We’re still missing a few special events in Disney World, but it’s finally been announced that After Hours events are going to return to the parks soon! Find out when they’ll return and how much they’ll cost here.

Disney announced that After Hours events will return to Disney World beginning in January 2023. They’ll kick off on January 4th in Disney’s Hollywood Studios and on January 9th in Magic Kingdom.

After Hours events are separately ticketed parties where you can stay in the Disney theme parks for 3 hours after the park closes. There are specialty treats and drinks included in your ticket. And because the number of tickets sold for the parties is limited, you can often find lower wait times than usual on the rides and attractions.

At the Magic Kingdom events, over 20 attractions will stay open for the event, including Haunted Mansion, Jungle Cruise, Pirates of the Caribbean, Space Mountain, and Seven Dwarfs Mine Train.

At Hollywood Studios, the attractions that will remain open include Millennium Falcon: Smuggler’s Run, Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway, Toy Story Land rides, and more.

Guests with an After Hours ticket can enter the park as early as 7PM and stay 3 hours after closing time. For Magic Kingdom events, the party lasts from 10PM to 1AM; at Hollywood Studios events, the party is from 9:30PM to 12:30AM.

In 2023, the tickets will range in price from $129 to $159 per person. Tickets will become available for all guests to purchase on October 7th, 2022, but guests staying at Disney World hotels during the After Hours events can start buying tickets on October 4th, 2022.
