Rest In Peace

Disney tries to do new things from time to time with mixed reviews. A few of the Extra Ticket events do well, like Grad Nights and holiday-themed parties, but this one only lasted two years. And what could you expect for your extra money?

The “Pirate and Princess Party”  was held from 7:00pm to 12:00am. Among the activities was Swashbuckling Training and  Captain Jack Pirate Tutorial at the Pirate Coves. The Princess Courts had  special activities for the ladies. Character Meet and Greets were located  throughout the Magic   Kingdom.

Everyone was to be given a Treasure Map and bag. As you followed  the clues you’d uncover beads and chocolate treats.

Each night the “Enchanted Adventures Parade” would take place at 8:15 and 10:30pm. Featured in this  parade was a 39 foot long pirate ship accompanied by a Jolly Roger flag corps. The Princesses would be joined by knights on horseback as well as regal dancers.

The specially themed fireworks “Magic, Music and Mayhem” were scheduled at 9:30pm nightly and would fill the sky. Guest could also look forward to a  Pirate/Princess castle stage show.

Guests were welcome to wear their pirate and princess garb.
