Does anyone have any information on Bats Day? I know it is Aug 28th but are there any activities going on? Now before you all jump on this and say you are staying away from the park that day.....LOL. My daughter is wanting to go so I was wondering if there was anything geared towards kids? Can she wear a costume? thanks for any information:-)

this year will be my very first Bat's Day in the Fun Park, but i think it'll be loads of fun.... as to being geared towards kids... my 11 year old sister won't be going, because i think it's really gonna be a bunch of teens and early 20 year olds all gothed out, black clothes, make-up, if you can think it up, they'll do it, the weirder the better! but remember it should be all black!

now as for events.... from what i've heard based on previous years, they usually have all the goths go to one performance of Snow White, where they boo everyone but the Evil Queen, i hear the park will put out quite a few villains that day, and they arrange a special line for Haunted Mansion rides (i guess they do two lines, one regular people, one goth kids, and they switch, it's just so one group will be all goth, then not i guess) and i guess they arrange for a big group photo will all the goths in front of the castle at a certain time

so if your daughter wants to go and people watch, and see all the weirdos, i say go for it lol... but if you get tired of us all, there is another, very non-goth event going on that day, featuring Tinker Bell and the new world of fairy friends Disney has created for her! http://www.register123.com/event/profile/web/index.cfm?PKwebID=0x255752e48

And if you plan on making a weekend of it, there's the Nightmare Before Bats Day on Saturday, as well as the Bat's Day Black Market - which is a good place to pick up some goth themed merchandise. All the details here (http://www.batsday.net/home/home.htm)

I was just catching up on some of these post. My daughter wants to go dressed up as a dead tinkerbell do you think disney would have a issue with that? That is what she was for halloween. I don't think goths are wierdos at all they are just normal people like you and me that have a differant way to express themselves. Sounds like it is going to be a fun day I have about 6 people going with us so far so it should be a blast :fez:
I myself am into the color pink so I am not going to fit in but as long as everyone is having fun that is all that matters!

The folks who go to batsday are of all ages. Certainly not just teens and early twenties. Last year a group went to Snow White and they did cheer for the queen but they didn't boo everyone else. In fact on the batsday group site you'll find many posts reminding everyone to be family friendly.

Why is Bats Day in August?! There is just something so cruel about wearing all black in the hottest month!

For all of you going, take lots of photos and be sure to share them with the rest of us! :D

Bats Day has traditionally been on the first day of Summer that So Cal APs can get into the park. This means Goth APs can go, plus the park is still usually operating on full Summer Hours, so out of town goths and their families get in a full day of Disney.

I think having it in August at all is a bad idea. I went to Star Wars Day at Disneyland and I really thought they should have had it in the winter or fall. Oh well!
