According to Drew's posts (I trust Drew) HtH has to happen before, and the announcements will likely last a good portion of the week just looking at previous years. I'm very sure just looking at stats (and know because I know the date lol) that it's not tomorrow.

I wouldn't be surprised if they also announced the opening date tomorrow along with Halloween stuff. Disney likes to do a lot of these news dump days so I can definitely see tomorrow being a news dump full of a bunch of stuff. But they're also very unpredictable when it comes to this sort of stuff or at least unpredictable to me.

783310783311783312783313783314 Here’s some additional photos from yesterday, May 4. The newest addition in the queue is the "children garden," as well as the walls being pushed back near the entrance for some breathing room in the walkway. There's no log testing on weekends (as of now) but everything was lit up!

Absolutely, you are correct, yet their "plan" they have decided on has meant for Halloween to be announced before Tiana, for whatever reason. Now that this is happening, Tiana will follow.

They could have announced an opening date as soon as they knew it. They didn't have to wait for anything else to be announced first.

With all of this entire storyline advanced from the plot of the original film, we don't yet know if Tiana's Hot Sauce and Foods factory will survive the great depression.... Or did Tiana's Palace close down due to the crash, and the Foods factory was a next step in rebuilding with the New Deal?

Not as a part of the Halloween announcements, but the Halloween stuff finally being announced is what we had to get before the opening date can be announced. Now that this is happening, we are golden. I do not know any information about the Halloween announcements, but what I *do* know is that these had to happen *before* the Tiana date is announced. Yep, presumably going to light up the Tiana's Foods sign. It should be going up any day now.

Is the spot up at the top of the building where a light will go?

Dr. Facilier M&G from Oogie Boogie Bash coming to MNSSHP? Or is the announcement going to be set to the "Are you ready?" section of Friends on the Other Side?

Because it will be open at MNSSHP, I presume.

Halfway to Halloween announcements start tomorrow, May 6. There's a reason I'm posting that here.

while I dont know for sure it is looking like they did away with the high up black lit prop scenes in the shop, if you all remember what I'm talking about. Not that they were major or anything but they were charming details.
