Trying to put together what insiders have already hinted at and being realistic:

StarCruiser launch, StarCruiser launch, StarCruiser …………………

- FoF returns in early 2022
- Updated Fantasmc to open ……. by Easter …… ?
- Something about the Epcot Spine - nothing new, just confirming Moana, Dreamer’s Point and the-structure-formerly-known-as-the-bar-stool-on-legs
- Tron and Guardians opening dates narrowed to a specific quarter of 2022
- Re-opening of Typhoon Lagoon

- Epcot 40th (non-specific)

- A lot of waffle and self congratulation about what has already returned, Genie+ etc and further steps - like maybe M&Gs with hugs

- I think any announcement about the PW site will be saved for next summer, but maybe some vague “we have exciting plans to be unveiled”.

Outside chances:

- Following the DL Toontown announcement, something for the Big Top area in MK
- More specific plans for Dinoland
- Comments on the MP postponement and Spaceship Earth refurb plans

Blog Mickey just posted an article suggesting Paint The Night will return…in WDW.

EDIT: It’s a rumor so grain of salt and all that.

EDIT #2: @doctornick pointed out “And more specifically that it is more likely headed to DHS as opposed to MK”.
DHS’s Parade Storage Facility, as is, could not accommodate PtN. Moreover, DHS’s Parade Route is tiny. It may actually be the smallest in any Disney Park with a Parade Route (I can’t think of a counter example).

Interesting, thanks @Magic Feather. I didn’t know that, to be honest I can’t even recall many instances of seeing a proper parade at DHS. I know their have been but my experience in seeing them has been extremely limited. Definitely have seen motorcades but I wouldn’t say those are full on parades.

I actually was kind of wondering about that. It looks pretty small on the satellite images and obviously PTN has some really large floats. So, if PTN were to go to DHS, sounds like they'd have to cut some floats (I mean, or spend money to expand the storage facility 🤣)

As an aside, Is that Pixar Play Parade (or whatever it was called) still in storage at DHS? Or did they junk it by now.

Not every unit will make the journey, last I’d heard. If this gets announced, I can’t wait. I’ve really been missing a light parade at WDW.

So are we looking at a temporary tent in the parking lot in the style of the cheerleader tents back in the day, or a rebuild of the existing facility (seems unlikely), or perhaps not happening at DHS?

Eeek, PTN was short as it was… but can’t say a axed version for WDW should come as a surprise.
