This timetable for the second movie fits that schedule. But there's also the fact that every CM who works Westside Attractions has already been told about the Pirates Premiere on June 24th. So basically, Disneyland is closing early on the 24th to host the premiere of the second Pirates movie. It's really true.

The entire west side was closed at 2 PM and cleared of all guests. They used many of the restaurants to serve dinner to the guests (Their VIP badge was color coded, and matched up where they were assigned to eat, of course, the Stars got Club 33 and the Blue Bayou, lesser folks got Rancho del Zocalo and other places. Once the final star walked down the carpet, park guests were asked to leave the area and exit.

I doubt any details will be announced until just before the actual event. But based on last time, you need to get there in the morning to get a front row location.

If you are an AP who goes to Disneyland every month, it can be a fun and novel thing just because Disneyland is totally unlike itself and for a week it looks like Shamu Stadium was picked up by a tornado and landed on New Orleans Square. But if you are a casual visitor or someone spending a bunch of money for a summer vacation at Disneyland, I have pity for you because so much of Disneyland's operation is totally screwed up. If you get a kick out of seeing the backside of B List celebrities as they walk down the red carpet and beg for attention from the Entertainment Tonight TV cameras, then this is your dream vacation. If you want to go to Disneyland, it's pretty crummy.

It was a great premiere last year... we waited for 3 hours and had amazing seats and got to shake hands with Johnny, Orland, and so many more. Everyone was very cordial... except maybe Amanda Bynes. We got autographs and pictures it was amazing! I will definatly be sitting and waiting for this one also!
