UPDATE: This event has been filled to capacity. Please CLICK HERE to view a list of the accepted event attendees. If you are on the list and do not receive a confirmation email by 5 p.m. on Wednesday, please contact us at WDW.BlogMeetUps@disney.com.

Sure, the official opening of “Oz the Great and Powerful” may be a few weeks away, but this Sunday, Disney Parks Blog readers will have a chance to see a special sneak peek screening of the film at Epcot and experience our new “Land of Oz Garden” at the park.

The film tells the backstory of Oz the Great and Powerful. In it, small-time magician Oscar Diggs is hurled away from Kansas and into the Land of Oz. There, he’s drawn into the problems facing the residents of Oz, and must use his magical arts to save them and transform himself into the great and powerful wizard.

  • Thanks Disney for such a fabulous meet up! The whole event was first class! I will be first to admit it was a little difficult to go 2 hours without my phone but I survived and it was worth every minute! The movie was wonderful.

    Thank you

  • I wish I had seen this yesterday! It’s too late now 🙁 We would have LOVED to have been there. Maybe next time we go to WDW

  • For everyone asking about getting a warning on it, they sent out a tweet at least a half hour before saying a meet-up was going to happen and stay tuned. Then they sent out another tweet with the link to sign up, so twitter can be your friend!

  • So excited to have made the list! Have to cancel my Be Our Guest reservation, but I am totally ok with that!! So excited!

  • NM, found the solution. Missed the RSS button on the top of the page. :O)

  • Is there a way to subscribe to be notified of all posts on the blog? I could only find the option to get the daily updates emailed to me the following day. We keep missing out on these opportunities. Thanks!

  • hhmmmmm….why do I get the email ABOUT the meet up the same day as I get the email it was filled up? This happens every single time there is a meetup. All of my DPB emails come the day after they are sent and I don’t know how/if I can change that. Was this posted on FB as well? donna

  • OMG I saw the list earlier and just figured I was out of luck. The website was still up hours later when I refreshed my phone and I’M IN!! So excited. Thanks Disney!

  • YES! Our first Disney Meetup! Super excited! #PrincessHalf in the am – #OzMeetup in the pm – Sunday will be a great day for Team Disney Bride & Groom!!!

  • OK, the list seems to be complete, past J. 🙂 I’m on the list, yay!

  • Hmm, not a single first name after the letter J in the accepted event attendee list? Curious… :/

  • Is it really only for the first part of the alphabet?

  • Is the list up to date I only see A-j

  • Is this the complete list? It has names from A-J only.

  • We are coming from Canada for a family vacation this weekend…..I really hope we get in! It would be a once in a lifetime experience!
