Weekly Theme Park Roundup

It was a pretty quiet week Post-HHN on the theme park front, with now major announcements, but a few events are on the horizon short term for this week

One week from today on November 17th, One Direction will perform live from Universal to debut their new album. Since they will be performing in Citywalk, a ticket to the park is not needed to see the performance, and it is open to the public. They are sure to draw a huge crowd and I plan on staying far away.

Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party began this past weekend reminding everyone that in this day and age there is literally no break from a holiday from September-April. Its goes straight from Halloween to Christmas to Valentines Day to Easter. The event sold out both nights of opening weekend.

After a long construction time, the new Cabana Bay Bridge finally opened at Universal this week. Guests staying at the Cabana Bay Hotel will now be able to walk to the Universal Parks rather than having to wait for a bus.

And finally, this mans account of what it is like working at Disney World has gone somewhat viral among theme park fans. Although this account is hardly breaking news and there are a ton of grammatical errors, it is still worth a read.

Also, a little more HHN. While a full video of this years Bill and Ted has not found the light of day, a short one minute montage of the show did make it was to YouTube. Even though its just one minute long, I feel the video does a really good job of capturing the spirit of the show

That's it for this week, 319 days until HHN 25
