Cheers, Jill! Before you know it, you'll be cheering on your favorite team at the UCA National High School Cheerleading Championship at the
ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex and making lots of magical memories on and off the cheer mat! This exciting event combines winning routines, spirited competition, and lots of celebrating as teams from all over the nation vie for the title of National Champions!
Jill, the celebration party scheduled for Sunday night at
Disney's Hollywood Studios is the culminating event for this competition and features dance parties, DJs, food, beverages, and some of the park's most popular attractions for the exclusive use of cheerleaders to help them celebrate the end of their season! If you plan to attend the party on a day you do not wish to use a standard theme park ticket, you will be permitted to enter starting at 9 PM. I do recommend getting to the park a little before that time to go through security so you don't miss a minute of the fun, but there is not typically early entry for this event without using a park ticket in addition to your party ticket.
In looking at the
Park Hours and Events Calendar, the park will close at 9 PM on this night with
Fantasmic! showing at 9:30 PM, which gives you an exciting opportunity to view this nighttime spectacular if you're interested! If you're more interested in chasing thrills, you will hopefully find shorter wait times for the scheduled attractions, which include the following:
- Tower of Terror
- Rock 'n' Roller Coaster
- Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway
- Muppet Vision 3D
- Star Tours: The Adventure Continues
- Millennium Falcon: Smuggler's Run
- Toy Story Mania
- Alien Swirling Saucers
- Slinky Dog Dash
Jill, I hope this helps! Remember to collect your party wristbands ahead of time at the registration venues when you arrive in Orlando so you'll have what you need to gain access to this special event! If you have any other questions, feel free to come back anytime and
let me know!
You've Got a Friend in Me,
Alison
