Moonlight Magic is BACK!

[Bibbidi_Boo]

I definitely could eat two but wouldn't dream of trying to take a cooler of them back to the room

I barely finish one, but TBH I like the cookies and cream mickey head sandwiches better...LOL

Thanks for sharing the details.
We'll be trying to get into one of the AK events, so I have some questions that maybe someone who has attended one of these previously could answer...

• It mentions that the event is 10:00 - 1:00, With the park closing at 9:00, what happens between 9-10?
• It says attendees can arrive starting at 6:00 which is 4 hours before the event supposedly starts. Is this on par with what they do at the other parks as well?
• It says that Genie+ isn't available for the event but wondering how long lines will be for FOP, EE. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Once you get your wristband, you're good to go and do anything you like while they shepherd the other folks out of the park. Closing time doesn't apply to you.

In the past, we've been able to hop on FOP several times during the MM event. Longest line we were ever in was just outside the building. We've never felt that it was crowded at any of the prior year MM events at AK. When something looks busy, maybe move on to something else and then come back.

And Genie+, I know people love it, but I'll be d***ed if I'll give them even more money. I want my FP+ back, but if everybody keeps buying Genie, that'll never happen.

Not sure if this has been asked\answered before, but I have a Beach Club reservation with a check out date of June 16th. There is a DHS Moonlight Magic event on June 16th. Will I be a part of the early registration window or is it only for those with a resort stay that evening?

 

[TinkB278]

Sorry if some has already asked this. Does anyone know if they will keep they Skyliner running during MM?

There were members that could register for the Epcot MM event when they checked out the day of the event.

I wonder if we can make evening Genie+ LL reservations for Epcot MM evening even if we are at a different park during the day, and don’t have a park hopper ticke, just going to Epcot after 6.

I think the app will restrict you to making LL selections for only the park you have a park reservation for.

It lets people book LL for park hopper parks. Maybe you need a park hopper ticket?

My response was based on you stating you did not have park hoppers.

If you had park hoppers, yes you could make LL selections at a different park with return times after 2 pm.

I thought I saw it in this conversation somewhere but can’t find it - however - any GUESS when the HS MM event registration date will be? First event is May 24 and I’m worried because we’re going mid-May on a Grand Canyon tour and won’t necessarily have access to our devices or WiFi - we’ve got Blue Card reservations at Riv for the July event…

My kid always drops her first Mickey bar. Its tradition at this point. (Once she dropped it almost right away and the kind CM gave her a second one, but most of the time now I just buy two for her... if the curse is ever broken, I could always eat the second I guess.)

I believe they're never too young to learn about personal responsibility . "sorry, gonna have to wait for the next moonlight magic and you'll get to try again!"

 

[AmishGuy91]

I just cancelled my 5 tix for 3/17. Let us know if anyone sees them show up as available.

Anyone care to speculate on when registration will open for the HS and the AK events?
Here is my attempt: Assuming they want to keep a similar number of days between registration and the first MM event (Epcot was 22 days with reservation/9-days general registration), I would speculate the registration for the HS event would be roughly May 2nd for those with reservations and May 15th, for the rest of us. For AK, since 22 days falls on July 4th, I would speculate July 6th for those with reservations and July 19th for the rest of us. Disclaimer: This is pure speculation and will likely be wrong, so do not plan around them.

It might be more than 22 days out, in the past its always been more than 30 days since I know was able to cancel the stay with no issues if I wasn't successful in booking. Epcot was just the first one this year so may have made it less time.

If you have a room reservations during one of the event nights, you should get an email prior to the event with registration details.

9/28 our only possiblity with our current reservations. Did everyone here who qualified for the events so far get the email reminder?

on that note, did everyone get in the first round?

expected the 2nd one would go very fast. We were shut out of the Remy slots last year.

Lucky to have have done MK, MGM, Epcot & TL thus far

Where do you see that the AK times are 10:00-1:00? Is that for all of the AK dates?

I was responding to the post Bibbidi Boo posted about the Epcot Event (post #464), not the AK event as that information hasn't been posted that I know of.

 

[NicoleLarson]

Can you do more than 1? If we had a reservation for the May HS one, then a July reservation for the AK one, can we do both or do we need to choose?

 

[Bibbidi_Boo]

You can do one per park per year.

 

[KAT4DISNEY]

The limit is one event per park but you can go to all of them - once per round of events.
