This seems like the new draw during the slow season. They have September and October cover with MNSSHP and a good part of November and December with MVMCP. It looks like they found a way to fill in the last slow season gap.

Yes, I recently wrote to them asking it if they would consider having it in June (my nephews would love to attend).

Their answer - a polite No. ;)

I'm so excited and can't wait to see the dates! We'll be there Aug 11 - 19 and hope to go! It sounds like a lot of fun and maybe will make up for a not-so-great time at MVMCP and our last trip in general (due to the group we traveled with).

Oh man! I was devastated that I missed this when I had to cancel my Jan. trip this year. Now I get another chance?

WDW is just not going to make it easy for me to let my AP lapse, are they???:thumbsup:

WONDERFUL!! My DS4 will LOVE this. :cheer: He tells me everyday that he wants to be a pirate! Does anyone know how much tickets cost? I hope the party dates work with our vacation dates in Aug! We are already excited because we found out that the Magical Beginnings shows would start during the week of our vacation! This will just add the pixie dust to our trip!:pixie:

We're headed down August 8-17 and I was really upset b/c of the HM refurb, now we have the P&P Party so I'm smiling againl. I can't wait for the dates to come out.

This is going to be fun. I just switched my ADR'S for LTT from Monday night to Friday night 8-24 at 5:45. The rep said it was one of the last tables. Now I see this. My daughter is going to be 8 and I'm sure she'll love this. Not sure about my 12 year old son but I'm not going to miss it. and June 1st is my duaghters birthday. What a great gift!!!:mickey:

Unfortunately I'm a little disappointed in the timing of this! I know it's great for all you travelling with kids, but I'm not . . . we're doing an adult only trip, and it turns out that one of the PNP dates lands on a day we were counting on using MK EMH!
I hope all of you that are attending have a great time :mickey: . . . I just wish I wasn't losing out on some very important MK time!!!:(

BelleKP is right. Unless my old potential trip notes are wrong, 8-15 was supposed to be 9am to 10pm with EMH. Now they'll kick you out at 7pm unless you cough up another $35. They should have avoided EMH dates. They should give people with existing MYW reservations for those nights free access to the party.

DRAT!! We'll be in Disney in mid September and will miss the PNPP. I don't understand why Disney has to do MNSSHP so early. We don't celebrate Halloween and I would really love to take our DD to PNPP. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they add at least one night while we're visiting!

Is the end of August really that slow of a period? I was surprised to see this party announced, meaning of course shorter regular park hours. Now I might have to look at trip down at the end of August, for the kids of course.:secret:

Wow, they're doing it Sept 3rd? That's Labor Day. I'm just surprised they would do it that day.

So I was contemplating a trip, and notice that Disney has already released park hours for August and September, and I see some of the P&P party dates are scheduled 9:00 closings. So is Disney, in fact, adjusting the operating schedule to allow a second ticket event since the party is a 7:30 to 12:30 event? If this is true, will the closing time be 6:00? :(

OK, going down in August and have Liberty Tree reservation for 7:30 on one of the nights of the event. Will we still be able to eat there without buying the extra tickets? DDs may want to go, but if not, will we have to eat somewher else?

DDs may want to go, but if not, will we have to eat somewher else?This is unique situation with no past precedent. I would contact Walt Disney World Dining and see what they can do.

The standard procedure for Hard Ticket Events is as follows:

Attractions will close to non-Party Guests at 7:00 pm, by 7:30 all non-party Guests are ushered to Main Street, by 7:45 all non-party Guests have been ushered out of the park.
