Preschoolers hours and concerts

[Oceana]

In september they have the added the Little Ones Magical Hour on Sunday Wednesdays and Fridays.

I assume each day is at the Magic Kingdom and is this earlier than the usual extra magic hours guests onsite get in on? If not why is this different?

Also the concerts for the PLayhouse Disney Concerts, how can I get concert times? We are huge Ralph's World fans! Also where will the concerts be?

My 3 year old does better when he kinda has an idea of what we will do durring the day so planning is important to us.

Thanks
julie

I think I can answer some of your questions. The Little Ones Magical Hour is not in addition to the EMH. So, if the park opens at 9, it will open at 8 on Sunday, Wednesday and Friday and only certain rides in Fantasyland. I believe the difference between Little Ones hour and EMH is the choice of rides that are opened. As for the concerts, no news yet. MY TA has not been able to find out anything either. From watching the Disney Channel it looks like the concerts will be held at the Studios. Keep an eye on the boards because there are quite a few threads about this subject. I'm sure as we get closer our fellow Disers will update with the new info. Have a great trip!

The Wiggles are playing at the Epic theater. What is this? Is that the Indiana Jones show stage?

 

[Oceana]

Thanks oodles

They shouldnt list him as Ralph Colvert... I bet the bassest should get counted too!

 

[DisneyPhD]

Does anyone know if the "Little Ones Magical Hour on Sunday Wednesdays and Fridays" is something that should still be there in Jan, or it just for Aug and Sept? We are making ADR's for Jan (3rd to 10th) now and trying to figure out what days we will be where.

Thanks!

I'm pretty sure the little ones emh is just for this special pre-k time in aug and sept.

 

[missmun52]

Its from Aug 13 - Sept 30. Thats the time of the Magical beginnings promotion and the free dining promotion. (free dining came with the magical beginning package also)

Its just something disney did to increase the valume of people staying at the resots during the off season/hurrican season.

subscribing to this thread...this is the first time I have actually found some info on these upcoming concerts. We are going there hopefully to see the Wiggles and we only have one day. Thanks for posting those showtimes. I hope we can find out where the Epic theater is too. I just wonder how they will handle ticket distribution. I imagine it will be crazy.

Thanks all for the info!

Is the Epic theater where they have Fantasmic or the Indiana Jones "Epic" stunt spectactular? I can't remember. Both are big theaters.

I could have sworn that I read someplace that you needed tickets for the shows- and that some radio station in Orlando was giving some away.... ect.. But I have not been able to find out anything about ticketing anyplace else. But if you are going down I think it might be worth a phone call to disney to try to make sure you don't need tickets if this is something you really want to do. Ahhhh the Wiggles would be my little guys pick for sure

 

[las3888]

Here's another link I found...not alot of new info. No mention of special tickets though. Just mentions that you need admission to MGM to get in. Well, at least if the Wiggles are where Fantasmic is, hopefully we will all get in!!!!!

As far as i have heard the concerts are free with admissiom to MGM just as fantasmic is.

 

[Lisa0503]

I don't think there is any extra tickets needed for the concerts. Just admission to MGM!

As per the Epic Theater, I beleive it is the Indiana Jones 'Epic' Stuntspectacular Theater....
