Will Year of a Million Dreams end on Dec 31? Thanks

**cinderbella** · 02-08-2008

I am not sure--but in the past they have usually ended celebrations in October but since they extended this I am not sure of the exact end date. I know YOMD's is set to last through 2008 so I would expect it to go through at least December 31st.

Year of a Million Dreams will NEVER end!

Seriously, I think they will end it by 12/31. All of the contests state that 12/31 is the end date.

That makes me sad! I am going back next January.

Well chances are they will have some great new "theme" by then!

I know they will! I was just looking forward to that stay in the castle!

I really hope that even if they do away with year of a million dreams that they continue surprising people with stays in the castle. I would hate to see it shut down or only available to the rich or celebrities.

I agree. I hope it doesn't go to just being a place for the ultra rich.

I agree, I seriously think they should continue the tradition of AT LEAST picking one family per night to stay there. I would be SOOO dissapointed if it turned into some $20k per night lottery. TOTALLY against the concept, I have faith they'll do the right thing once the "contest" ends. [fingers crossed]

Yes sadly the YOAMD is scheduled to end on 12/31...but I'm sure the castle will still be put to good use even after the contest ends! I don't think you could put a value on that room.

Soundgod · 02-09-2008

Regardless of when it ends this fall, it's more like the "Two Years of a Million Dreams" at this point. And yet, I've still only gotten that one dream I was unable to use.
I understand there is an actual waiting list for the Cinderella Suite for when they cease giving it as a prize.
And don't forget there's also Walt's apartment in Disneyland now as well.

LOL!!!

I just saw an episode of Regis and Kelly (Don't ask. I was sick!) and a couple got married on the show. Their honeymoon present was a trip to WDW to stay at GF for awhie and then their kids would join them...

...and then a night in the Castle!!!

YOAMD is so Disney, I don't think they should ever end it! And, if they do they would have to replace it with something much better, what could be better than fast passes, mouse ears, and a night in the castle? Plus, what would they do with the Dream Tream?

dixie · 02-09-2008

I am so please YOAMD goes on for most of 2008- we really were sad we missed it last year and so to know it will be on for our Aug/Sept trip is great news.

A waiting list?! Like for people who are going to pay to stay there, or what?

I will send Disney a long letter with a piece of my mind if they allow people to pay to stay there.
