Hmm. I wonder what this "special" finale is.
My guess is either perimeter fireworks, or something to do with projections on the castle.

Something similar to http://www.wdwmagic.com/Attractions/Epcot/Gallery/01Oct2007-25th-Anniversary.htm I would guess.

This just makes me even sadder about participating in Wine & Dine...I'll have to make a point of being in a good spot at the Sports Complex to be able to see Wishes.
Why on earth they did Wine & Dine the same day is beyond me. We would have participated if it were on Friday or Sunday night.
There's also an official Mom's Panel meet at the Yacht Club on the 1st. It's like one hand doesn't know what the other is doing sometimes...
Thanks for the heads up, Steve!

I agree - it appears they like to hold it on the first weekend of Food & Wine, but c'mon guys! At least next year for Epcot's 30th, the 1st is on Sunday. I was secretly selfishly hoping there either wouldn't be a special show or it would have a "preview" performance on the 30th. Ah, well - such is life.

Actually, October 1st is on a Monday just as it was on the 25th anniversary of the park.

So it is! I completely forgot about it being a leap year. Well, that works too.
Can't wait!

I am so excited that Disney pulled out all the stops for this momentous event! (Insert sarcasm here) I mean why have additional attractions or anything supers special when we can have cupcakes and and extended fireworks show.
The way I see it is, just because Meg Crofton and other TDO executives never get invited to birthday parties doesn't mean that they shouldn't give Walt's dream its due rewards...
I am officially off my soapbox.

You realize they just announced a $500 mil expansion yesterday right?

That was what I was going to say. We got the big announcement everyone has been waiting for, so the fact that the celebrations are going to be a bit limited doesn't surprise or bother me.

Doom and Gloomers are programmed to find fault with every new announcement. They can't help it. Blame the software.

And to think I almost booked a trip just for this day. Cupcakes huh and an extended wishes.
For those referencing the special ending to wishes being similar to Illuminations 25th, its just extra fireworks with extra power, was not that spectatular if it will be the same type of special ending that Illuminations 25 was.
If you are let down by these details and booked a trip for this, I feel your sorrow
