Yep the castle lights are not going anywhere. Common to not start installing until Sept. Will be up in all its glory as usual by the first few days of November.
I haven't been able to get a FP for it, either!!

I've seen the crane go up in August in past years, but the castle recently had a lot of work done (I assume related to Happily Ever After), so I assume they just need to quickly plop the lights in place this year.Yep the castle lights are not going anywhere.

Yes it can be up later in August sometimes but they will still have plenty of time having all of Sept/Oct to do them.

Passholder shirts are available. They confirm you have an AP and automatically take 20% off which I thought was cool.

This has the lighter cotton that I prefer. There’s a green one with the heavier cotton jersey.

Capacity is rumored to be around 25,000.
That's it? That will be a wonderful crowd size. Of course, probably still an hour wait for SDMT! Lol
I think it used to be 25K. My guess would be a little higher lately. Since they never announce a number, they can pretty much do whatever they want.
Unfortunately about 20K of them hang out on Main Street most of the night. So it's not like a typical 25K crowd day in the park.

The claim when prices went up is that capacity would go down.
I don't remember seeing that claim at all.

It is still shocking to me that if my family wants to attend this someday it will cost us $400. Once in a lifetime splurge that may never happen.
Apparently though, I’m in the minority.
