Visually Impaired And Hoop De Hoop

[Joanne33]

Hi we are off to Disney in August with the free DDP, we were thinking of going to the Hoop De Hoop show, but my 6 year old is visually impaired and unless he is near the front he wont be able to see. Is there anyway on the DDP getting a seat near the front at Hoop De Hoop so he is able to see. We are a family of four me hubby and 6 year old twins.

Thanks for your help and advise.

Under the new pricing structure I think you will have to pay for HDDR out of pocket (instead of two DDP credits) and get the Category 1 seating which is closest to the stage (and the most expensive).

Also, the seating is assigned in the order that reservations are made, with the first reservations getting the best seats so you will have to make the reservations as soon as possible. At the time you make the reservation you can have the reservation noted that one person has visual impairments and a table at the very front will be appreciated.

And I have not heard of "free dining" being announced yet.

I am from the uk and we have been offered free dining from mid August to the end of September.

Oh. OK I had not realized that. But anyway my understanding is that HDDR categories two and three seating are the only ones which allow use of the DDP credits; Category one must be paid for.

Here is the latest official information:

Special Note for Disabled Guests: Guests in need of wheelchair accessibility may only be seated in Category 1 for the Hoop Dee Doo Musical Revue. Category 2 and 3 areas of Pioneer Hall are not wheelchair accessible. Guests seated in Category 2 or 3 areas may be required to ascend one flight of stairs.

Seating Descriptions: Bookings arrival 1/1/07 and beyond
Category 1 will allow you and your party to be seated on the first floor level with your table nearest the stage and in the middle of all the action and excitement.

Category 2 offers either a great table on the first floor behind the Category 1 seating below the balcony or in the center of the balcony on the 2nd floor. Either way, you're still facing the stage so you can get a wonderful view of the entire performance.

Category 3 offers tables that are located on the right hand side or left hand side of the balcony on the 2nd floor. You won't miss a moment of the fun and excitement as you enjoy the panoramic view of the entire stage production.

Note: Guests seated in Category 2 or 3 areas may be required to ascend one flight of stairs.
