Walt Disney World recently announced a new after-hours event at Epcot that allows guests to experience the park’s attractions and entertainment once the regular crowds have left. The response from Disney enthusiasts has been enormous, with the inaugural event on July 27 selling out entirely – a historic first for an after-hours offering.
Epcot After Hours promises guests the chance to enjoy shortened wait times at popular rides, unique entertainment, and plenty of snacks, all while exploring the park’s diverse country pavilions under the night sky. For many Disney fans, it’s a dream come true.
The overwhelming demand caught Disney off guard, with July 27 tickets vanishing almost as soon as they went on sale. “We’re thrilled by the phenomenal response,” said a Disney spokesperson. “Guests are eager for new and immersive Epcot experiences, and we’re working to deliver.”
While the earliest event is no longer available, plenty of Epcot After Hours dates remain in August and into the fall. Disney experts recommend booking as soon as possible, as other nights seem likely to sell out quickly.
The sellout suggests Walt Disney World has a hit on its hands with Epcot After Hours. As the company continues to invest in new attractions and entertainment at the venerable park, special events draw fans eager to be among the first to see Epcot’s ongoing transformation.
Disney is sure to closely watch guest feedback on the After Hours experience itself. If the concept proves popular, similar exclusive events could spread to other Walt Disney World theme parks – and continue Epcot’s evolution into a can’t-miss vacation destination.
