Walt Disney World has extended its Disney After Hours events into the summer. These events have been extended through August 2024 at Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, and Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
These after hours events allow guests to experience these parks with less people by attending these special ticketed events that have fewer people in the parks. Because of this, guests can general experience more attractions and other offerings during the three-hours they get during the events. There are some perks that Disney shares for those attending Disney After Hours events. They include:
- Lower Wait Times for Attractions
This event lets a limited number of Guests explore the park after it closes, offering shorter wait times at some favorite attractions. - Snag Some Snacks
Delight in select ice cream novelties, popcorn and beverages—all included in the cost of this ticketed event—available at carts stationed throughout the park.
