Whos all going in September 2004??

I just went searching for this thread - I can't believe how short it is compared to all the other "Who's going when" threads.

That is soooooo awesome! I guess it really is a slow time!
 
I have been the last 3 Septs and it is slower then alot of other times. I enjoy my Sept trips more then most of times becasue you can do so much with very little rushing around.
I'm going to try for an Illumnations cruise for Sept. I'm going to try to get one any where between Sept 18 (Sat) and Sept 25 (Sat)...I will have room to share if I can get one.

Have a good day.

Lori
 
Count me in!

I'm coming with my friend Jenny from Sept 4-11th.

DH and my brother might also come along, but they are spending all their time fishing and not at the parks.

I can't wait! :Pinkbounc
 

Hi. We will be going September 9th, 10th and 11th for Night Of Joy-

Night of Joy to Showcase 24 Acts Over Three Nights As Disney Plans Its Biggest Christian Music Event Yet

Thursday March 11, 11:22 am ET
Star-Filled Lineup Has Won 165 Dove Awards and 21 Grammy Awards


LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla., March 11 /PRNewswire/ -- Walt Disney World Resort has unveiled plans for an unprecedented Night of Joy in September 2004 that will showcase the biggest, most-decorated lineup of contemporary Christian music talent in the event's 22-year history.

The marquee includes 24 acts spread across three consecutive evenings

Sept. 9-11 -- including a first-ever Thursday evening Night of Joy. The
expansion to a third night follows early sellouts in recent years.
"The demand for wholesome family entertainment like that provided by Night of Joy increases every year," said Walt Disney World President Al Weiss. "So we are expanding our offerings -- and we hope our guests will enjoy the result."

The result is 24 acts that have amassed 165 Gospel Music Association Dove Awards and 21 Grammy Awards. The star-studded lineup features three-time and reigning artist-of-the-year Michael W. Smith, six-time artist-of-the-year Steven Curtis Chapman, two-time female vocalist-of-the-year winners CeCe Winans and Jaci Velasquez, king of contemporary gospel Kirk Franklin, three- time and reigning group-of-the-year Third Day, three-time group-of-the-year 4Him, and two-time group-of-the-year winners Jars of Clay and Point of Grace.

But that's not the half of this year's Night of Joy lineup. They are joined by Avalon, Rebecca St. James, Salvador, FFH, Mark Schultz, Skillet, Jeremy Camp, Joy Williams, Stryper, 12 Stones, SONICFLOOd, downhere, Across the Sky, Jump 5 and Warren Barfield.

Here's how they will line up in the Magic Kingdom at Night of Joy:

Thursday, Sept. 9 Friday, Sept. 10 Saturday, Sept. 11
Michael W. Smith Steven Curtis Chapman Kirk Franklin
Avalon Third Day Jaci Velasquez
Jars of Clay Rebecca St. James CeCe Winans
Point of Grace Skillet 12 Stones
4HIM Stryper Salvador
FFH SONICFLOOd Jeremy Camp
Mark Schultz downhere Joy Williams
Across the Sky Warren Barfield Jump 5


Performances will take place at several stage locations between 7:30 p.m. and 12:30 a.m. each evening (following regular Magic Kingdom closing). Popular attractions will also be available for guests to enjoy during Night of Joy hours.

One-, two-, and three-night tickets will be available beginning April 21 by calling 407/W DISNEY or by visiting www.disneyworld.com/nightofjoy on the Internet. Advance tickets are $36.95 (plus tax) for one night, $59.95 (plus tax) for two nights and $79.95 (plus tax) for three nights. Tickets will also be available at Florida locations of Family Christian Stores. One-day tickets on event days -- if available -- are $41.95. The event has been sold out in advance in recent years.

In addition, a special Disney's Dream Maker package will also be available starting April 21. The package combines admission to all three evenings of Night of Joy, hotel accommodations, and Ultimate Park Hopper ticket for admission to all four Walt Disney World theme parks, Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon water parks, and more. Information and reservations will be available by calling 407/W-DISNEY.

Seventeen of the 24 Night of Joy acts are nominated for a total of 41 Doves in 2004 -- including nearly half of the nominations for the prestigious vocalist-, group-, and artist-of-the-year honors. The 35th annual Dove Awards will be presented on April 28 in Nashville.

Michael W. Smith is nominated for artist-of-the-year. Third Day and Jars of Clay are up for group-of-the-year, while Steven Curtis Chapman, Mark Schultz and Jeremy Camp are among the five nominees for male vocalist-of-the- year. Night of Joy songbirds CeCe Winans, Rebecca St. James and Joy Williams are vying for female vocalist-of-the-year.

Jeremy Camp and Across the Sky are new-artist-of-the-year nominees.

Jeremy Camp and Across the Sky are also new to Night of Joy -- as are Mark Schultz, FFH, Skillet, SONICFLOOd, Warren Barfield and 12 Stones. On the other side, Michael W. Smith is making his ninth appearance (equaling Petra for most Night of Joy appearances).

A total of 96 different acts have been showcased at Night of Joy since the event's inception in 1983. A hallmark of the event has been the musical diversity, and 2004 is no exception with Rock, Pop, Alternative, Gospel, Urban and Latin styles showcased. A combined audience of nearly 800,000 people has enjoyed the musical variety over the years.

We're heading down the last week of Sept (26th thru Oct 1st). Staying in a 2 bed at VWL that we rented from a DVC'er. Can't wait! Thanks to the boards & other great sites I have the whole trip planned! Now trying to endure the painfully long wait by buying fun stuff for the trip & putting it in a WDW box we made (from a case of diapers) to hold goodies for the trip. Buying stuff early and spreading it out over the next few months is a money saver. Now that the trip is planned I am having fun finding stuff to buy for the box! See my "help fill the box" subject on the families board! The look on DD4's face when she sees the castle is worth every penny of this trip!!!
