Camping out early for the 50th? How?

[Alchimedes]

What is the earliest that some of you will be there? And how soon can a person wait outside the gates? Is the earliest 7:00 am?
Will security let you through to the outside of the gates?

Watching this thread to find out for sure myself... I have class at nine, and was hoping to swagger into it at 10 am, giving me just about 90 minutes to enjoy the Walt Disney Story and maybe even the Jungle Cruise. XD

[Disneykat]

Yes I wanna be there early and am curious as to how early I can get there

[disneyfreeek]

I went to Super Soap weekend in 2003, the last one they had I think, and apparently you had to get there at 5 am to get a wristband to meet Susan Lucci. I would say that they are cool about people coming that early. I personally am going to try to get there at 4 or 5, with a blanket and lotso coffee. And, since it's not technically "Line Hopping", i think it's safe to say that we can hold spots for friends.

[Alchimedes]

Save me a spot, I would for anybody on here. I was just wondering if Disneyland Co anticipates this?

[melmel]

I sure hope that they do. I live pretty nearby, and I'm just getting up whenever my roommate does, and groggily making my way to the park in yoga pants and a sleepshirt. XD

Coming with a Blanky is a damn good idea, too. Thanks, disneyfreek. XD

I'm probably getting there around 7. (If I had my way, it would be 6!) I don't mind the huge crowds.. it's my friends that I'm worried about. I don't know how hardcore they are, but my boyfriend is... I think that's all that matters.

[Ghostbuster626]

Im just gonna show up at 7 and wait

Disney Co thinks the party is on May 5th. at Walt Disney World :monkey:

[DisneyParkFan]

I'll probably walk over from the hotel around 7am UNLESS they decide to have the 50 hour party and leave the park open. Then I have no idea when I might (or if) leave the park and return!

[1stStarIC2nite]

Teehee.. I'll be there at 6 :devil: (I am assuming this is a 7/17 thread?)

[dshimel]

I know people that plan on being there from the time Disneyland closes on the 16th.

[DisneyMickey]

When will all the announcmetns and dedications begin on the 5th? I want to know a specific time to be there.

[Ghostbuster626]

Well dont bother coming after 10 AM because the park will most likely be sold out by then.

[mickeyslittlehelper]

I know people that plan on being there from the time Disneyland closes on the 16th.

I will probably be one of them :monkey:

Disneyland is closing on the 16th?! Are they getting ready for the big actual 50th celebration on the 17th? Will DCA be open instead?

And people wonder how rumors get started? :devil:

I know I will probably be one of those people who get there on the 17th REALLY EARLY. Although if Disneyland stays open over-night from the 16th -17th, I don't know when I will be able to return to my hotel room. I'll just stay at the park! Sleep - I must get sleep - Sleep!

[mickeyandme67]

I'm going the day before so I can hide out in the old Fantasyland Skyway Chalet...

--kidding.

[disneyfn]

How about getting there at 7:17 am?

[LSPoorEeyorick]

Here's another request for information regarding the 5/5/05 celebration. Surely I'll be camping out for 6/17, but I want to know if any camping is necessary for 5/5. I hear tell that there'll be an 'arrival' of all of the face and fuzz. All!?

[melmel]

I guess the park doesn't actually open until 9 am, so I might not get there until about 7:30... no reason to wake up THAT early if I don't have to.
