Is it a problem that we are in 2005 and these dates seem to be for 2004?

They look like 2005 dates. MVMCP is usually Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and these dates follow that pattern.

2005 SCHEDULE

November 27, 29

December 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 9, 11, 13, 15, 16, 18, 20

 

[G00fyDad]

No. Because October 17th is Monday. Not Sunday.

 

[DebbieB]

MNSSHP's don't follow the same pattern. Last year they were not all the same days of the week.

Last year's dates:

October 2004 Dates:

October 1, 3, 8, 12, 14, 17, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 29 and 31, 2004

No. Because October 17th is Monday. Not Sunday.

Sun. 3, 17, 24, 31
Tues. 12, 26
Wed. 20
Thurs. 14, 28

I was scared for a bit there. I thought the dates were selling out fast. Glad they havent released them for this year yet.

The dates for the Flower and Garden Festival weekend activities are incorrect. The Festival begins on Friday, which is April 15th, not 16th.

Thanks Nancy. That will get taken care of. That was one of the few that had been known earlier.

We do keep some 2004 dates there for reference and so that you can review the activities scheduled that year. Until the 2005 details are known, at least you can get an idea of what to expect.

 

[G00fyDad]

The pattern isnt what I meant.

#1. There is 2004 all over the page. Not 2005.
#2. October 17th, 2005 is Monday. That list has it as Sunday.
#3. Disney hasn't shown the dates on their site yet. It still says to be announced.

I agree we can use it as a rough guideline but with all that Disney is doing this year I wouldn't set it to stone just yet.

Nancy, at first I was going because we had 4/15 as the date that the Flower and Garden festival begins. Then I spotted what you saw, but there was a disclaimer that it was the information from last year. It was made more prominent.

GoofyDad, we also made it clearer where the 2004 schedule of events are there for a point of reference. I hope that this helps. Most of the time, the events are similar so visitors who never experienced them can get a fair idea of what to expect. While the dates are out, not too many details are known.

FYI, these dates were released by Disney. I don't know when they'll update the site, but that is the source.

I can't wait to tell my DS12 that the Star Wars events are ending the weekend we arrive. Has anyone ever been to this event? Since we are arriving that Friday night should we do MGM Sat or Sun? Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. This is our first trip EVER to the "World" and to have it hit the same weekend as Star Wars......BONUS

We happened upon the Star Wars weekend last year, went on Saturday of final weekend and had a pretty good time. My friend that went with us is a big SW fan and she split off from us and spent most of the day doing the shows and events, she had a great time. One of my favorite pictures is of 'Darth Maul' snarling at my DD.

My DS13 loved this last year and we will arrive on the 10th for it again. He is very excited. We are planning on going on Sat in case he wants to do more on Sunday. The special parade they did last year at 11:00 was neat. There are characters all over the park and he really liked the Stormtroopers on top of the entrances to MGM and the music playing.

If you are going to have a sit down meal be sure to do a ps. Sci Fi had no walk-ins that day when we were there on Sunday last year.

Darth Maul did the same to my DD. It is a great pictures.

This is great news. We will be at WDW on May 17-22. We are going to the midnight showing of Star Wars at the AMC Pleasure Island and will be at MGM on Friday morning and Saturday night for the first Star Wars weekend. My daughter wanted so badly to go to Star Wars weekend that coincided with the opening of Episode 3. (We had been to one previously.) Since she has grown she has become an Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christiansen) fan. 4 months to go and we can hardly wait. :jumping4:

I know the tickets aren't on sale yet, but how do you purchase them in advance? Do they mail the tickets to you or do you have to pick them up when you arrive? Sorry for the questions, but I'm excited because, based on last year's dates, I thought we would miss the party. We will arrive on the 18th, so we can either go that day or the 20th!

 

[Regina]

The tickets are mailed to you when you pre-order. I would imagine that you can also do a "will call". I've never done this for event tickets but I have for park tickets. I was given an order number, brought that to a Guest Services location at a park and got the tickets.

 

[CarolinaBlue]

Thanks, Regina!

You're positive WebmasterRegina? Because I haven't been able to confirm this with Disney. I was told dates have not been released and not to expect them for months.

Oh, it's the MNSSHP dates I was interested in! TIA
