This is super pricey, but could be a fun alternative for a non-park day where most of the day is spent relaxing/spending time at the resort/ etc. There's something that sounds quite fun about a waterpark at night.

In general, I am growing tired of upcharge events. But at least they aren't removing anything from paying day guests for this!
 




Will there be AP discounts?

Not sure yet. The news so far doesn’t mention them, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be any.

It sure would seem to me that Disney should and would need to entice AP/DVC folks with a bit of a discount - there are lots of nights to fill attendance here. But totally speculating there. :confused3

The discounted rate for DVC Members and Annual Passholders is $49.
 
From the "Reactive FAQs" page of the announcement on "The HUB".

How much does it cost?
Pricing for the event is $55 for adults and $50 for kids ages 3-9, with a discounted rate of $49 for DVC
Members and Annual Passholders.

Cool, thanks!

What does the “Reactive FAQ” say if I respond that that’s a pretty poor AP discount! :faint:
 
How to respond to AP & DVC Guests who complain that the discount is pretty poor.
:rotfl2::rotfl2::rotfl2:


ETA, can you tell I'm off today?
You’re having too much fun! :D A family of 4 can save $14...and then buy 3 Mickey Bars.

Does the Hub have anything on when the Party Guests can enter TL?

Nope, but if party guests need to have a wrist band, that process many times starts anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour before the event begins. For those Guests arriving early, I can see them being allowed in as soon as they have their wrist bands. On most party nights TL closes and the party begins at 8pm, so there's the issue of day Guests and party Guests being inside TL at the same time for a while.
 
So do you get access to the full park and all the water rides or is it just a "beach party"?
