Arrrgh! Pirate and princess parties cancelled!

RowdyRAider · 12-04-2008

Hate to be the bearer of bad news. Just heard from a VERY reliable source that there will be NO Pirate and Princess Parties for 2009. They've all been cancelled. If you bought a ticket already, get ready for a refund.

**DisneyTeacher** · 12-04-2008

That's too bad. We loved the party and hoped to go to another one at some point.

iluvwdw · 12-04-2008

I guess business is REALLY down that they're feeling it in the pocketbook.

momofaprincess · 12-04-2008

Awwww....just not in the budget next year huh? I can understand as part of the reason we enjoyed it so much in feb was due to the low attendance!!!!

Oh well, I suppose...I'll just look forward to going to MVMCP next year! Hopefully they don't take those away too!

mickeysgirlz · 12-04-2008

Wow! Even on a good day, it's sometimes hard to dish out the extra cash for the parties . . . (not that I don't do it!

) So in this economy I'm not surprised!

Here's hoping for their return in 2010!

2nd Star · 12-04-2008

I was hoping to go in May. Thanks for the heads up Rowdy.

emamasa · 12-05-2008

that just stinks!! i was sooo looking forward to it! ok, now to decide if we want to go to seaworld instead that day........

Darn Rowdy you ruined my day

, but I can understand the decision. Disney is obviously trying to cut back in many ways and this is just another. Hopefully they'll bring them back in 2010.

**WishUponAStar** · 12-05-2008

Sad, and scary.

hanwill · 12-05-2008

that's too bad, but, knowing how disney does things... when it does return-it will be better than ever... Just think-they will have a year to plan changes for more fun...

aww I really wanted to go to one!

So this means it's only cancelled for 2009? It could reappear sometime after that?
