Is there a private event happening Thursday night? Or is it Friday?
• During this period you will also have exclusive access to Diagon Alley and all of its experiences so you can capture additional information and images for your story.
I hope UOR announces the Diagon Alley opening date before or during the Wednesday 8PM Red Carpet Event. It would be incomprehensible to host hundreds of media to a live event and invite thousands of webcast viewers without announcing the opening date.
<rant begin> If that happens, I might give up on #potterwatch. In July, I must move from Florida to Chicago for graduate school and I am trying to squeeze in a big Universal vacation beforehand. Planning is absolutely impossible without an opening date!</rant end>
This sucks. With softs/opening so late into the summer crowds are going to be insane. Was hoping to visit with less crowds like last year, but that won't be happening until end of Sept/Oct time frame.
News is that they will be soft opening up either D.A or the H.E tomorrow.
You will find out the opening date soon.
I feel like the conversation continues like this:
"when?"
"after its open"
Park Maps printed that will be used starting the 21st have diagon on them
NopeNews is that they will be soft opening up either D.A or the H.E tomorrow.
Park maps are set up to be printed a few weeks out, so with the ever moving target of softs they had to line it up to start being printed on there at some point.This seems like an important detail. Would they distribute maps without the land being open for long? What was the timeline like for Transformers, Despicable Me or HP phase 1?

Nope

Maps are used for 2 weeks before a new set is printed up and put out.
So late into summer? Barring any unforeseen setback it will be open before June ends so at worst 9 days into summer isn't that late.
