When is opening for new norway?

[Jennygt]

I know this has been asked a million times but here I am. What is the target date? Just spring 2016? Thanks

Nothing more concrete. Some rumors (NOT confirmed) say maybe early to mid-May.

We will be there early May, I almost hope it is not open so I don't have to deal with adding it in, lol. My kids don't know about it anyway so I might just keep it that way, play it by ear.

After seeing the "lack of" completion level this last week, May is a push. I can't imagine it will be before that
But clearly they are not far enough along for there to be any announcements on opening as of yet.

I have read lately that the date is expected to be late May. I don't recall the exact date.

Probably because there is no exact date announced thus far.
People expect it will be open in May because Disney said Spring 16 but until the date is officially announced by Disney anything you read is only rumor

Love it being called "new norway"

As with all things Disney - until it is 3D, complete and open for business - nothing is a fact. Doubtful Disney will announce a date until very close.

But at a managers meeting a few weeks ago it was discussed and at that time it was stated: Meet & Greet and Ride will open together, Projected opening date was May 21 and at that time A&E will leave MK allowing Aurora & Snow White to return to FTH.

Ok thats interesting, I really need to get to AandE so I am almost glad they will not be moving during our early spring trip, if we happen upon a soft open then great.

New Norway is sorta funny

It's not so much "New Norway" as it is "Disnorway".

 

[toontoy]

lets just call it what it really is, its the Arendelle visitor center

New-way....or perhaps more appropriately NOTWAY.

 

[Angel Ariel]

Kenny the pirate has a May 1 opening date for both the ride and the m&g listed on his refurbishments page.

New-way....or perhaps more appropriately NOTWAY.

And it all started when they changed Akershus.


(Though I do look forward to what they did with Anna-and-Elsastrom.)

 

[tcherjen]

I was hoping for March.... Darn....

I'm not holding my breath. When we went in May 2014, SDMT was planned to be opened "spring 2014". We got to see CMs riding, but no guests. As we're going the same time period (mid-May) I'm really not expecting Norway's "spring 2016" attraction to be actually open. But I don't care, I'll be in WDW

 

[ajwolfe]

Our first day there is May 22nd..I'm almost hoping it doesn't open until we leave. Just feel like it might create some chaos in Epcot.

Why on earth don't they keep Anna & Elsa in both parks? With the still really long wait times, it would make sense.

Waits are winding down/stabilizing for the sisters. They are rarely a significant amount more than Rapunzel and Cinderella. (just checked MDE currently and the sisters are less, 110 min to 95 min)
Personally I'm glad they plan to bring Aurora and Snow back to Fairy Tale Hall
Matter of fact, check out this pic I took on the morning of 12/20
Line I'm in, on the left, for Rapunzel and Cinderella
Line on the right, for Anna and Elsa

True. I just meant you can meet Cinderella at multiple places, same with almost all the princesses except Rapunzel, Tiana, Anna and Elsa. They need more greets with the newer ones!
