It’s been a YEAR in Disney World. Let’s just say keeping up with all the changes (and those to come) has been a challenge.
We’ve literally watched part of DinoLand, U.S.A. in Disney’s Animal Kingdom get shut down to make way for a new land. We’ve seen the end of It’s Tough To Be A Bug so that a new Zootopia-themed show can take over its spot. We’ve mourned the upcoming loss of Muppets Courtyard as it gets converted into a Monsters, Inc. land. Over in Magic Kingdom, we’re a little upset about the upcoming loss of Rivers of America and Tom Sawyer Island for a Cars expansion. But something else is changing soon in Magic Kingdom, too: nighttime entertainment.
The Happily Ever After fireworks show that happens every night in Magic Kingdom will be changing soon. Previously, the show was moved from 8 PM to 8:30 PM, but on March 30th, the show will be moving even later, from 8:30 PM to 9 PM. So that’s a whole other half hour you’ll have to wait to catch the show. Of course, this has to do with the fact that the days are getting longer and it’s getting darker in the parks later. Welcome, spring!
If you want to make sure to get a good spot for the fireworks, you should do so early or take advantage of the Happily Ever After fireworks dessert party, which gets you a buffet of snacks and sweet treats, as well as reserved viewing areas for the show. The dessert party can be pricey, but if you want a PRIME view of fireworks without having to stake out a spot super early, it could be worth it for you and your group, especially if you love sweets.
