View Full Version : YMD (Year of a Million Dreams) Prizes
Galaxee 01-01-2007, 02:18 AM The Year of a Million Dreams
My question is, have you gotten a prize from the Dream Team?
What I found out:
The Dream Team is a group of Cast Members that go around the park giving out prizes randomly to celebrate the Year of a Million Dreams. Often the prizes include Dream Mickey ears (pictured), Dream FASTPASSES, and from what I've heard, lanyards with rare pins, even Annual Passes and exclusive use of the park!

I have never actually seen the dream team, but from what I hear, they wear bright blue suits and Cast Member badges.
Nobody knows when or where they will appear and give out prizes. In fact, THEY don't even know! They get a call on their radio that tells them what to give out and where. They do give out Dream FASTPASSES (which is a card that has one FASTPASS for every FASTPASS ride) at the exits of rides.
I have gotten a pair of Dream ears like the ones above. I did not see the dream team, however. I was looking for them, and asked around. This information was compiled from what they told me. I got my ears from some very nice Japanese tourists, who I tried to ask. Needless to say, I am much better at reading and writing Japanese than speaking it.
If you know anything about the Dream Team, have gotten a prize, have a picture to share, or anything else related to the Dream Team, please share! Also, if any of the above information is incorrect, please tell me and I will fix it.

Oranges 01-01-2007, 02:20 AM I recently got the Dream FASTPASS tickets - coincidentally, they gave them to us minutes after park opening.
However, I could call them "Dream" FASTPASS tickets if they were unlimited use, but hey, I can dream, can't I? :Tongue:

Fantasysurfingboy 01-01-2007, 02:31 AM One of them gave my sister a Dream Tinkerbell Wish Pin for her Lanyard it is a very rare pin for it.
Neoteny 01-01-2007, 02:35 AM We happened upon the Dream Team in Disney's California Adventure just after they ran out of ears. :(
mcginnmom 01-18-2007, 12:59 AM We got one of the Tinkerbell pins too! They're really nice.
Bestwheels 01-18-2007, 01:53 AM Me and my sister got Annual Passes!! Yay!
manunderwater 01-18-2007, 01:59 AM I got Cloud Ears, in the future, since I go very very often, I know I will get the Lanyard, the Fastpasses, and some good things! I really hope for free Annual Passes and the Mickey Mouse Penthouse!
MinnieMagic 01-18-2007, 02:06 AM I have seen the fast passes first hand and they are cards that you wear around your neck. They are rather large. I saw many of them in line for rides while we were at WDW during Christmas. Other prizes were as you stated, but you missed a big 1. They randomly select a family each week to stay in the castle apartment for free. Yes thats right for free.
Eviie 01-18-2007, 02:13 AM Whoever has pics of all these neat prizes let me know
KrazyDopey 01-18-2007, 02:30 AM Thanks for the great information! I totally hope I get caught by the DreamSquad[or team], Maybe I should get a big sign screaming PICK ME!! on it.. LOL I must have those ears @_____@

Wait, so you like asked some people for them? lol, My friend told me he saw some in a store at DLR, but I kind of don't believe him heh.. Is there any other way than getting DreamSquaded[Teamed] to get those shiny cool ears?
manunderwater 01-18-2007, 02:47 AM Me and my sister got Annual Passes!! Yay!
I just found out, you can't win APs.
fantasylion 01-18-2007, 02:51 AM Yes you can 0_0 I watched a dream member give one away (LUCKIES!!)
Neoteny 01-18-2007, 02:54 AM Wait, so you like asked some people for them? lol, My friend told me he saw some in a store at DLR, but I kind of don't believe him heh.. Is there any other way than getting DreamSquaded[Teamed] to get those shiny cool ears?
Nope, those ears are not for sale. Well, not officially, anyway. There's always eBay.
The ears they have in stores are different. They do have blinking lights on them, though.
manunderwater 01-18-2007, 02:54 AM Yes you can 0_0 I watched a dream member give one away (LUCKIES!!)
those are probably Dream Fastpasses, you can not win Annual Passes.

