Mardi Gras Concerts 2017

[TheRealDrDisney]

Any rumors on the acts coming for 2017?

Thanks!

Nothing out yet


Many of us homies are anxiously waiting for the line up too!

Watching your thread, waiting also. This will determine whether I get an AP or not.

Me too...our Feb visit is totally up in the air awaiting their concert schedule. I have both a Sat-Mon and a Sun-Tues ressie booked at RPR...plus can't buy tics yet (will either be seasonal passes which won't allow park entry on concert days) vs reg tickets (no restrictions). Was sent a survey several months ago gauging interest in attending weekday Mardi Gras concerts - so they may be considering more than just Sat night this year.

We have an AP Power Pass. Will these potentially have blackout dates during Mardi Gras?

 

[TheRealDrDisney]

You would think with the event beginning less than a month from now there would be more info! Oh well, hopefully soon.

Some entertainers have been lined up but UO won't release the entire line UO until all acts are locked in

I have the first weekend booked at rpr with the AP rate


Not sure if the lower AP have block outs
I keep renewing my preferred and have not kept up with the other AP benefits

Check the AP chart for the breakdown of the different ap's and their benefits

Does anyone know if this definitely means I'm safe to pull the trigger on Seasonal Passes for a trip Feb 12-15, or might they add more events later?

 

[macraven]

Did you check the seasonal blackout date site ?

 

[mya1k9]

Booked for APH rate at RPR, this means I can't be as flexible with my 3rd day but that's ok. Excited to get express passes we are going March 1-7 and staying at RPR for the first 2 nights. Now I just pray that I don't have trouble upgrading my 3 day park hopper. They won't ad extra acts will they??

If you're talking to me, none of February is within the Seasonal Pass blackout period:

But from what I understand, UO may be off-limits if there is a concert that night.

There don't appear to be any concerts during my trip. I was just asking if anyone's ever known them to add additional concerts (and thus blackout days) after the fact.

Not that I've ever seen. You should be good to go.

 

[macraven]

Lol
I'm usually talking to myself here

I don't have a seasonal pass and have to pull the link up to answer questions about it

That's why I said check the chart

 

[shh]

Thank you so much for posting the list! That first wknd would have been awesome, since I'm a country gal. Missed it by a week! I may see if I can change my dates.

Meh...I wuz thinkin' of sneakin' in a little trip for The Gager and I, but nuttin' much there grabs me and sez "Blow your SWA RR points on a short trip to hear me sing!" ONJ is tempting though...

The one time I will be there for Mardi Gras and no interested in the act that will preform when I'm there

Boo hop.....
