There is at the moment 23 of these movers on Main Street roof and there looks like there will be more. Plus over in old Chinatown they must be constructing something to go over the old archway entrance

[Reanimated35]

What makes you say that about chinatown? Looks like they just put some ads up?

[lfrit4]

You can't really see it but behind the sign they are installing metal frames around the entrance

I'm not really not interested with this event but hey it's my opinion But it will do good for MW

[kujotess]

Urr no, all those metal frames behind china town were being used to make the carnivale food stalls..

This pic was done for the world cup, but I guess it could somewhat fit....

Well I doubt many people will expect that, considering it's family event, but from what I've heard and seen it will be a night like no other

Ill be there friday. I was there yesterday. The place looks awesome. But I have to say there is close 200 Moving Head Lights now (yes i counted). In my opinion its a bit too many, but the effect they could do with them would be amazing. The roof is starting to look very cluttered. The food stalls are being constructed over at the old lethal weapon entrance and most of the stalls are in the courtyard between the photoshop and ricks cafe. Food prices are a little on the high side but what can you expect, It's theme park after all.

Sea Food Boil up-$25 Prawns, Clams, Mussels, Potato & Corn boiled in spices & served on the table to share, Louisiana Style! Price Per Person, Minimum 2 People (so $50 Minimum)

For those interested here is the food guide to be handed out at the event.

I was hoping to be able to get a few different foods and eat them for dinner but now it looks like I'll picking one thing and sticking to it...

[strop]

^ When I reserved my ticket, I had the option of adding some sort of taster pack, where you got to pick 4 or 5 items for a reduced price. Could be worth investigating. I for one think the food offerings look awesome and sincerely hope they live up to the marketing spiels.

FWIW I know a few people who have had a chance to try some of the food, and the reviews have been pretty spectacular. How it ends up being when it's cooked for the masses is anyone's guess, but the early reviews are very promising.

Carnivale Food Stands are all over the park. But they are not open during the day time.

All of those food stands look really good

I went tonight, it was bloody awesome. Parade went for a solid 30 mins, and floats were animated (A snapping alligator, a blinking beauty, a posiedon waving his triton etc). For the earlier part of the night there were jugglers, acrobats, dancers, fire twirlers at every turn through the park.

In terms of food I ate some spicy sausage and chicken gumbo with rice, hot boneless buffalo wings (top marks for these since the sauce was the proper american taste) a serve of curly/crinkle cut "halfsies" fries with ranch and chipotle, a slice of pecan pie w/ icecream, a slice of key lime pie w/ icecream and a peach/mango mocktail. I feel a bit seedy at present as a result, but worth it ($50 on food in total)

I did JL and GL...First night ride on GL and first time I have seen it running all 6 cars.

Yeah tonight was insane. I had to leave before the parade but when they first dropped the rope on main street it went off. Really impressed with everything about this event. Didn't feel the need to go anywhere near any of the rides there was so much entertainment. Top marks for the food too, especially the seafood chowder. I got a whole heap of footage so I'll se what I can do in terms of a video.

[ShakeShack]

Yeah, I was there tonight with a team of photographers and videographers so you can expect some video from us in the coming day.

[downunder196]

Were you on the left when they dropped the rope? I must've been standing right beside you! Literally...

[ShakeShack]

I was right up on the left corner facing the screen, but others with me were scattered around.

The Parade video is going to take quite a while to export and upload due to it having many cameras and going for about 30mins in length so i will start to upload some more videos starting with the Blues Brothers Band.

[themagician]

I just drove past MW and the carpark was overflowing and people were still queuing outside. I would say that the event is a sell out.

MW has put this on FB: Hi everyone, if the nights sell out there may be additional nights added in July. We will keep you updated as soon as we know!
