We are less than a week away from the Ultimate Disney Fan Event! What can we expect to hear?

We were off for a week, so lots to catch up on!

Lightning Lane Multipass debuted at Walt Disney World, we’ll discuss the effects it’s already having and give you some tips to make the most of it!

Spooky season creeps closer, and more dates for Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party have sold out. Meanwhile, over in California, the Oogie Boogie Bash has started teasing some new villains for this year and is showing off some of the merch you can get, for those lucky enough to have grabbed a ticket, that is.

Speaking of spooky, the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland opened early to guests, despite being surrounded by construction walls. It opened with its seasonal overlay, Haunted Mansion Holiday, inspired by The Nightmare Before Christmas, and is using a virtual queue system to keep the crowds down in the area.

Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort has now begun requiring wristbands to enjoy the Fuentes del Morro Pool. Is this just a test or is it about to spread to all the resorts?

Back at Disney’s California Adventure, Deadpool and Wolverine have started appearing, for a limited time, at Avengers Campus.

Also last week, Disney announced details for its 8th cruise ship, The Disney Destiny! Packed with some of the favorites from the Treasure, like the Haunted Mansion Bar, but also teasing new experiences such as a Pirates of the Caribbean-themed lounge, and more! We’ll discuss all the announcements.

We are just days away from the D23: Ultimate Disney Fan Event, known for huge announcements. We’ll talk about a few of the things we suspect will be shared at the Parks and Experiences panel on Sunday, as well as make a few educated wishes as to what we would like to see happen.

Over at Universal, they announced the 5th and final land for Epic Universe, set to open in 2025. The Harry Potter and the Ministry of Magic land looks to be a great addition to the existing attractions in Orlando. Now that they’ve announced them all – which one land are YOU most excited for?

And, we’ll talk Passholder perks, Muppets, Fantasmic fires, Fuel Rods and more!

Join us for all of this tonight on ParksCenter!
