ABC Super Soap Weekend

ABC Super Soap Weekend (1996 - 2008) is an event, organized in conjunction with Disney and ABC to bring soap opera actors from the various ABC shows to visit and mingle with their fans.

The first ABC Super Soap Weekend was organized and held at Disney's Hollywood Studios near Orlando in 1996. The event is traditionally held around Veterans Day weekend each year. In addition, a summertime Super Soap Weekend has been held in more recent years at Disney's California Adventure on the West Coast in 2002 & 2003.

The 13th Annual & FINAL ABC Super Soap Weekend will take place November 15th, 2008 & November 16th, 2008. A new event titled "Soap Nation" will begin in 2009 and will feature many events across the country that allow you to meet your favorite actors and actresses.
