    I have always thought a Country Music weekend with Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley would come and do concerts and autographs and behind the scenes discussions.

    Disney Channel weekends could also bring out the crowds as well as Dis Freak Brent's recommendation of ABC Primetime Weekends which I love the concept

    Any others?

    The events grow tiresome ... and stale. Even things like Flower and Garden Fest are not able to truly grow every year (excepting extra ticket items and more merchandise) organically.

    They start.

    They improve.

    They stagnate.

    They recycle.

    They cut things out.

    They make them less special.

    So, no, I don't want to see any new themed weekends or special events because Disney won't invest in them in the right way.

    LE pins, plush and vinyl ... keep it!

    but will agree that very few things have the attraction/staying power of Star Wars

    Rebuild Horizons, WoM, tear down the tarps and LaL, and redo the aesthetics.

    Make it a VERY long weekend. ;-)

    HORIZONS
    FOOD ROCKS (I think this is what it was called)
    MR TOAD'S WILD RIDE
    CAROUSEL OF PROGRESS
    My mind is a blank. I can't think of any other attractions.
    Please refresh my memory.

    I fear that you may have caused a rip in the Spacetime Continuum!

    Is that similar to letting one rip in the Spacetime Continuum?

    That can be a devastating experience if you are wearing a spacesuit.
