so what kind of crowds should we expect for our "sold out" night?
The 2 moms, 5yo & 7yo are excited for the trick or treating and stuff, but the 3 teens and 2 dads (myself included) are more interested in the access to attractions.

This has certainly been one of the strangest ticketed events at WDW that we've seen.

I continue to be perplexed by the fact that the first and last parties sold out and remained sold out. It could be a good thing, a bad thing, or completely irrelevant. We're going to the first one, so I have a vested interest.

I'm wondering why my date still hasn't sold out! Maybe it has the most capacity! 😂

Speculation I've read is that Halloween sold out because it had larger capacity to begin with due to anticipated higher demand, and that capacity for the first date was kept low so all the bloggers would give it a great review and unwittingly help Disney sell out the rest of the dates on false pretenses.

I believe you read that, but I don't believe that to be true.

I think both parties sold out because both would have the most demand - the first for vloggers, etc. and the second because it' Halloween.

We know they increased capacity later for other parties, but not those. Is it your feeling that both of them started out with higher capacity than the other BBs to begin with?

I guess? I just don't think Disney purposely kept capacity low for vloggers so they would report that it was awesome and other people would buy tickets for the other parties. :D

The only party that has never opened back up for sales after sellout is the first party. None of the other early parties were sold out so people just assume they had space added after other October parties got more slots. Halloween sold out 2 or 3 times on the first day and reopened before finally closing it off. Was reported to be a glitch, so I don't think we even know they didn't add capacity to Halloween on that day.

Now we know that a bunch of dates in Oct sold out and later on more capacity was added, but IIRC August and Sept was still open at the time other than 8/10. No way of knowing if they just added to October assuming higher demand and day attendance with the 50th celebration.

There were 2 dates in September (21st and 24th) that had tickets added when October did.

Ok, thanks for the clarification.

And just for the record, I'm not saying they didn't add tickets to nearly all of them. I am just saying we can't assume they did given the current information. They should be adding an 8/13 party if 8/10 sold out and they're actually seeing heavy demand in the early parties. There is a decent chance the first couple weeks are low based on current demand and wanting to work out the kinks with a program they haven't run in 18 months.
