View Full Version : Have they announced any more of those extra magic hours events lately?

I remember reading back in Jan/Feb of events where they gave out passes for "extra magic hours" or something like that, where you got an extra hour in either DL or DCA if you had the pass. Haven't heard anything about more events lately, but I thought there were supposed to be at least 12 of them throughout the year. I remember that they weren't as popular as Disney had hoped, but I didn't know if they were cancelled, or just being saved for later in the year.

thanks,
Mike

Thanks!

A week before we are there, but oh well, we'll still have plenty of time in the parks. :D

Are these for AP's, or do you have to be given a special pass? Also, how do they make sure that the non-eligible aren't in there?

It's a Dream, you just have to be in the right place at the right time, and they corral the winners in one area while sweeping the park for those who don't have the special pass. It's a HUGE card on a lanyard and you have to be wearing it, so it's quite noticeable!

I was handed the extra hour pass on Monday (4/28) as well as the dream fastpass. Since I was leaving for home an hour later so I gave them back so someone else could use them. Anyone know what I missed out on? Was it just an extra hour to go on attractions or was there more to the celebration?

Pretty much just an extra hour to go on attractions. I'll be working the one tomorrow night at Storybook. Come say hi if you win (or anytime after 3:30 if you don't)!

We won those as we were coming off the Columbia, back at the end of January. We wound up having a family emergency and had to leave the park before we could use them.

Darnit, we really wanted to do it. :mad:
