Over this weekend I noticed the whole area at the end of Main St blocked off to construct the Mary Poppins Bakery which shuts off access to the food tables where Sunday traders usually are. And now tables have been taken away from LGMSC in Tommorrowland! Where do you Sunday traders go?
 
What about the place they set aside for us in DCA? Across from soarin?

On sunday when we walked to soarin....there was no less than 12 CMs all along the walk way going to that part of the park... not many good pins at 7 at night..but i bet they had sum good stuff be4.. still no 2nd wave of hm pins yet....i was looking
 
You know been thinking what's wrong the plaza garden to the left of the castle nice spot for it well IMO,

I was thinking the same thing. If people take over the tables at FrontierLand I will not be happy. That area is bad enough as it is no need for more people. Just dump all of the traders from Main Street by the castle.
 
Boy, the tables at Westward Ho are going to be mighty crowded now!

I agree. The last time I was there there were two people per table and then at 1 when the cast members came out those four people had to leave the tables so that meant till the cast members left they were displaced and had to wait around.
 
I am not in the park often enough to be effected by the closure, however, over the weekend when I saw that the pavillion was closed, I thought to myself... Where will all the traders go now? Westward Ho is crowded enough already. I think the suggestion of the area to the left of the castle is a good one. Plus it is off the path of many people but close enough to the Ho that one could migrate back and forth.
 
I've never traded at the parks, but I would think that y'all would all want to be together in one area, so that everyone knows what everyone else has available. Is this not true?
 
Yes, the traders who normally meet on Sundays at the end of Main St. will now meet next to the Castle at those tables near Plaza Gardens. Please pass the word and hope to see you there!
 
Just an FYI, at the D23 Expo they mentioned that they are turning the Plaza Gardens area into a new Fantasy Faire princess meet & greet area (but they'll keep the swing dancing in the evenings). But depending on when they start construction for that, then pin traders will have to find another new spot. No dates were announced, so you'd be good for awhile.
