i feel like this may be a dumb question but why is carnation closing?

According to an article I read today, the stage will remain for use for weekend swing dancing, just as it's used for now.  The canopy and surrounding area will be transformed into a medieval look to accompany the new Princess Fantasy Faire.  In the back, where the tables are set up, between the castle and the walkway to Rancho del Zocalo, a new building will emerge, which spilts into two identical hallways (also medieval themed).  The two walkways/wooden bridge from the castle will be widened to allow for the back-and-forth queue for guests waiting to enter the two halls.  The article also said that the two hallways will each contain the same princesses (for example, to the left, Cinderella, Snow White, and Rapunzle, and to the right, Cinderella, Snow White and Rapunzle...to speed guests through).  This is supposed to cut the wait time down to half of those experienced now at the current Princess Fantasy Faire.  Additionally, the theater now used for the PFF will debut a stage production starring the Fab Five, which makes sense, seeing how close to Toon Town it is. - susieQzee  480.6 #246 10:04PM
P.S. The Imagineers' renderings that accompanied the article look prety cool! I don't think the transformation is going to be as bad as expected. - susieQzee  480.6 #246 10:06PM
Wait..there's going to be 2 of the same princess?!? - BaseballMickey_CM  2821.8 #16 10:08PM

Yes, Kevin. Double princesses! Princess Bizarro World! - susieQzee  480.6 #246 10:21PM
Are u serious a fab five meet n greet?😔 can't they just leave the princesses there and keep cpg and all the memories?😁 - princessVanessa  382.5 #351 10:22PM
No, not a Fab Five meet and greet. A stage show starring the Fab Five. - susieQzee  480.6 #246 10:25PM
Oh ok - princessVanessa  382.5 #351 10:28PM
Sorry for my lack of knowledge but who are the Fab Five? I know who the Fab Four are though... - Ain1derland  325.5 #498 11:28PM
Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and Pluto - susieQzee  480.6 #246 11:44PM
I thought it was 2 princesses per spot meaning 2 different princesses next to each other per photo stop - cesium55  529.7 #216 12:58AM
A new princess meet and greet. I love Disney but it seems like their interests are only in entertaining the children. It's not bad but what about Walt's dreams of Disneyland being a place where not only kids can enjoy it but the adults as well? The Carnation Gardens Plaza is enjoyed by both parents and kids as well. I really do think they should keep things the way they are but then there's Walt's other dream of ever growing change in Disneyland. We must honor that wish as well. We all can't be satisfied in this world sadly. So to answer your question, they are making it into the new Princess Faire. - Ain1derland  325.5 #498 11:06PM
I still want to know whats wrong with the current Fantasy Faire area that they are tearing down CPG for this one.... - shadowgamer  1954.3 #37 11:13PM
(sigh) It isn't being torn down, just re-themed. - susieQzee  480.6 #246 11:19PM
Yup. If it were me, I'd make a new attraction in that area. - Ain1derland  325.5 #498 11:23PM
I have a question if the swing dancing is staying and they are just adding some stuff why is it so sad?? i know people might hate me for asking but if the dancing is staying why is it so bad?? - Timechaser_cm  262.4 #891 12:52AM
I feel the same way. Everyone seems to be sad because they think the stage and dancing is leaving... but it's not... - Jaytasmic  373.3 #367 1:07AM
I'll text or DM the link to you, if you'd like.  Admin frowns upon posting links that take his visitors away from MW (understandably so, too!).  Do you have your text set up, or should I DM you? - susieQzee  480.6 #246 10:21PM
Kevin, I DM'd you. See if it went through. - susieQzee  480.6 #246 10:25PM
honestly i am new to mouse wait so i dont know how to do either of those - silvermist1  5.5 #9761 10:26PM
Oh, sorry. I hadn't noticed your MW points (welcome, by the way!). In that case, I can't send you directly to the link, but Google may be a good source for you to search (hint hint). :) - susieQzee  480.6 #246 10:36PM
thank you! :) - silvermist1  5.5 #9761 10:41PM
