Dates for Food & Wine and MNSSHP??

[carolina_yankee]

Anyone know when Disney officially releases dates for these events? We want to go down 9/23 - 10/2, which should give us a week of Food & Wine and a couple of opportunities for MNSSHP if past history can be a good predictor of future behavior. However, with the economy and Disney's whims. . .

Anyone know? Thanks!

As you noted, the official dates are not released yet, usually around June, but based on past years, Food and Wine runs from the last week in September to the second weekend in November. Event reservations open the end of August.

MNSSHP was expanded last year to include all of September as well as October. September was Tuesdays and Fridays, adding Thursdays and Sundays in October.

Hope that helps

Assuming they stick to the pattern, that will work very well. I suspect they won't shorten the dates of either event since they draw the crowds in.

Agreed! I think both have done well to the bottom line, so will stay as they are.

I would guess you would have choices of 9-25 and 9-27 for NSSHP

Announcement of dates and ticket sales usually start in May.

That gives me enough time to adjust the reservation before I'm likely to buy airfare in case the dates get all wonky this year.
