Additional Disney After Hours Dates for 2024 Added
By Rikki
It’s one of the best kept secrets of Walt Disney World – the Disney After Hours special ticketed events. They happen throughout the year at different times on select nights and take place at EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Magic Kingdom. (Usually.)
Disney After Hours last for three hours on select nights. The event allows Guests to enjoy exclusive time in the park with quicker than typical access to most popular attractions. There are also other activities available like character greetings too! All experiences are with minimal waits.
Disney has officially released more dates for this year’s Disney After Hours events across the board at these three parks. Here’s when this fantastic event will take place throughout the year, as well as what this event entails at each park.
