checking back also ,,

I keep looking everyday in hopes for July

any clue as to why they are holding off ?

No idea but they haven't released Food and Wine dates/info yet either. I get to make my ADRs on March 20 and I'm really hoping all this stuff is released before that.

I really wish they will give us the dates already. I'm so tired of stalking the site!

The bounce back was already slim. I excpect this to be even slimmer, but shuold hear something in the next 45 days.

This is really getting irritating. This is the last thing I need to get nailed down for our trip and I hate having things up in the air.

And we wait....

At least the good news is the risk of the Plaza Garden version selling out right away is low....

Anyone know if you can take a plate of food with you into the garden?

The plates they give you are “real,” so I don’t think they’d let you take them off of the terrace. When we went this past week, my son wasn’t super hungry so I let him take 4-5 little desserts with him on a napkin and no one said a word. We also took extra bottles of water with us into the garden.

We didn't take a plate, but we did have a napkin with a few things on it. We walked ourselves over to the viewing area, but no one said anything to us as we left.

So…has anyone heard of a possible reason for the delayed ADR openings. I’m going late August and really want this for our trip.

Hi @Melissa Messina - to the DIS!

Hard to say just why they do it this way. It happens from time to time. I tend to think it has to do with the fireworks schedule not being solidified, but that’s just speculation on my part. Disney has tinkered with the HEA times currently on the schedule for the summer (for example, 9:15 in July vs 9 last year)... so maybe there’s something up there that needs to stop moving around before dessert party times are finalized.

But again, just speculation from an outside observer.

Thanks for the info and the welcome . I’m glad I found this forum, seems like I’ll be in good company checking daily!!

I have been faithfully checking every day since Dec. 18. There are so many of us waiting now that I feel like the site will crash when it finally does open up!

Indeed!! I have never done something everyday for this long before. If only my want for this dessert party was as good as going to the gym. Lol.

 

[GADisneyDad14]

I know they aren’t related, but the FEA/Illuminations dessert party got some dates (for April) added today. Maybe something with HEA/MK will shake loose this week!

 

[SaintsManiac]

I'll just be over here waiting for 9/1.

 

[Melissa Messina]

I'll just be over here waiting for 9/1.

And me for 8/30. Just need to say again…I’m so glad I found you guys. It’s good to know I’m not the only one willing to check everyday for amazing Disney Magic!

 

[ktate82]

I'm still waiting for July 3rd and 4th ,, and so worried I'll miss when and if they do open these
up

Add me to that list too....

 

[ITALIANNYC]

Do you get a refund if the fireworks are canceled for these due to weather?
