More bands set for Walt Disney World's spring concert series

I'll be down for the Disney "marathon" In April. Are there any specifics for the venue and location they use for this? I was planning on getting the universal annual pass in hopes of getting a single day epic universe ticket. I'd rather see the concert and hope for the best on the single ticket.

The venue is across the pathway from American Adventure and is a pretty large covered amphitheater (close to 2k seats). Disney does typically sell dining packages that allow guests exclusive seating in the theater if you don't want to queue up an hour or more in advance, but most of the capacity is first come first serve, meaning that the lines to get in and claim a seat are typically based on the popularity of the act. The one good thing is that most artists will perform twice each day, so if you don't get in line early enough to see the first performance, you can try again for the second performance. Also, if you miss out on getting a seat, you can always stand along the pathway or sit in the American Adventure courtyard and hear the show - when there used to be a guest lounge on the 2nd floor of the pavilion, we once listened to the Pointer Sisters during their Eat to the Beat (Food and Wine Festival) set and could clearly hear them even with the windows closed.

I would not expect Epic Universe to be open in early April during Disney's marathon week. If the new theme park is doing soft opens during that time period, I would expect them to be extremely limited to team members, media/enthusiasts, and select pass holders (high level and long-time holders). Plus, I just don't think Universal is going to do any official soft opens until after the Spring Break period (Easter is Sunday April 20) so staff can focus on the higher crowd levels at the existing parks.

Thanks for the info. I think my race day is sorted now. Train listening to Sugar Ray. Run listening to Sugar Ray. Post-dinner meal listening to Sugar Ray. Typhoon Lagoon for the after race party (where Sugar Ray is probably in heavy rotation anyway). Thanks for the details. Pockets of the internet mean so much to me!!

As far as Epic goes i was going to get the universal season pass (despite being bored of US/IOA) because it is a 5 day weekend im trying to fill with activities for me and being on that email list is crucial. I doubt they do anything so early in April. Plus even if they did, not seeing 100% of the park and vtubers manifesting abundance would annoy me.

Im planning to go back for Epic Universe in mid-June. I may stay at Terra Nova when i go down this time just to map out logistics, walking paths, and other annoyances that hamper a first time visit.
