We all know and remember how exciting the past games have been. In 2006 with all the Wildcats, in 2007 sans two Wildcats and this year - without all of them! Gasp! What will we do!? Well, we’ll still watch. Why? Hello - BRENDA! And not to mention a few of our other new friends around the VABN-world. So who’s exactly playing and how can you get tickets to see the concerts?

Miley Cyrus is also said to participate, but the above list is the one up to date and confirmed from Disney. There will also be DC stars from other countries as well like Australia, Brazil, France, Germany, Singapore, Taiwan, the U.K. and Japan. The games will be played from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. on April 28, April 29 and May 1 at Disney’s Wide World of Sports at the Walt Disney World Resort. The schedule for May 2 is still to be determined. The Charities being benefited are the same: Boys & Girls Club, UNICEF, Make-A-Wish and Starlight Starbright.

“We’re inviting people to come and watch, but it’s a working production,” said Adam Sanderson, senior vice president of brand marketing for the Disney ABC Networks Group. “It’s not staged as a sporting event.”

He said there will be “plenty of seating” in the grandstand.

“We can’t have regular kids on the field,” Sandeson said. “The talent will be walking around, playing the games. I think we’ll have some video screens again. They’ll be able to see the talent, and the talent often comes over and signs autographs and takes photos.”

The concerts for May 3rd - The Cheetah Girls (I would bank on spying two boyfriends amongst the crowd as well) and The Jonas Brothers - are sold out though.
