White Christmas 2024

[Miloja84]

White Christmas 2024 tickets are now on sale. 
Seems pretty similar to other years. 
 

[TV15]

Flash Speed Force has been added to the ride lineup, but no mention of Wizard of Oz Precinct.

[DaptoFunlandGuy]

I would think that's because the ride has opened, and is therefore at least a good chance of being up and running during the event, whereas Oz hasn't debuted, and may still run into issues prior to opening that delay it until after WC. 

If you're planning WC with a view that WOZ will be open, prepare yourself to be disappointed. If it has soft opened and is operating on the night, consider it a bonus.

[Brad2912]

Yeah agree, obviously the later date you book the higher chance you may find it open, but nothing guaranteed.

i wouldn’t be surprised if the area will open prior to the first night of White Christmas, maybe that’s why the event doesn’t start until the 7th instead of earlier.

also, does anyone know how many nights the event is normally on? it seems like there’s fewer dates this year but i could be wrong.

Last year they added more dates later on so maybe they’ll do that again as it sells out fast.

Generally nights are added for WC each year, after the announcement, depending on ticket sales, and aren't on the calendars above.

Yeah, I say we will get two more if nights sell out.

[DaptoFunlandGuy]

The midweek dates tend to start when school holidays does, no?

 

And yeah - they've always added extra dates for WC - they'll wait until these fill up before they release more.

[Brad2912]

We’ve previously seen Wednesday and I think Tuesdays added 

[Naazon]

Sunday 22nd could be added too, but I personally would hold off unless demand was high enough due to higher staffing costs.

Strange it says sold out, but you can still buy or redeem tickets for 21st

 

[Naazon]

VRTP has history of doing this. If you check previous years threads you will be able to find almost identical comments.

Ahh well if it keeps crowd sizes that little bit smaller and more enjoyable, I’m all for it!

[TV15]

[themagician]

If anyone’s got tickets to the event over the next 3 nights, you might get to check out Wizard of Oz at night! Tickets are still available for Sunday if anyone hasn’t already got them and wants night rides.

[Brad2912]

WoO not part of WC this year. Pretty rubbish given it’s open now officially. 
 

WWF closed too 

And spaceshot…

Makes sense to not give your new attractions away for free, especially when you just spent 100,000 billion, trillion dollars on it.

Makes no sense. The more people that experience and love it will increase uptake in annual passes and increase positive word of mouth. 
 

in saying that, we’re now at 5 plus years of JL not functioning beyond 50%, and today there is no air con in the show building which makes for just fantastic fun…

 

VTP more interested in GCB fluff pieces than giving people a great time  

[Brad2912]

I do have to give them props for trying to fleece guests…

 

when you buy tickets to the buffet (which is the quietest I have ever seen it -half tables are empty) there is pop up that asks if you want to add a Bugs bunny Christmas sack for $10, usually $20. I passed on it as I’m a little past Santa sacks. Lo and behold, you arrive at the buffet and your “free” gift is said Santa sack. 
i’d be pissed if I had paid for it 

 

also kudos on removing self service soft drinks from the buffet… certainly cuts down consumption when you have to get in a line at the bar to get a refill of your coke…

 

no character visits either..

[Vidgamer]

I think they do removed pizza from the buffet this year? Is that right?

Correct
