Getting chosen for special events at Disney World – PREP018




WDW Prep To Go Podcast – WDW Prep School show

Summary: There are several special things you can be chosen for at Disney World like parades, shows and park openings. Today, I've got an interview with somebody whose family has been chosen for all of those things. She shares her experiences and tips on getting picked for these special things that can bring a little extra magic to your trip. I also have a quick tip that will let you know a shortcut to exiting one of the nighttime shows. These are notes from this episode. There's much more info included in the audio so be sure to listen to the episode for a better explanation. Interview with Jody Williams Jody has a blog at http://toddjodybrent.blogspot.com where she details the various experiences they've been chosen for. In this episode, she discussed being part of the Animal Kingdom parade, opening 3 of the parks and being part of the Indiana Jones show at Hollywood Studios. Jody also shared some of her tips for increasing your odds of being chosen which include wearing matching shirts, being willing to say yes to what Cast Member's ask (and without hesitation), arriving early and sometimes just a stroke of luck. Here's a video showing the Cast Member named Barbara who Jody mentioned. She makes me happy to watch. Quick tip of the day When you enter the theater for the Fantasmic! show at Hollywood Studios, you come in from the top left part of the theater. When you exit, go out the top right of the theater which will take you right to the front of the park. Subscribe to get new episodes There are a few ways to get new episodes of WDW Prep To Go.
