I personally won't miss it greatly, but it was very well done--and even fun as a surreal walk-through experience. And for such an outrageous and loud event, it didn't intrude into the atmosphere of the rest of the park.

Isn't the timing kind of odd, what with Through the Looking Glass opening soon?
Wait a second....they aren't planning some kind of Zootopia Rave, are they? I'm looking forward to the film, but... yikes...

Was just on my way to post something about this. Truth be told it will not be to big of a loss to the park. It provided it some nighttime entertainment, but the theming of the props really crashed with the rest of the area (Not that the area was much better).
I wonder if this is a cut that was done because of the cutbacks being seen across the parks.

I think it might be related to the return of Food and Wine which starts the next day.

I know I won't miss it. To me, the whole idea of a rave in a Disney theme park was weird and frankly, lame.

I agree. I guess they need the area for the food and wine festival for the month. Maybe they will return after?

It's certainly atrocious to look at during the day, but it's one of those unique offerings you don't find anything remotely close to at any other Disney park.

Or, I mean, was.
It is worth noting that it hasn't been the same for me since they removed the Mad Long Island Iced T Party.

Removing the specialty acts and destroying the drink menu did it for me. I've only been to Mad T once or twice since it came back for those reasons.

Yeah, like a Star Wars or Frozen version!

I don't mind MTP leaving (they eventually all go), but don't replace it with something crappy like Freeze the Night.

What do you mean? Freeze the Night was amazing. People carving ice on the stage while the DJ spins Let it Go and booze for the parents and completely awkward and out of place non-children/non-parents. It was AMAZING!

As someone who works in special events, enjoys partying now and then, and appreciates live music, I have to agree. It's very well executed, and the band is talented, but the crowd is mostly young kids with APs and it just feels awkward, especially when you're an adult standing there with a drink in hand watching go-go dancers gyrating on platforms to pulsating dance music. Also, as others have said, The Mad T Party destroys the aesthetics in that corner of the park during the day.
Speaking of lame dance experiences at DL, who here remembers Anaheim's version of Videopolis back in the 80s?

That was nothing like a rave.
An actual rave in Disneyland could be quite cool. But it would have to be an after hours hard ticket event.

I am bummed this is leaving, I assumed it was going to go, but being that it is currently the "Diamond Mad T Party", I guessed it would last the reminder of the celebration. I am assuming this is part of the x% Disney is looking to cut across the board. It was fun while it lasted.
