Disney After Hours is a fun ticketed event that Disney holds at different parks on select nights. The number of tickets sold are very limited, so crowds are low and there are no wait times.
The two Disney After Hours I attended were great. We were able to ride so many rides, because they were all walk on. At the Magic Kingdom After Hours we rode Seven Dwarfs Mine Train three times within 30 minutes, so that gives you an idea on the crowd size. Along with the low crowds, guests also get ice cream novelties, popcorn, and bottled drinks (soda and water) for free. The complimentary drinks and food can be found at snack carts scattered throughout the parks.

I love all things Disney, but my main love is for Disney World and I'm always planning for the next trip. Before becoming a Disney blogger, I was a radio DJ, so I guess I'm just continuing in the communication industry, just in a different form. I love talking Disney and I could talk about Disney all day. That's why I started blogging and created the Facebook group. The Disney community is full of friendly, helpful, and happy people...and I love being a part of it! If there is any Disney subject you would like to see covered just let me know! Need help planning your Disney vacation. Feel free to contact myself or Melissa at Never Stop Dreaming Travel Co. We love helping people plan their trips! Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy! Don't forget to check out our Countdown to Disney app! Feel free to email me with suggestions of things you would like to see in the app :-)