Cool, do they look different? Is the logo on the hat different or something?
technogirl 01-18-2007, 03:02 AM I've seen the Dream Fasspasses and tried to get them by going to DLR right at opening. We stayed at a hotel the night before just for fun, but no passes :(. Hehe, there were like no one in line when we went. Anyways, I don't think that they would hand out the fasspasses because basically it would be like giving out free money. I'd like one of those pins ;). Do the Cast members wear lanyards?
DisneyHottie 01-18-2007, 03:05 AM I just went to disney... i got fastpasses and I was on Primeval Whirl and a cast member went up to my sister and told us not to get off the ride, that we were able to go on the ride again!!! That was pretty awesome. Hopefully when I go in March I get some other prize...
Neoteny 01-18-2007, 03:11 AM Cool, do they look different? Is the logo on the hat different or something?
They're completely different. The hat you can buy at the park is dark blue, with silver ears and blinking lights:

The Dreams award hat is light blue, with clouds on it:

Awee, I was hoping for the lightblue/clouds but I love the logo:) & The lights are a plus :)

My wife and I got to ride It's a Small World by ourselves. That was fun! Everybody on the dock was staring at us and wondering what was so special about us that we got our own boat. :)
Kitri 01-18-2007, 03:28 AM Another other great prize you can get is, spending the night in th castle. Call me crazy but it's true!
btw, congrats to all who have won something!
220AM 03-18-2007, 05:06 AM wow...
i went there almost twice every week for a whole year and didnt get any prize. i must be the unluckiest person alive.
Madthing 03-22-2007, 11:14 AM Yeah I went near Christmas time 5 days running. Each at the start of the day...
Neoteny 03-22-2007, 06:26 PM Am I the only one who sees "YMD" and thinks "Year of Mass Destruction"?
Yeah, I probably am.
TikiRoom 03-22-2007, 06:40 PM I see a TON of people with the Dream FASTPASSES, in DLR, but my question is, are the FASTPASSES for both parks, or only the park you are in?
TLynn 03-22-2007, 07:59 PM The ones we got at DLR were for both parks. It is actually two separate fastpasses that hang back to back. The dream fastpasses have tabs for the various rides and when you use it for that ride they break off that tab. Also not all rides with fastpasses have tabs on the dream fastpass.
mcginnmom 03-22-2007, 09:07 PM In WDW each park has its own fastpass and you're given only the one for the park you're in. We got one for Magic Kingdom over spring break that made it a nice day
I was hit up by the dream team on my christmas trip! They were in the Raindeer roundup, holiday only, kinda place, and I got the year of 1000 dreams pin!
WOOOT!!
You get one, then you have to give the other one they give you, to some random park person!
AlexKZ 03-23-2007, 02:20 AM I was hit up by the dream team on my christmas trip! They were in the Raindeer roundup, holiday only, kinda place, and I got the year of 1000 dreams pin!
Wow..the Dream Team must have given you the wrong pin then.

Perhaps some of the funding they were counting on was cut short, so they had to reduce the amount of dreams being granted. Or it was just a typo.
Yeah, probably a typo. :)

I got one from the dream team. They're not given out as much as fast-passes are. So they're are fairly rare.
LadyVader 03-24-2007, 01:49 AM Dream Fast Passes at WDW are good only in the park they are awarded in, if you win at Magic Kingdom they are only good at Magic Kingdom that day. The Dream Lanyard and Pin Set include two pins. And the Dream Ears are the ones pictured with the clouds. There are many prizes being given away, just a week or so a 17 yr. old won the Grand Marshall prize, this is the big prize that will take him and his family around the world to each of the Disney Parks around the world to be Grand Marshall in the parades. This includes, Disneyland, Disneyland Paris, Tokyo Disneyland, and Hong Kong Disneyland. What a lucky kid. His parents thought he was telling a tall tale when he called to tell them he had won. Hahaha!
