CoP

Well according to the Disney site Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress is "open seasonally".

I suppose that's a good thing. At least it is not being torn apart.

But does anyone know exactly when is it open?

I missed it on my last trip :( .

I just love that ride. It's a Walt Origanal, it's air conditioned, it has some entertainment value, it's the perfect break.

Just as a side note - I can remember the theme song, "now is the time", it is what I rememberd the most from Disney during my first visit back in '91(I think). I annoyed my parents with it the whole 24 hour ride back home. :D

Carousel of Progress

I would assume that you will see Carousel of Progress open about the same schedule as Timekeeper. During busy seasons. If for some reason Disney can find another sponsor for the attraction, which at this poins seems highly unlikely, they will open it back up. But I would put my money on it being moved or removed to make way for an additional e-ticket ride in tomorrowland. As you may know, the Disneyland Carousel of Progress was shut down a couple of years ago and reborn as an innoventions type attraction.

Timekeeper will be open for two weeks starting December 23.

You can sign a petition to save Carousel of Progress here:

Yep, I was right, for once!

You heard it here first, Carousel of Progress will re-open for Christmas.

Just like I said, similar time schedule to the Timekeeper. Hopefully it will be packed during it's limited hours. Maybe management will see that it is a beloved ride and worth keeping.

This could be the last chance to enjoy Carousel of Progress.

Re: CoP

I think they should just pave over the whole thing.
What do you think Merlin Matt?

No no no no


There's a great big beautiful tomorrow
Shining at the end of ev'ryday
There's a great big beautiful tomorrow
And tomorrow's just a dream away

Man has a dream and that's the start
He follows his dream with mind and heart
And when it becomes a reality
It's a dream come true for you and me

So there's a great big beautiful tomorrow
Shining at the end of ev'ryday
There's a great big beautiful tomorrow
Just a dream away

Wow, what inspired you to resurrect this post from the grave?

It would make sense if you had new relevant information but *sigh* you didn't.

Trying to see how far I could make it walk. But you busted me.
As you know - I have nothing relevant to offer.

Re: CoP

Hey there Mc M! Welcome to the Buzz. This is a Zombie thread I found buried somewhere dark. It was a poor attempt at humor on my part.

Stick around though - I get funnier.

And yes, I believe it's still seasonal although it's always been open when I have wanted to go on it!
