You can try Guest Relations when you're down there. I've heard anecdotally of people who've been able to purchase last minute.

Generally no, but it doesn't hurt to ask at Guest Relations (not the ticket windows) day-of.

Does anyone know if they ever have day of tickets available? We have family joining us that didn’t purchase and now find the June 13th event sold out :(

Correct. This is about the same timeframe as when they cut them off last year.

I could be 100% wrong on this, but I've been under the impression that additional dates will not be announced for 2024. These AH events at DHS already run into MNSSHP season, and adding more dates during that time (or into November/December and MVMCP) would run the risk of cannibalizing sales of those tickets.

How long do you think it will take to announce dates for September

Ah ok. You were counting from 7 when they let people in. My mistake as you said you're not an AP holder. Forecast had storms til 9 so I went at 930 for the exclusive time. Then a quick surprise storm made things weird and I didn't have time to hit all the big rides. I understand shutting slinky at that point, but it not coming up for another hour and a half over lightning mixed out really messed up the rest of the event for me. This is only because I'm a pass holder and could do all of the rides at the party for the cost of G+ and an ILL for rise on any other day. If not for the weather I think it would have been a great event. I may try again next year if they are still ongoing. Also I'm glad you had a good time. The Epcot event sounds amazing as well

Yes we must have been at the same event as Slinky was down most of the night. Now that you mention it, I do believe they were only running the left size of Toy Story Mania, so that is my mistake. We arrived at 7:15pm. We did: • Star Tours (no wait) • Falcon (20 min) • Swirling Saucers (no wait) (9pm park closing) • Toy Story Mania (10 mins) • Rise (no wait) • Mickey & Minnie (no wait) • Tower (no wait) • Toy Story Mania again (10 mins) • Slinky (10 mins) — admittedly we lucked out as it came online right we were exiting TSM At EPCOT they were at least running all sides of Guardians, Remy, and Soarin'. That's where my mind was when I typed the post.

Do you mean the deluxe after hours or the DAH events? On Wed the 4th at DHS DAH I'm pretty sure they were running TSM with only one track while Slinky was down most of the night and other rides were in and out of service. Slinky likely went down due to weather early on but didn't come back up until midnight. If you were at the same event then I'm curious to hear what your order of operations was. I chose poorly
