splash on Universal Studio Orlando's website that lists June 30th as the opening date.

Surprised they are thinking of opening on a Monday instead of the weekend before but...no matter. End of June works...dates are interchangeable.
