I got tickets to this months ago and I'm going alone but disappointed it's at a huge place with lots of traffic congestion and not the original place in Watertown CT. Part of me hates driving in cities like Hartford so much I want to not go but then I don't want to miss seeing the remaining stars of the show.
I heard they are having a lot of guest stars like "Chris" Gil Gerard, and others like Todd.

Little House on the Prairie 50th Anniversary Events


Start your day with a dash of nostalgia! Join us on September 3rd at 8 AM for an exclusive Breakfast with the Cast of Little House on the Prairie.

Share a morning filled with stories, laughter, and memories with Alison Arngrim, Charlotte Stewart, and Dean Butler.

This intimate gathering at the Farm & Home Center in Lancaster, PA, is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to connect with the stars who brought Walnut Grove to life. Seats are limited, so don’t wait—grab your tickets now and make your morning one to remember!

Sadly the cast had to end the LHOP events for now. The experience in CT and PA weren't good and Alison got sick also. They were extremely unorganized and lines were many hours long, 4 or more for many. Some couldn't see anyone and some like me ignoring time arrival by 1/2 an hour got to see 2 but I came at9 and left at 4. No food although they had 1 truck in parking lot, just standing.I hope they find a better vendor in the future.

Dean still has book signings and is hoping to see fans at those sites and he posts on various FB/Instagram and other social media sites, his whereabouts. Alison is almost 100%, PTSD she said and virus. She has her comedy show and don't know if that will be this year or not. I know a Simi Valley event she told a fan is still on, not being part of this organizer.
Sadly, they made a good call, I complained along with tons of fans on FB but the organizer was taking them down but it didn't change the outcome. I felt vindicated because I thought the cast was suffering too and look exhausted. I hope for better events in the future

I'm sure there are more companies out there besides Mr. Bishop's Gravel Road Market that will come along and pick up the slack on this. I know the cast will be more aware of things and make sure to choose wisely. So sad it happened this way. Praying for the best outcome!

Unfortunately the CT (where I went) and PA event that caused the cast to break from Jack Bishop's company is still going on. Dean Butler wrote another post that fans are going to canceled events and weren't told. Online it says "sold out" instead of canceled. Granted the stars did their best on social media to tell them but if you don't use FB or like their pages or go on forums that fans posted the news on, you were out of luck.
It's on a few sites but Dean Butler on FB has the full statement in 2 parts.

I enjoyed seeing these. I'm glad Jonathon Gilbert is participating in some of these events.

I'm glad he joined in as well...I'm sure he had some apprehensions but realized he was fully welcome to be there from the other cast members!
