If you’ve ever dreamed of having Walt Disney World almost all to yourself, Disney After Hours events are your golden ticket. These special ticketed evenings offer limited crowds, extended ride times, and a completely different vibe after the parks close to regular guests.
What is Disney After Hours?
Disney After Hours events give you exclusive access to select Walt Disney World parks for a few magical hours after regular closing time. With smaller crowds and longer ride availability, these nights are perfect for maximizing your time on your favorite attractions.
2026 Disney After Hours Dates & Locations
Disney has released the 2026 schedule for After Hours events at Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, and more. Whether you want to ride Big Thunder Mountain with almost no wait or enjoy Space Ranger Spin under the stars, these events are a fantastic way to experience the parks differently.
Tips for Making the Most of Your Night
Planning ahead is key. Arrive early, prioritize your must-do attractions, and take advantage of the lower crowds to enjoy character meets and photos you might normally skip during the day. These events sell out, so booking early is highly recommended.
