I have been anticipating this announcement for weeks!

Wow, Sorcerer package ticket prices are up 50%, from $1000 last year to $1500. And it seems like you get less -- unless I'm remembering wrong, last year it was reserved seating in all presentations; this year only those in the Arena or Stage 23.

Does anyone know when they announce the Legends inductees?

I think last time it was only a couple months out. Also..since they are increasing capacity in Stage 23, maybe they are doing away with Stage 28..anyway..will still go for it. Ramen tastes good

Cool. While I'm never really able to make it to these its always cool to read the reports afterwards

I bought a sorcerer ticket in 2011-no way I will buy one this time. Up 50%, less benefits and they don't say how many they will sell. I don't even know if I will go at all this time. Well, lots of time to decide.

I was thinking about getting the Sorcerer's package for next year, since it was so stressful getting a seat last year...never mind!

DF and I did the Premier Package last year for $500.00 each and felt it was a good value. We had discussed buying the Sorcerer Package for 2013 when it we thought the price would be $1,000.00. But, with the 50% price increase, and less for the money, it is definitely out. Since we are coming from the East Coast, there has to be money for the airfare, the hotel, the food, and of course the souvenirs. The extra $500.00 means that we would have to give up something.

We are very sad that Disney increased the price of the Sorcerer package and removed any other package options. We have attended every D23 Expo since the first one, but now we are considering not going at all. The idea of standing in line for 2-3 hours, and then possibly not getting into the venue (which happened to hundreds of people in 2011), is something we have to seriously consider if we don't do the only option of the Sorcerer package.

It is a conundrum. Go without the Sorcerer package, and be really upset at not getting into panels/events, or not go and be upset at not going.
