A sure sign of Hogsmeade soft openings soon!

[Matpez]

When they make the area accessible you know a theme park will have a "soft opening" soon. The construction wall was replaced with this!

I'm going to be in Orlando April 16th weekend.. Anyone think they will have soft-openings by then?

Based on everything going around, yes. But maybe not Forbidden Journey, we just have no way of knowing if it isn't done or has been ready for months.

They have been able to keep one heck of a tight lid on this project

well tight enough lid... We have an idea on some stuff, but not really other stuff. *cannot wait for media day*

Oh yes, good news!

I love how so many Disney sites are paying close attention to potter, even here!

This is THE attraction opening of the year. I cannot wait to see the video/photo reports!

Don't expect much from video / photos from on ride, possibly not much from the queue as well as universal likes to crack down on on-ride photography and video recording. Harry Potter rides will have mandatory locker policy.

You will see millions from hogsmead and the surrounding area though.

This is huge!! I think they need to expand the area a little more though because it needs to be a park, but not a whole park. This is just because the franchise is sooo big. O I forgot they were making a Forbidden Forest to, that's gonna be creepy...

I'm definitely keeping my fingers crossed that this will happen within the next couple months...say, May 1st or 2nd? lol. I try not to think about it, because I don't want to be too disappointed if it's not open when I'm there, but this gives me a shred of hope!

Something big was happening last night:

[Chrononymous]

dang! Now that just gets me all excited again!!!

 

[jonnyc]

Ooooo it is looking very good from the air.

 

[SleepingMonk]

I hope the fine folks at Disney are paying very close attention.

The news today is saying Universal will be making a 'big announcement' regarding WWoHP in the next week or two! Assuming we will finally be given the official opening date!
