You might not know this but for those who did camp out or got there at 4am, where did everyone line up? At the TTC by the monorail and fairy boat? For those staying at the resorts that took busses to the MK, I’m assuming they got to line up in front of MK? Unless busses did not start operation until closer to MK opening?
As far as I know we were all held at the train station. 4am or 7am arrivals.
(that parade shoot was one hell of a preplanned effort!)

I’ll be there, besides the fireworks and any other special entertainment getting some merch is the only thing on my to do list. Rides will purely be a bonus.

Wow brings back memories Lol. Did you have a group of people who went in different directions?
I wonder if we’ll be having a similar experience this October.

Tell me about it.
I'm 5 minutes in and I'm already nostalgic for the welcome show, no fastpass and the Mayor (RIP).

Awesome Video! Gives us a idea what to expect even though many things have happened and changed over the past 10 years.
I think it should be a good time regardless! Just gotta pack the patience, stay calm and most of all just enjoy being there on 10/1!

I got pre notification of the format so had a camera at the top of Main Street, a camera at the bottom of main street, two cameras in the press paddock and another two cameras in the hub. The Main Street cameras then followed the end of the parade into the hub (I ran through Emporium and Caseys to beat the crowd). Fun times.

Now I'm curious on how they're going to pull that off this year.

Do they typically decorate the castle with holiday decorations? If yes, will they still do that with the 50th decorations already on it? Might be a little much LOL

Might be better to compare 10/1 this year to the 25th Anniversary rather than the 40th. A lot more media, celebrities, etc should be involved. Pandemic depending.
Who all was there on 10/1 for the 25th that can tell us how it was handled? Was there even a ceremony for all guests or was MSUSA and the hub blocked off to guests?
