Mike, Pam, and Rikki are here today to discuss some of our favorite "niche" celebrations from years gone by at Walt Disney World! From the "Frozen Summer" at Disney's Hollywood Studios where you could ice skate and literally "build a snowman" to Star Wars Weekends, Super Soap Weekends, ESPN: The Weekend, the Happiest Celebration on Earth & more, we talk about what we loved about these events!
