will there be Pirate and Princess Parties in 2009? I have booked my first trip to WDW during the last 10 days of April and was really looking forward to attending one of these events with my family.

Dear Angela,
Thank you for contacting the Walt Disney World Resort.
While we appreciate your interest in Disney's Pirate's and Princess Party, at this time no dates have been established for this event.
There are many other pirate and princess-related opportunities, many of which are included in our basic theme park admission. Please take the opportunity to visit the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction and Captain Jack Sparrow?s Pirate Tutorial, Disney princess meet and greets and new Disney Fairies at Mickey's Toontown® Fair in the Magic Kingdom® Park.
Our Guests may also enjoy princess character dining experiences, the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutiques, and Perfectly Princess Parties at the new
Goofy?s Party Central.
We regularly evaluate all aspects of our business and make adjustments according to demand, so please check for the latest Park events and information online at disneyworld.com as the dates of your visit approach.
If you have questions or need further assistance, feel free to contact us.
Please include your full name, E-Mail address, and reservation number if applicable on all correspondence.
Thank you!
Sincerely,
Kristal Betts
