Walt Disney World 24-Hour Party Trip Report
Over Memorial Day weekend, we headed down to Walt Disney World for the 24-Hour Party, Star Wars Weekends, and just some general good times. During our first trip to Walt Disney World of the year, we dined at a variety of restaurants including Chef Mickey’s, Cinderella’s Royal Table, both Star Wars Character Meals, and more! We also took a ton of photos, and tried out new-to-us things at Walt Disney World.
This trip report takes a look at our experiences during our 5-day Memorial Day weekend trip. This trip report has all of the classic elements of a Bricker trip report: little sleep, lots of photos, tons of eating, and an incredible adventure with Nicolas Cage to kill the ghost of Osama bin Laden. Okay, that reference probably only made sense to SNL fans, sorry, but it if awkward references and unfunny jokes aren’t your thing, it’s probably time to close out this browser tab!

I’m soooo behind on your trip reports….. slowly catching up.
Thanks for offering the giveaway.
I understand how you’ve made travel a priority. Not to sound accusatory, but how are you able to take so much time off? If I remember what you said about your careers, neither you nor your wife are in jobs known for their leisurely hours.
I always love your trip reports- so excited to see a new one!
I’ve never stayed at one of the Downtown Disney Hotels, it would be cool to try out that part or the world!
Downtown disney is a great location to stay!
I just recently found your site and love it!

We had a blast at the 24 hour event. We got to ride the 7 dwarfs mine train and got to a ton of stuff all in one day. We didn’t manage the whole night but my DD 10 and I made it until 2:30am
Love the new Fantasyland, wish we could have made the 24hour party!
