ok, its been a long time, but I recently went out and talked to my sources, and got some info to tell....
Goofey's Country Dancing Jamboree.
This is the name of the show that will be replacing the old version the run in the Diamond Horseshow Saloon. It will be OPENING JULY 1st. Soft openings on June 26th, 27th, 30th. There will be Cast Previews on these days as well. The show times for the Summer season will be 11,12,1,2,4,5 and 6pm. It is still unconfirmed, but I have heard that there will no longer be Ice Cream served.
NEW MK FIREWORKS
Wishes is a go, set to start on eather the first or second week of October. Look for a press event for Philharmagic/Wishes/M:S around this time.
Castle Stage rehab
Second and Third weeks of september.
BTMRR rehab
There has been lots of talk lately on this site about it, here is what I know.... Disney still has not confirmed this, but that is just a matter of time, but look for a 3 month rehab, closing the end of the third week of AUG, opening the week of thanksgiving. MNSSHP and NoJ will be without BTM this year. Look for PotC to replace it for ERIDE nights.
BASIN coming to MK???
thats what I here, as a satilite store to there DD location will be opening at the Frontierland Trading Post
Aunt Poly's and El Prita (june 22) are now reopened to Aug 31st.
MAGIC KINGDOM AND ANIMAL KINGDOM extends park hours
The first 2 weeks of July park closings at both parks have been extended and at MK, From june 22 to july 12, FitS FW and Spectro will happen everynight, instead of just 3 days a week like originaly scheduled. One Mondays, look for 2 spectro's. Compared to last year, when every night of the summer had 9pm spectro, 10pm FitS FW, 10pm closings, this year looks like we will have a few nights a week open to 11pm and a double spectro on mondays. Not back to the pre 2000 12 and 1 pm closings yet, but better then last year.
DAK will be open to 6pm, not 5, BTW
Epcots FW is still closing at 6, but Inoventions hours have been extened to 7pm.
Speaking of Epcot, the new pre show at HISTA is IMHO, STUPID and I am not a critical person of Disney, BUT on this occasion, they missed up this pavilion again. The new pre show is shown on Flat sceen TVs hanging from the ceiling (that is an improvement) but the show itself is nothing more then a commercal for Kodak. Not that the old show was that great, but I miss it already.
MGM stunt show
Its still a go, the route will be changed, they just ran into some problems with the new route, as it will go by some areas that really have nothing to see, and they need to dress it up first, and solve some backstage traffic issues first. They will be running 2 differnet routes, one from now till mid july, then another one starting right after, wish I had more info but for now thats all I know. The project is still a go.
Alien VS Stitch.....
Again, another project that is still a go, from what I here, it will close for good after the new year, and reopen ???
well thats all I got this week.....enjoy
