**Official Frozen Sing-Along, Oaken's, Holiday Premium Package Tips, updated 1/5/15

Didn't do the package--- picked up our tix in advance and they let you in 40 mins prior to the show--- we ended up 1st on line, and were 6th row center! Great seats!!!

Thanks for the 40 minute window info. Very helpful for planning purposes.

Same here! 7/18 as well All the earlier reports said they had PLENTY of stock to last for all the weeks, so there's no way they are actually OUT, right?? My mom really had her heart set on an Olaf MB

If the marketing managers have any brains (and I imagine they do) they know precisely how much stock they will be able to deliver to retail over the course of the summer. If demand will outstrip supply my guess is they will do "controlled run-outs" on these products from day to day and week to week, delivering more stock the next day to shelves. They realize it would be bad press to sell out of a product completely in the first 4 weeks of an 8 week event. Delivering stock in a steady trickle will allow folks in August to still have a shot at the good stuff and will avoid them getting lambasted for "screwing up" the merchandising end of Frozen Summer.

Some people are collecting them, just to collect them, not necessarily to use. And if parents bought a complete set for their kids, that's still less than the cost of an Elsa dress.

I hope the reports are correct and they will still be in stock later this month when you visit!

Thanks, me too!!!!!

Good point. Hopefully that's the case! This didn't even last 4 of the 8 weeks, it lasted 2 days! Haha!

What I hate is seeing people sell the bands on Ebay. They can't even be used to get into the parks!!! Come on people, leave them for the people that are coming to the event and buying them for themselves. Other people shouldn't be making money off them. But that being said, as long as people are willing to by them, they will go for high prices on Ebay.

Not sure you can just purchase them to collect--- obviously, you don't have to use them, but they do have to be linked to a current magic band when you purchase one.

Just stayed for the fireworks--- loved !!! They really did a great job!!!

Glad to see our favorite "Idol" preshow host (Cam) get a part in the production!!! We had a great view, (not that close to the hat), towards the left side of the stage--- our kids loved it!!!

They are linking them to either ticket media or to the other MagicBands in their collection. A DISer has a thread for MB collectors.

We were rushing to get to our bus stop, but did notice brighter lights near "ToT--

Good Night Kiss? Hmmm....Lights near the ToT...hmmmm. Do share!!

Who the heck will be bringing their own ice skates?????
What are chances locals even have any????
What are the chances those flying will give up suitcase space and weight for them?????


Who will be wiling to schlepp them all day at DHS ????

Good night kiss?! Between?! Anna and Kristoff?! NEED VIDEO. XD

 

[lovethattink]

I saw those bright lights too. But that's not it. As we walked on to Hollywood blvf and headed out, it was snowing.

 

[lovethattink]

We watched a skating session. A young girl had her own skates. So yes, people are bringing their own skates too.

My daughter, 18, and I are thinking of doing the premium package on this, but afraid we will feel out of place since we don't have a little one with us. Is this geared more for the younger crowd or will fit in ok?

 

[BudgieMama]

We're doing it with just two adults- with alcohol included, I'd say they'll be an adult crowd too!
