20th Anniversary EPCOT Party

Please arrive by 9:30pm to check-in (main entrance/turnstiles Epcot)
Tonight you'll experience Epcot® in 3D, a progressive night full of Dining, Dancing, and Discovery! This is a night where dynamic dimensions collide as the attractions of Epcot® come to life. It is an evening of celebration where you will experience three private parties in one. From the smooth chill of the Future World West, to the thrills of the Future World East, Epcot® in 3D offers a dimension for everyone!
In addition to music, Disney characters and food* you will enjoy endless rides on the following attractions:
Soarin'®
Test Track®
The Seas with Nemo and Friends®
Journey Into Imagination With Figment
But that's not all!!!!!
We will end our evening with our own, private IllumiNations, Reflections of Earth!!!
Just announced - Enjoy a special concert performance by Jodi Benson, The voice of The Little Mermaid!!!!
The cost to attend is $85 per person regardless of age. Theme park admission is NOT REQUIRED to attend this event as it is a private party.
*The menu has not yet been set for this event but given the late hour it will be more 'desserts' and 'snacks' and not necessarily a meal. More details on food to come.
You MUST BE registered for the week event in order to join us for the part. Those already registered will receive an email on how to sign up for party.
UPDATE 12/28/2016
Disney has just released two new discounts that are available during the dates of our event. For details of each offer see these links:
Quick Service Dining Offer =
http://www.wdwinfo.com/discounts/disneypackages.htm#general
Fun in the Sun Offer =
http://www.wdwinfo.com/discounts/disneypackages.htm#general
25% Off Room Offer =
http://www.wdwinfo.com/discounts/discounts-resorts.htm#room
I still don’t have a contract with rates for the group space we are holding for the event so I can’t tell you if these discounts will be better than the group rates.
I strongly suggest that if any of the above offers appeal to you and you can get them for the dates you plan to be here that you book now. These rates will be limited based on availability.
Once I know/release the group rates you can make a decision if you want to cancel your current booking and rebook in the group.
As per Disney’s rules you WILL NOT be able to apply any of the above discounts to the group rates we secure. It will be an either/or situation – you can’t have the group rate and a discount.
UPDATE 01/24/2017
The page to obtain pricing for our group room block is now live:
https://www.dreamsunlimitedtravel.com/reservations/anniversary_start.cfm
One you input your party size, dates, resort, options and then click on "Submit" you will be taken to a page that will display the full cost of what you selected. That page will also include instructions on how to book these rooms.
Please keep in mind that group rates CANNOT be combined with any current or future discount. Also group rates CANNOT be applied to any current booking. If you want to take advantage of the group rates you would have to cancel any current booking you have and rebook with the groups department.
UPDATE 02/13/2017
IMPORTANT: Disney ticket prices increased on 2/12/2017. We have been given permission to add tickets to our group space rooms at the pre-increase price but only if they are purchased by 03/11/2017. If you decide to purchase tickets any time after 3/11/2017 you will pay the higher/current price. If you want to lock in the lower rate you MUST add tickets now and pay for them in full.
If you have already booked your room you can still add tickets at the pre-increase price (until 3/11/2017) by calling the number for groups (appears on the second page of the quote form) and giving them your booking number. Tickets will be due in full at the time of purchase.
You MUST have a room booked in our group to take advantage of this special offer of buying your tickets at the pre-increase price.
UPDATE 03/01/2017
Registration for the 20th Anniversary of the DIS is now open!!!!!
Please go to https://www.dreamsunlimitedtravel.com/reservations/20Anniversary-signup.cfm to registration for the event.
There is a $25 per person registration fee to attend the event. This money goes to offset some of our costs with a portion going to our overall donation to Give Kids the World.
You MUST register for the event in order to sign-up for any subsequent meets/activates we are planning – including our super-duper party on June 1st!!!! That’s right – I said super-duper party!!!! Think DISApalooza but on a much bigger scale.
As we finalize details of the individual meets and activities as well as our party those registered through the link above will received instructions on how to sign-up for these via email.
Again – you MUST be registered for the event to attend other activities we have planned including the party.
Sign-ups for this event will close 05/01/2017 as long as space is left. Please sign up NOW and don't delay if you want to attend.
UPDATE 03/07/2017
We are now accepting items for our Auction to raise money for GKTW.
If you are interested in donating items for our Auction during the 20th Anniversary event we have a form that will make it easier for you to submit, and us to keep track of, the items.
To donate an item please use this form - https://www.dreamsunlimitedtravel.com/reservations/20anniversary-auction-01.cfm
As you step through the process there will be information on where to send the item if you wish to mail it. If you are bringing the item with you to the event we will be letting you know later where/when that can be dropped off. We are still waiting on Disney to tell us where our convention will be for the event so unfortunately I couldn't add it to the current form at this time.
For those already registered for the event itself we will be sending you an email with some instructions that will make the auction donation process a little easier.
Thank you in advance for anything you wish to donate. Let's try to break last years record for money raised!!!!

UPDATE 04/13/2017
Just announced - those attending our Party on 6/1/2017 will enjoy a special concert performance by Jodi Benson, The voice of The Little Mermaid!!!!
! Long story short I have behaved in a very impulsive (and unlike me) way and have booked for two of my three daughters and I to come for the week especially for the party (middle daughter has exams and is fine with us going)! I am beyond excited, though the uber planner in me is a bit panicked at the thought of organising everything and catching up with all the latest news/info in just a few weeks. We normally come for 3 weeks in August and so 1 week in May will be a complete change. For the first time ever I am not dreading going back to work tomorrow as I know I will be in my happy place in 6 weeks 
John, Pete and the gang and also everyone behind the scene for everything you do for us and all the organisation that goes into special events like this. I think it sounds like great value btw 
. I am sure I will be totally star struck and too shy to speak to anyone but just being there will be incredible.
