Disney Media Event: Moana 2 + After Party!

I had the pleasure of being invited out by DISNEY.. *a legit pinch me moment when I saw the email come in*

We got a early access preview of the new Moana 2 movie and a Polynesian party after to celebrate the grand opening of the newest additon to the Disney’s Polynesian Resort opening in December.

I personally am a huge fan of Moana as well as my middle child who no joke made us watch it on repeat when he was two years old. I thought the second addition was tastefully done and not only did I laugh but I cried. I love how Disney animation always knows who to pull at your heart strings even as an adult. While the soundtrack to this movie is different I didn’t hate it. I just think the first movie had more catchy songs that got stuck in your head. But, different is bad - its just different. Overall, I really enjoyed it!

After the premiere we headed over to the House of Blues for the after party! The vibes were incredible and Disney knows how to party! My kids really enjoyed all of the fun photo opps and of course the dj!

This party was to celebrate the beautiful new island tower at the Polynesian Resort. This expansion will offer a luxurious take on the classic Polynesian theme and allow guests to take advantage of existing resort facilities. Subtle nods to “Moana” are incorporated into the room designs, offering combination of Polynesian influence and beloved characters (similar to what guests can experience at Aulani in Hawaii). Plus a life-size sculpture of Moana and her voyaging canoe were recently installed at the tower’s new water play area called “Moana’s Voyage.” Staying here is high on must do list. This property is set to open 12/17/2024!

As we danced the night away we enjoyed served Polynesian inspired bites. When the night ended we were treated to fun Moana goodie bags! I’m so happy that I got to be apart of this event and hope to attend many many more!

Thank you so much Disney to inviting my family out!
