I remember the good old days when we could have current projects AND upcoming projects.

So, it's 2025 now. I created this thread back in May '24, but...

Is it just me or does the 70th not seem to have much buzz and excitement going for it yet? They aren't really doing anything new, and nothing is opening or even being built currently, so...

I get the sense this won't be anything as good or as grand as the 60th was in 2015.

I don't know if it'll be as "grand", the 75th is likely to be the "grand" celebration you're expecting. So far they have slow rolled out the 70th information, I expect more stuff to be announced end of January/beginning of February.

Also the Walt AA show is the "new" attraction opening for the 70th. The 60th didn't have a new attraction opening, it had new entertainment like PtN, which is coming back for the 70th.

In fairness, it's not even the end of the Holiday season yet and they are very clearly saving their fire for the 75th.

I don't think anyone was ever expecting the 70th to match to 60th.

Frankly, bringing back Wondrous Journeys (genuinely the best fireworks show they've done in AGES), Paint the Night, and a new WOC show, AND a new attraction, is a situation I'm pretty happy with. The ONLY thing I'm not happy about is that Magic Happens isn't running at all this year.

I think they think it’s kind of an obligatory celebration. Everyone in charge of any creative decisions is hoping to have the same job or better in 5 years. If they have any “fantastic” ideas for making a real impact, then they might easily just save those ideas for the 75th.
