Who knew that MMOs could be so squeaky clean and wholesome?

Kids and their parents are gathering their gags, gassing up their Toon's go-karts, and prepping their character costumes for ToonFest 2006, the first official fan fest dedicated to Disney Online's family-friendly game, Disney's Toontown Online. Thousands of fans, among them Kyle Massey of That's So Raven and the upcoming show, Cory in the House, will gather at an event at the Walt Disney Studios on Saturday, August 26, 2006, to play Disney's Toontown Online and take part in a host of themed activities and competitions.

Designed specifically for kids and families, the MMO is filled with nonstop play, ever-changing adventure and kiddie fun. It is a vast online world where you live life as a cartoon character. Players can create their own Toon, furnish an estate, customize a race kart, train a pet Doodle, and team up with friends to defeat the invading robot Cogs. With an arsenal of gags to add to the fun, the Toontown experience is always growing, always changing, and as wild as the imagination.

At ToonFest 2006, fans will take part in activities and competitions throughout the day including an in-game scavenger hunt,  carnival games such as Pin the Tail on the Doodle, a costume parade and contest, Q&A panels with the game's developers, and a sneak peek at future game expansions and features. Fans at home will be able to participate in the in-game scavenger hunt, as well.
