Once Upon A Time, April, 10pm?

Loyalblue · 18 Feb 19, 11:24 AM

Hi All,

Doing some planning for MK.

Happily Ever After fireworks at 9:15pm...

and then Once Upon a Time at 10:00?

Just wondering if it's worth doing both?

Although a little confused by the time of 10pm on the disney website.. disneyworld.disney.go.com

As it also says the Park closes at 10pm.

Any advice?
Thanks

The fireworks are always at closing time. That's just the time when the rides stop, it doesn't mean the park is emptied.

Yes, it's worth doing both, in fact I think I preferred the second one. It's a little projection and story on the castle, and lots of people leave so it's much less crowded.

I would stay for OUAT simply because the masses are all exiting the park immediately after HEA finishes - many aren't even aware the second show exists. It's a much more pleasant experience waiting a bit longer and you get a bonus show out of it.

As Bev says, completely normal for a show to begin at closing time. Epcot does this every night with Illuminations. They don't really start sweeping guests out of the park until at least an hour after close, although you won't be able to join any ride queues after the official closing time.

Definitely worth staying, good show and you can watch in front of the castle as so many people leave, we�ve been able to watch it sat down with a perfect view before.

We are there from the 6th April but it doesn't look as though Once Upon A Time is on during our two weeks.🤔

It will be. It just isn't on the schedule yet. They only add it a few months out.
