Of course... if they had chosen to make a big deal celebration of the MK's 35th anniversary on Oct 1st, maybe.. just maybe, there would be something exciting happening at WDW during your upcoming visit.

While I am personally excited to know that WDW is turning 35 this year I can see where Disney marketing could be saying "why celebrate 35 when we just celebrated 50". Besides, I would rather have an all-out bash for EPCOT's very deserving 25th! As for anything going on during the dates you specified, I agree that the Food & Wine Festival is a real "treat". It is by far one of my most favorite reasons to celebrate at WDW and in my favorite park, EPCOT. I usually stash away a pocketful of cash to sample all of the great eats and drinks. Now that I am a central Florida resident I may need to save a little more for the multiple trips to the fest this year. Don't miss it!

And yet... more happenings and special events went on at TDR last year over the US parks conbined. Go figure.

Originally Posted By deephil Wow thanks for all the info guys TDLFAN we were at DL for 50th anniversary it was great (sept to oct) think we might pop in on the NFFC thanks for the info Mickeysattic the only thing I could not see is wether there is a charge for it or not. It looks like fun and a chance to see (meet) some history of disney. Still have not heard about Halloween does anyone know if this will be on? I so enjoyed the trick or treating (as we are not allowed it over here and I get silly looks also as old HEHEHE).
