Let's talk ✨After Hours✨ at Walt Disney World!
This might be controversial for some but I prefer to knock a full park day off my schedule and instead opt for an After Hours ticket for that park!
✨Light crowds. This is the best part! Imagine riding your faves over and over – no long lines! For East and I, riding Slink 3 times in a row to close down the park was a Core Memory!
✨Extra Park Time: You can enter the park 2-3 hours before the official event start. This is a great time to eat dinner so you're not wasting peak ride time later.
✨Free Snacks & Drinks! Yep, you heard that right! Your ticket includes complimentary ice cream, popcorn, and bottled drinks. (If you're wondering how many Mickey bars I can eat in an After Hours it's 3 1/2.)
✨Super Chill Vibe: The parks just feel different when they're less crowded at night. It's quieter, the lights look extra magical, and it's just a really cool, relaxed atmosphere.
✨Awesome Photos: With fewer people around, you can snap some amazing, unobstructed photos in front of the castle or Spaceship Earth. Characters are always wandering around too.
✨Free Up Your Day: Spend it resting up for your late night, floating in the pool, shopping at Disney Springs or resort hopping!
Basically, if you're like me and want to prioritize getting the most of your favourite rides over seeing shows this might be something worth looking into!
⁉️Let me know if you have any questions, or if you've done an After Hours event before. I'd love to hear your thoughts!
