'One More Disney Day' special events schedule for Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom and Disneyland Park

February 28, 2012, 6:06 PM · Tomorrow's the "One More Disney Day," the special 24-hour Leap Day celebration at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom and Disneyland Park, kicking off at 6am local time on each coast.

I'm planning to make the drive down from Pasadena early tomorrow to get to Disneyland before the 6am opening. We'll see how many people have camped out overnight for their chance to get one of those 2,000 special pairs of Mickey ears Disney's giving out in Anaheim. (Then you can check eBay later in the day to see how many show up there!)

If you're planning to take part, in Florida or California, please email your pictures or observations to me at themeparkinsider@gmail.com and I'll include them in our round-up of the day here on Theme Park Insider. I'd love to hear your reactions to the event! You can follow me on Twitter (@themepark) as I make my way through Disneyland tomorrow, too. I'll be using the #Disney24 hashtag. Place your bets now on how long I last.
