Please. This is the Most Magical Place on Earth.

I would have thought they would have closed earlier on the 5th than at 10. For obvious reasons...

mattpetoOct 18, 2024

Oh yeah I agree. With the park closing at 6 pm, it doesn't feel like it's "Into the night" as much as the others.

Extended at DAK is very underrated. It’s probably the most beautiful park at night. It’s about the same as Epcot where half the rides/attractions are closed.

mattpetoOct 18, 2024

AK EEH for that week is 6 pm - 8 pm. That's brutal and skippable.
