DoctorDalek 7 Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 I saw posted on a Facebook page that this person has heard a rumor there might be another 24 hour Disney day memorial day weekend. Has any one else heard anything like that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 The original post on Mice Chat is here...http://micechat.com/microposts/monstrous-summer/ First I've heard of all this, but I've been slacking on my Disney web trolling lately. I did some digging and did find some posts about "Monstrous Summer" although it seems that the source of this rumor is a couple of Twitter feeds from other non-Disney sites. ‘Monstrous Summer’ Planned for Walt Disney WorldPosted by Blake Taylor2 weeks ago A press event held April 25-26 at Walt Disney World will be themed to Pixar’s Monsters University. Disney promises a “Monstrous Summer” ahead, with details about future projects and “new-for-summer attractions” revealed at this by-invitation-only event. The news comes from the Twitter feeds of Florida-based news sources Inside the Magic and Orlando Attractions Magazine. Nothing earth-shattering is expected to be revealed concerning the Monsters University side of things. (Property-wide signage heralding the “Monstrous Summer” tagline would be aiming high.) However, the film’s tie-in does spark some interesting potential. A similar event held last spring was themed to Phineas and Ferb, and included appearances and interviews with the show’s creators and voice talent. I would be surprised if a few Pixarians weren’t slated for a presentation or two this year. While the general public would not have access to attend these presentations in person, Orlando social media is all about sharing the love, meaning there will be plenty of outlets to tune in live via Ustream or Twitter, should such Monsters University fun be planned for the press event. That is pure speculation, but it would seem likely: Disney fills the press in on summer promotions, throws in some backstage insight of Monsters University, and the media reports on both. It’s a win for everybody. http://www.therotoscopers.com/2013/03/13/monstrous-summer-planned-for-walt-disney-world/ I'm trying to find any sort of official press release about the reported April 25-26 Monstrous Summer event, but so far no luck. Any mention of another 24-hour day seems to so far be only discussion board rumor. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lou... 3,118 Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 As of today, May 24th on the official internal, never wrong, WDW calendar, is just another day at MK. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
