One weekend each fall, stars from the ABC soap operas make appearances at the Disney-MGM Studios. Park Guests are treated to a spectacular interactive weekend with their favorite actors and actresses from the ABC Daytime dramas All My Children, One Life to Live, and General Hospital.
SUPER SOAP WEEKEND

The actors hold regular autograph sessions at stations throughout the park. Many of the stations are along New York Street and around Echo Lake.

TOURING TIPS
NOTE: The Disney-MGM Studios will be opening early at 8 a.m. both mornings.
Crowds for this event are huge -- arrive early to see your favorite celebrities.
There is no additional ticket necessary for the Super Soap Weekend events -- admission is included in regular theme park admission.
Try to obtain a schedule of events before you visit the theme park, so that you can plan your day. Autograph sessions, talk shows and other activities are staggered throughout the day, and the stars rotate through the different events.
Disney's FastPass, used in the theme parks to reduce wait times for attractions, has been used the last few years for "On Location" Autograph Sessions. It will work like this:
FastPass for Super Soap Weekend will work much as regular FastPass works. Visit our FastPass page for details. Note that a FastPass ticket will be required for each autograph. There is no limit to the number of FastPass Tickets a person can get, but there is a capacity limit for each autograph session. However, once all the FastPass tickets are distributed for a particular actor, a limited number of Standby Tickets will be made available. Standby Tickets do not guarantee an autograph, though -- standby ticket holders will be taken if there is time remaining in a session after all FastPass ticket holders have received their autographs.
There will be three distribution areas; one for each of the three ABC shows:
-- All My Children FastPasses will be available at Lights Motors Action! Extreme Stunt Show.
-- One Life to Live FastPasses will be available at Star Tours.
-- General Hospital FastPasses will be available at Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular.
Tickets will be distributed on a first come, first serve basis. FastPasses will begin to be distributed when the park opens and are only good for Autograph Sessions that same day.
For the latest event updates, or more information about the ABC Super Soap Weekend Vacation package, check back to this site, call the Super Soap Hotline at (407) 397-6808 or visit the ABC Super Soap Weekend web site.
Assistive Listening Devices from Guest Services Can Be Used at some of the Super Soap Weekend events.
Reflective Captioning available at some Super Soap Weekend events.
Wheelchair/ECV Users can take advantage of a special viewing area at the main (Sorcerer's Hat) stage. No standing is allowed in this area -- all party members must remain seated in the chairs located in this area. Due to capacity, party sizes are limited in this area to three guests. (The guest traveling in a wheelchair, plus two members of their party.)
KIDS AND CHARACTERS
Super Soap Weekend doesn't usually interfere with the scheduled character meet and greet opportunities at the Disney-MGM Studios, but some locations may be closed due to Super Soap events. Check your daily Times Guide for details.
