    Join Dani and Britton from Just Off Harbor at a friend-filled weekend retreat in Anaheim! The Main Street Retreat was created to help like-minded Disney enthusiasts form new friendships and enjoy a “girls weekend“ style retreat at Disneyland. Our next event will be held from April 26-28th, 2025. Our goal is to help you leave the retreat with new lifelong friends and amazing memories. We hope you want to join us! MAIN STREET RETREAT ITINERARY: Saturday, April 26th: -Afternoon Check-In and Group Welcome (around 2PM) -Hosted “Retreat Kick Off Dinner” at Goofy’s Kitchen--come hungry! Get ready for an extra special Springtime Buffet! This meal typically includes a prime rib station, seafood cocktails, salmon and other special menu items. You can also expect rare characters in their Springtime best! (Details subject to Disney’s final announcements in the spring). -Evening Hot Tub/Pool Party at the Disneyland Hotel. Enjoy a night of fun and friends as we relax and enjoy each other’s company. Plan for a bit of an early night so we can wake up rested and take advantage of Early Entry the next morning! Sunday, April 27th: Reserve DCA as your starting park for Early Entry. -Join the group for early rides and plan to grab breakfast before the Main Street Race! -The first leg of the Main Street Race. Yes, you read that right--we have wanted to do a Double Park Race for a long time, and we are finally making it happen this year! Expect changes to the race like trivia questions, photo submissions, and a more detailed scorecard. To avoid the hottest part of the day, we will be doing a split race: We will race for a couple of hours in the morning at DCA, take a long break, and start up again in the evening at Disneyland! -After an afternoon break, we will have an optional dinner meet up before resuming the race. -Second leg of the Main Street Race (specific start time TBA) -Evening fireworks together. Monday, April 28th: Reserve DCA as your starting park for Early Entry. -Morning events will be scheduled as the Disney calendar becomes available. We are hoping for potential shows, parades, rides, etc. we can do as a group. -Announcement of Race Winners (Location TBD). -Goodbye Mixer with cocktails and snacks. (Location TBA) -Hop to Disneyland and close down the park as a group. (This final night has become our favorite retreat tradition. It is so magical to get to close out the parks with all of our new friends and say our last goodbyes!) INCLUDED IN YOUR TICKET: -Deeply discounted room rate at the Disneyland Hotel with the opportunity to connect with other retreat guests beforehand and find a roommate if desired. -Access to the Main Street Retreat Facebook page where you can meet and interact with other guests before the event via group chats. This is where we also communicate a lot of extra announcements before and during the retreat. -Hosted Springtime Buffet at Goofy’s Kitchen at the Disneyland Hotel. -Participation in the Main Street Race with the chance to win amazing prizes and giveaways. -Matching Shirts! In previous years we’ve offered retreat jerseys as an optional purchase, but this year we are including matching shirts (style TBD) for everyone as part of your ticket. (We will ask for sizing details for everyone after the guest list has been finalized.) -Special gifts for all attendees -Closing social with snacks and a cocktail/mocktail of your choice. -Meet ups, group events, and socializing throughout the weekend. -Unforgettable memories and the chance to make lifelong friends! Ticket Cost: $295 per person. We ask that guests be over 18 years of age. Hotel: This year we have an amazing group rate at the Disneyland Hotel! The cost is $395 a night + taxes and fees. If you would like to find roommates, you may message the group on Facebook to arrange that on your own. A down payment of one room night is required at booking, the rest will be paid on site when you check in. Room availability is limited!
