Went to California Adventure yesterday and found out that the attraction is offically going to be opened to the public on Jan. 22nd. They said there is a possibility of a "soft" opening before then but it was uncertain. I asked if they would be handing out the VMK Door Teleporter Cards early if there was a soft opening and they said probably not.

So, January 22nd, Be ready to Hit California Adventure!! :) :)




(I apologize in advance if this news has been announced, I searched the forums and didn't see it.)

Hey Tink,

Sounds like we needs to set our alarm clocks early for a Sunday. ;)

Soft opening has already been happening since before Christmas and the Disneyland website is no longer listing the ride as "coming soon." The bad thing about a soft opening is that they have closed the ride at certain days/times without notice like New Year's Eve.

See these threads about the ride (may **spoil** what's in the ride):

Actually they have been doing test runs only, that is why it's been off and on, and right now it's open to all cast members until January 12.
I believe soft opening is when it stays open to public but only earlier than expected.

Park Maps as well as the billboard (as of 1/11/06) and the Posters at the ticket booths advertise the Monsters Inc ride as "ride it today" and the ride was open though today it broke down while I was riding it and they had to turn on the lights and escort everyone off the ride (interesting experience, though i wished my camera battery wasn't low as well as my memory card not full, lol)
