Is there an AP magnet or anything this year? Gonna be there opening day and only that day.

Nothing said as of yet.

I guess I'll find out Wednesday. Also, side note, is there a thread for daily updates from people on site? I'm willing to contribute for the next 9 days.

The very large coronavirus thread just below this one. The pinned one I have locked is strictly for news updates.

Moonlight Magic at Hollywood Studios looks to be one step closer to cancelation. DVC members with Resort Stays were originally going to be able to get tickets for the event on July 15th, but they're now directed to check back later for more details.

It's not cancelled yet, so there's still a chance, but it looks to me like they're reevaluating the situation.

Oooh - happy to see the list of menus for Food and Wine festival. Still hoping to go this fall! 20 booths is better than 0 booths, and will save quite a bit on my wallet versus 40 booths.

SkierPete is out there on the internet - but not on here anymore. Tale as old as time.

As long as I can reserve my plush 60 days in advance with a resort stay I think that's a bargain!

It's a tiered program. If you want 60 days, you need a deluxe resort reservation (fully paid). Moderate resorts get 45 day rights, Good Neighbor hotels get 30 days, and value resorts get day of entry rights.

And good luck getting the good stuff staying at a value.

You'll be lucky to get Dinoland merch at that point.
