Yeah, not THAT exciting for annual pass holders. ALTHOUGH, it sounds like there will be more details to come about the special experiences & entertainment we might be seeing. Interesting.

Yeah, that cake is GORGEOUS!!

PS: Considering my birthday is July 21st & Daniel's is one week before Christmas (Dec. 18th) I doubt we'd ever be in WDW or DL for either birthday!

Ok, sounds great at first, but, what about the people who have parkhoppers or aps already purchased? I don't get it.

Yes, I noticed that they mentioned special experiences too but, I wonder if there is a fee involved with those celebrations....
Guess I'll just wait for more info.....

You have to register online at disney. If you already have a pass or paid ticket to get in they say to just bring it along with proof that's your b-dy & ID and you get to choose from other free gifts instead.

ummm, that's what I was thinking. I buy the package, my parks are already paid for. This is going to attract a lot of locals and the parks will be fuller yet
Heh, and darnit, I am arriving the day after my birthday

You bet there will be a fee. I mean it costs something like $3000 smackeroos to have Mickey and Minnie at your wedding for a half hour or so. This will be done to generate income

Re: Disney's BIG ANNOUNCEMENT today! New celebration & get in for FREE on your birthd

Hmmm, I'm not sure this is the best promo for us regular visitors. It may bring in some more day trippers, and up crowd levels, which is good for the mouse's pocket though. I wonder what the "other free gifts" would be. I have to tell you though, I don't expect much. This past week, I traded one of our TS credits for a CS at the food court at the Poly and the stupid mesh bag that you got with the trade promo looks like a throwback from the dollar store! It was a totally cheesy offer and not even worth considering except we had the credit left over and we didn't want to go out for our reservation that morning!

That was a great idea. I'm sure that will boost park attendance.
