Thanks for the info Jason

I for one would refuse the stay at Disneyland Dreams Suite out of principle since it caused the closing of one of my favorite areas in Dinseyland, the Disney Gallery

[DisneyDudet]

Well, I guess this confirms a High School Musical 3...

All I know is.. they need to change the name!

Celebration of a Million Years!

[Caroleh]

Thanks, Jason!!!!

So that's why they closed the Disney Gallery? Sorry, I liked the Gallery and all, but I would TOTALLY stay in the Disneyland Dreams Suite if I won the chance. Beats the heck out of the "Mickey Mouse Penthouse" suite option...

Oh I would stay there too but it's nice to fool yourself into standing up for your pinciples 3000miles away with no trip planned to DLR in the near future

Just got back from a Disney gala, and here's what they announced for more 2008 prizes for Year of a Million Dreams:
* hot air balloon rides over the parks, with WDW balloon being modeled after Epcot ball and DL balloon after Mickey
* 25 character breakfast on Main Street every morning in front of castle

They also mentioned big announcement will be made October1 on Good Morning America!

Here is the media photo and tidbit;

UP, UP AND AWAY!: One lucky Year of a Million Dreams recipient will board the famous Spaceship Earth-inspired hot air balloon at Epcot and go up, up and away, high above the Walt Disney World theme park. Also included in the flight of fancy is a complete “dream” vacation at Walt Disney World Resort. Pictured: a photo illustration of the Spaceship Earth hot air balloon rising above the famous Spaceship Earth attraction at Epcot.

BREAKFAST WITH CHARACTER: One Year of a Million Dreams recipient will be the guest of honor at the largest Disney character breakfast ever held at the Magic Kingdom. The “Ultimate Disney Character Breakfast” will take place at the most magical of places – on Main Street. U.S.A. at the Walt Disney World Magic Kingdom – with dozens of Disney characters.

HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL MANIA: Two Year of a Million Dreams winners will serve as VIPs at the star-studded film premiere of “High School Musical 3,” and rub shoulders with the celebrities at the debut of the next installment of the record-setting Disney Channel movie series. Pictured: a photo illustration of a stretch limousine door opening and the “Dream” winner preparing to step out onto the red carpet.

DISNEY’S PRIVATE ISLAND FOR THE DAY: One winner during Disney’s Year of a Million Dreams in 2008 will be awarded his or her own private Bahamian paradise for the day. The winner and up to three guests will lounge in the lap of tropical luxury – all by themselves – on Castaway Cay, Disney Cruise Line’s private island. Disney amenities will be at their fingertips, with overnight accommodations provided on a private yacht. Pictured: In a photo taken at Castaway Cay, the Disney Cruise Line private island in the Bahamas, the red carpet is rolled out and the Disney cast and crew are awaiting the “Dream” winner.

I know this dream will be of interest to several people here-

The secret labs of Walt Disney Imagineering have long been off-limits to the public and off-limits even to most Disney Cast Members. Now, one winner and a guest will get an unprecedented look behind the magic as they play "Sorcerer's Apprentice" for a day.

Led by an Imagineer, they'll tour the Walt Disney Imagineering campus, where they might see blueprints for the latest Disney Parks' blockbuster, play-test an attraction in development or see the inner workings of an Audio-Animatronics figure, all as part of a Disneyland Resort VIP vacation. When you peek behind the curtain, you never know what you might discover.

[Disneydol]

WOW! My jaw hurts from hanging open while reading all of these great new prizes!

I'd love the hot air balloon ride - but when I read Mufasa's note - I was floored! Can you imagine...???

[NikonLady]

OM goodness! My daughter would LOVE the one Mufasa is talking about. However, since she's a CP Intern...we can't even enter. ARGH!

This is a great site...Thank you all for the information!

[chrisb26]

Thanks for the update

I think it would be awesome to get a ride on that Hot Air Balloon or get that Giant Breakfast on Main Street! I just saw what Mufasa said I think that would be my favorite thing to get that would be awesome to see!

[Deesdisney]

I hope I can get something next year since it looks like I will be going a couple of times. One would make me feel great.
I would love the DVC membership, my dh trip around the world, DD 4 would love the character breakfast, and all of us hopes for the night in the castle.
Here goes the dreaming again.

[DisneyDudet]

OK, if the dreams this year weren't enough, I WILL be sending out postcards everyday!

[Iluvpooh]

Dang-I was hoping that the "new" dreams would start being given away on October 1st-not Jan 1st. Oh well-I guess I'll have to settle for this year's dreams when we go in a few weeks.

[MickeyandTink]

Unfortunately we didn't win anything this last week when we were there. However, there's always next year and the prizes look even better than this year's. I'll be getting my postcards ready as well to send out.
