Since there was never any update on the DVC page and I searched here, I wanted to post our experience from last night’s event. The event was at Gaston’s Tavern and Gaston was not going to arrive till 8pm so they told us to come back. Not sure if he was supposed to be there at 7 or it will be 8 pm. Again, not details or updates from anything official DVC. When we came back at around 8, the line was 10 minutes at most. It was interaction and pictures with Gaston in the tavern, an iced cinnamon/apple cake thing and a frozen drink. It was fairly quick and a nice treat. I wish we had known what it was since we had already eaten so many treats. It was a nice little event. I had hoped for ornament or something keepsake like I have seen from the DVC Hoop De Do dinner. Anyhow, worth a stop for a few treats and laugh with Gaston.
 
We enjoyed ourselves on Thursday. Gaston went on about his upcoming wedding with Belle.

We went after the fireworks, and enjoyed the frozen drink.
 
Thank you for posting this! I’ve been wondering what the member event was going to be 😊
 
We went on 11/9 (first party) and thought this was cute and a lot of fun! Gaston was great and the snacks were very good - I'm still not sure what it was, was it a mini cinnamon roll? It was warm and gooey and very good. There was also an accordion player inside for added atmosphere. Nice little event and definitely worth a stop if you're at a party when it's occurring.

Do you happen to know if we have another couple staying with us in our DVC villa, if they be able to attend this as well or is it exclusive to DVC members , no guests( they do have tickets to the party ?)

My friend was with me last year and it wasn’t a problem. But I don’t know if there is a limit with how many you can bring.

Thank you! it will just be my husband and myself(both members) and our adult daughter, our grand daughter and her future husband, so hopefully that will be allowed.

It would be silly not to allow it.
You can bring guests to the DVC lounge, this looks like a similar thing, something paid with DVC marketing budget. They want non-members to have a taste of the DVC perks. And from the MVMCP perspective, if people are busy somewhere else, they free up space for other paying guests.

That won’t be a problem at all.
 
In 2021 when it was an After Hours thing instead of a party, there was a DVC area for fireworks veiwing. Is that a thing during parties? I didn't know about it until the morning after I attended the after hours thing lol. This time I'll have my kids so I'm trying to be more prepared.

I have not heard of its and there was not one last year.
 
FWIW - This states it is a Blue Card event only. I underlined the sentence.
