I've just come accept that we're probably only gonna get details on the Epcot show and that anything else is a bonus for me lol.

This is probably a reach, but... I find the timing interesting that Matt Ouimet just quit the Cedar Fair board effective immediately.
Haven't really seen that talked about but would definitely be of interest to the Disneyland fans who remember him and think he could do some real good if he was brought back to run the parks.

It’s also intriguing that they are streaming it this year.

We all know he will if he's able to.@wdwmagic drop the
Seems interesting that the Pyro Test at Epcot isn't till after the weekend....So if there is talk about Epcot's New Show they won't have Footage....
This weekend or not., I would like confirmation that MK is actually looking to improve Entertainment!!!

I don’t think we will hear anything on the parade front unless it’s something that nobody knows about here.
My expectations are low, but hopefully we will be surprised.
Hopefully we will get dates for HatBox, Moana and Figment M&G opening, a name and more details for the new EPCOT show. I think it's too early for anything on the night parade plans. There are a couple of other projects in the works, including one at DHS that might be mentioned.
I believe the EPCOT test is just limited pyro products. They aren't that close to running anything like the full show at this point as far as I know.

I just watched @marni1971's SpectroMagic video, and the new night parade really needs to be a new SpectroMagic. That theme just gives me chills. I'm expecting to be disappointed when it finally comes, but this is my strong strong preference.
I wonder what that could be. Something in the Voyage of the Little Mermaid theater? No chance it's a redevelopment of Star Wars Launch Bay, though I wish they would.

Hey @TP2000 !
I am currently at your favorite ‘third world communist prision’ airport!
Love this recreation of the Logan Tower in the kids play area…..
Almost makes it worth spending some time here waiting for my flight!

These are my predictions, I’m preparing to be wrong.
WDW-Edition:
WDW-Edition:
- Tiana Bayou Adventure details
- Epcot nighttime show name and details
- JoW opening date
- AK new attraction confirmation
- Tiana’s Palace (or Place) confirmation
- Figment M&G intro
- More details about Poly DVC
- New characters at DHS Galaxy Edge coming

That's reasonably tame. Probably will get a good portion of that.
I like all of this. New characters at DHS Galaxy's Edge feels like something forgotten that would be an exciting surprise. The only reason they stayed locked into the "Between 8 and 9" Timeline was the starcruiser, which is dead by 10/1.
Would love to hear details of a DAK expansion, which feels like it's inevitably coming and the next major WDW expansion, but wouldn't be shocked if they tease the land, but don't give any details about what the attractions / other experiences are going to be. Since D23 last year, D23 2024 has always felt like the endgame for all of the extremely necessary and long overdue WDW expansion plans to be announced.
My optimism would come from the fact that WDW has added a major attraction or land every year since 2017 (2016 if you count Frozen Ever After). With Tron this year and Tiana next, I'd have a hard time believing they'd allow 2025 to be dormant while Epic Universe opens.

I think that minus #4 and #5 is doable

They would have to break ground today to have a fleeting hope at having a whole new land ready by 2025. Realistically if announced soon, I would say 2026
I don't disagree at all. Just pointing out that it's odd they've put themselves in a position to have that be the ONE YEAR that breaks the streak. With all the overseas projects coming to an end, curious if they could supercharge development of ONE THING just so they can keep it rolling.

Also worth noting they will have nothing new in 2025 as Tiana’s is the only new project that’s currently on the books and that opens in 2024.
Unless they move very fast, and that would be unlikely if we are using the past construction times as a barometer.
