The increasingly-popular Disney After Hours is back & better than ever at Walt Disney World in 2025, and we now have a look at the exact dates for each park for this special late-night event. Disney After Hours is a separately-ticketed, late-night event hosted at a specific theme park after the park has officially closed to normal guests for the day. As of now, there are three Walt Disney World parks with After Hours planned for 2025: Magic Kingdom Park, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and EPCOT! In general, each After Hours event begins at 7 p.m. and continues until three hours after normal park close. Some of the biggest highlights of a Disney After Hours event are:
- Shorter wait times for major attractions
- Standby queue offering for attractions normally offered via Virtual Queue only (TRON Lightcycle Run, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, etc.)
- Unlimited complimentary snacks such as ice cream, popcorn, and select drinks
- Shorter wait times for popular character meet & greet experiences
