  • We're sharing our best tips for making the most of After Hours at Magic Kingdom and seeing what's new for 2024. For the first time ever, guests at this specially ticketed Disney World event can ride TRON Lightcycle/Run without having to book a Virtual Boarding Group - and they can ride as many times as they want! Plus, you can see two different fireworks shows in one night. And did we mention that the lines for most attractions are non-existent? Add in popcorn, sodas and frozen treats at no extra charge and you've got a fun-filled night at the most magical place on Earth!

    We did MK After Hours last year and it was such a great way to get all the rides done during a very busy week! I love Disney World, but large crowds can be very over stimulating for me sometimes. Being there for AH and the low crowds was amazing! Worth every penny!

    Your After Hours video for MK last year convinced us to try it for the very first time last week, and we had an absolute blast!! Very similar itinerary and experience as yours in this video. One thing we had to add was food when we first got there at 7pm....we had been in AK all day and didn't want to waste park time there with eating dinner (it was our first trip there!), so we hopped on the bus to MK (yea for dropoff at front door:)) and grabbed a very quick bite at Cosmic Ray's b4 hitting the rides. Love your channel!!!

      Go Team PeopleMover! 🙌 I think for me, it is because when we moved to Orlando, it was right after the 50th Celebration started, so that was the show we saw every night and we fell in love with it. Same with Harmonious at Epcot. I don’t know if anything will ever beat those shows for us because we have so many memories tied to them now. I actually think that is the reason most people prefer HEA - because of their memories that are tied to that show. 🙂

      They ask all day guests to leave, unfortunately. If you stayed in the hub, you would risk getting trespassed from the park, so I would not recommend it. I'd recommend watching from one of the nearby resorts, though. It's not the same, but at least you would get part of the experience.

      Yea my wife and I were disappointed with Tron. It's fun but way too quick for the wait time and locker hassle
