Has anyone seen this?!?

Course, I made 10th wedding anniversary PSs for California Grill on a night there is no Wishes. Go figure! :rolleyes:

Wonder what is up? Anyone heard?
 
Give the schedule a chance - this always happens - it is never 100% correct when first posted....
 
We went last February and Wishes was held every night before the park closed. Parades are not held every night= Spectro was only on two nights of the 5 we were there.
 
Yeah, I was hoping to use our "preferred viewing" reservations to see Wishes on my birthday (02/17), but according to the schedule, there's no Wishes that night. I'll keep an eye on it, may switch some things around and go on Valentine's Day instead if there's no change.
 

Where did you find the Wishes schedule for Feb.? I can't see to find it on disneyworld.com - just the park hours.
 
If you're looking at the calendar for each park, you can click on the date that you're interested in. It'll give you parade and fireworks hours.
 
I wouldn't worry about it....it was probably a mistake. Spectro is not nightly but if you read the Disney site itself it bills Wishes as "a nightly fireworks spectacular". I have a feeling you'll see it changed shortly.

I don't think this is a mistake. Wishes is not scheduled on Wednesdays in February, which is the rumored evening Extra Magic Hours night for the Magic Kingdom.
 
It seemed to be a trend that Wishes was not on Wednesday's in Feb (except Pres. Week). However the first day we are there the 17th (thurs) there is only spectro listed?? Go figure!?!
 
I agree with johnvree's comment pointing out that the prior fireworks show (FITS) was not shown every night. I believe they made Wishes nightly for its first year, which has now ended, and I'm not surpised to see it going back to just a couple of nights each week sometime after the holidays.

I've looked at the Feb schedule for our March trip planning, and it looks like we'll be going to MK on 2 separate nights in order to see Spectromagic and Wishes. This really works out OK as far as I'm concerned, but then we go for longer trips (at least 9 days). I think this could be more of an issue for shorter trips.

Not to be a know-it-all, but we go every year the 1st or 2nd week in March and Feb hours tend not to be a reliable guide to March hours, especially late March when hours tend to get much longer. Last year's March hours might be a better guide, except for the EMH issue. We'll be there late Feb / March this year and I, too, am waiting with baited breath for those March hours!
 
The only time there were fireworks and a parade every night was for the 25th anniversary celebration.
 
You know, I think I misread the entertainment calendar the first time I read it. I assumed that Spectro would be followed by Wishes, but it isn't listed. I'll still hope that it's a mistake, but I tend to avoid Spectromagic anyway.
