There’s also characters available. And according to the blog post about the 2023 party, the festival booths should be open. Plus, you can get in as early as 5, so if you want to see one of the Boyz II Men sets or just have dinner somewhere in Epcot, you’d have plenty of time.
I wouldn't expect the course maps to drop (via the event guide) for another couple weeks at the earliest. They usually aren't released until a couple of weeks before the races (although the DL Halloween event guide dropped about a month out, which was unusual). The shirts are usually not released until the week of the races. But who knows anymore? Haha.
Yes! The marathon will be starting 30 minutes earlier, 4:30am, but I am surprised they decided to throw the map in with the new start time announcement. I really thought the course change would be Animal Kingdom, but it is actually Magic Kingdom! Runners will be running through all lands in the opposite direction of last year most likely due to the construction behind Big Thunder.
I was expecting a different exit as well due to this but when I saw the January full map the other day and saw the tt exit I was pleasantly surprised
I clicked out and back about 3 times than they showed up
Where have they released it? I'm not finding a link on their site.
This was good advice! Thank you - I bit the bullet so that mom doesn’t have to be left out and sent the link to my friend so she could decide if she wanted to go with my niece and join us all.
We have a celebratory dinner res and will plan on enjoying the rides and some snacks! Worst case we get tired and leave early. But this could be a one time thing so might as well have the option to do it all.
