The Great Zo Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 I've never been to California. Think that's gonna have to change. Very glad I'll be able to attend WCB for the first time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joelwee Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Nice! These are my home parks, so I'll try to make it to at least one of those days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJLehto Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Darn, too last minute for me, already had to book other plans (gah family and friend weddings getting in the way of matters!) But I am very glad to see WCB is back! Because now I can prep for WCB 2019 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 ^ If they hold a WCB next year. I'm hoping they do, even though Disney Resort won't be part of it. But, the brand spanking new GALAXY's EDGE will be open by then. And if they don't hold a 2019 WCB...no big deal. We're still going that Sept. I hope everybody who does go this year, has a great time!

lilkingjr1 Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 I am SOOO unbelievably excited for this right now!!! I’m sure there’s a very reasonable reason why there wasn’t a WCB in 2017 that I haven’t read about yet, but I was super worried that it was going away for some reason. So glad to hear it’s back! Thank you SO much TPR staff for making this a possibility!!! <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same, I decided Im going next year WCB or not. But ya know, cant get ERT on my own. Its a great event, I hate that for various reasons I keep missing it/doesnt happen. But alas, Im glad its back and will keep the faith its on next year! Enjoy everyone its a great time. EDIT: OH! Should say my friend's wedding is that weekend, so Im not upset about the timing of this announcement. Even if it was announced 6 months ago I couldnt have gone still. I know right.....couldn't pick any other damn weekend to get married Edited July 20, 2018 by JJLehto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 (edited) ^^ I'm correcting myself here, but apart from the Justice League dark ride in SFMM, that was it for what opened in 2017 at both parks. So what I think the reason for not doing Bash was - no new coasters to ride, (like Hang Time this year) and that was it. I could be wrong. But I was a bit unsure myself, wondering if the weekend had been shut down for good. Yay for them doing it again! ^ And they may just do a WCB next year, if only because of the new stuff in DL, and people would want to add on time (like we will) to visit the Resort as well as the WCB weekend.

JJLehto Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Not a Disney person myself, BUT we're already off topic. Glad WCB is back I am going to CA next Sept, epic 2 week vaca me thinks. If WCB happens, even better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cosmic hearse Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Awesome! My group of friends were put on notice in the Spring when the "WCB is happening" email came out. They were literally asking if I had heard anything about 2 days ago. We're all excited and always grateful for all the work that goes into planning this. Thanks Robb & company!

I would love to do a trip like this in September, but we are still deciding if we are going to hold Michael's memorial service in Massachusetts that weekend or the next, so I (like you, Bill) will wait to see if there is one next year. And if there is another Oktoberfest trip scheduled instead, I may jump on that one too! I just hope that everyone will actually behave themselves for WCB 2018 as I know that is why TPR doesn't do a lot of these events anymore. Be good people...and don't ruin it for others by going all Mr. Corn (IE: whining and complaining if things don't go as you had expected)!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

805Andrew Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 As soon as I get the days off work approved I'm in. Sunday shouldn't be a problem but I have to hope there's no busy events scheduled that Saturday as Knott's is the day I really want to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orangeblue Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 (edited) Sounds awesome! What do people typically do for lodging? Both Knotts and SFMM have hotels within walking distance, but the parks are almost 1 hour, 15 minutes apart (without traffic). Does it make sense to just stay by Knotts and drive over to SFMM for the day? Would the Sunday morning drive to SFMM from Knotts be pretty hectic?

SharkTums Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 ^It's really what you like better. A lot of people base camp at the Knott's hotel (especially if they'll also be visiting Disney on the trip). But if you don't like to get up early, switching hotels is also possible.
