The Jan/Feb/Mar 2007 Pirate & Princess Party thread!

[JohnsonsRUs]

We got our tickets in the mail Thursday for 2/23. Look for the sparkliest pirate you've ever seen and that will be us with DD9.

Thanks! I have a feeling that it is going to be busy. There will be a lot of cheerleaders arriving in town. There are 3 large cheer competitions in town that weekend.

Yeah, I heard about those cheer competitions. I bet that weekend will be pretty crowded!

Do they have high speed access at the Beach Club Villas?? Hopefully they do so I can post when I get back from the party.

I hope they do too so we can hear your report! I just found some info. here about internet access:

We'll be there on the 26th, just the princesses. Actually we are the Queens in our homes, but for a night we can be princesses again. Silly question, does anybody know if the shops on Main Street will be open that night? This is our first girls only weekend and we are both leaving our kids and husbands home, and are hoping to be able to spend a little time in the shops without family. Oh yeah, my traveling companion also broke her arm at the beginning of the month, after we bought our tickets, so there really aren't a whole lot of rides she can do.

Actually, we came to WDW when my DD14 had a broken arm (full cast) and she was able to ride everything! We just made sure to cover the cast on Splash Mtn. so it wouldn't get wet.

(We also went to Universal and IOA and the only thing they wouldn't let her ride was Dueling Dragons.)

Hope you and your friend have fun - I'm jealous!

Stopped into the Disney store tonight and picked up a POTC Dead Man's Chest t-shirt for $3.99.(clearance is additional 50%off) It is a mens size and has a silouette of Captain Jack on it. The ladies ones were nicer but didn't have my size. I will be wearing it to the P&P party.

The fireworks for this party are great. We are staying at the Contemporary right now and last night they were practicing them. We thought they were as good or better than wishes. They have a lot of really cool firework effects I haven't seen at other times in the show. The music we could hear was really good. We are looking at trying to get back for one of the parties after seeing the fireworks.

Say it ain't so?!?!? I dread facing cheerleaders after reading all about Pop Warner week. Maybe they will be busy doing other stuff, or most didn't spend the extra money for the P&P tickets.
BTW we are going on March 8th too. Keep an eye out for 3 pirates and Belle. I have my lime green mickey head on my backpack!

I don't know for sure, but I bet they will be. When we went to MVMCP in 12/05 they were open and bustling with shoppers!

I hope they have some good P&PP logo and dated stuff to buy!! I can't wait to shop!

I also read several reviews of the fireworks from last night on another site, and people are absolutely RAVING about them!!

From what I've read, most of the cheer competition stuff begins that Saturday, so hopefully that means most of them won't start to arrive until Friday, therefore missing the 8th party. I think you're probably right about them not wanting to spend the extra money for the party too, makes sense to me anyway.

Went to City Hall at MK yesterday, and got the map and schedule for the Pirate & Princess party, so here it is:

Big thanks to picantel for posting this info!!

I coach cheer. There are 3 competitions that weekend only UCA All-Star Nationals is on Disney property. There is a competition at the civic center and somewhere else too. UCA cheerleaders stay at the ASSP and CBR. I heard the other competitons have kids staying at the Nick Hotel. We are bringing 7 squads. I coach Tiny cheer ages 3-5. Most families with kids on my squad already have tickets to P&P party. The UCA cheerleaders compete at MGM, WWOS and possibly another park this year. The cheerleaders will be busy on Saturday and Sunday for the most part. Many will arrive on Thursday as most teams have practice there on Friday.

I hope more rides are going to be open than what is listed on the maps!

Me Too!! Can someone tell me what dates the cheerleaders will be there? Trying to plan which night to go! Thanks

Well, we can't see the Fantasyland or Frontierland attractions, they're cut off. The rest looks pretty much the same as MNSSHP. I'd hope that all of Fantasyland will be open, as well as BTMRR and Splash Mts.
