We’re doing Disney World a little DIFFERENTLY today. We talk about Magic Kingdom a LOT around here, but it’s not too often we find ourselves in the park for exclusive hard-ticket events, like Disney After Hours. But like we said, today is SPECIAL! We’re at the FIRST 2024 Magic Kingdom After Hours event, and we’re taking YOU along for the ride!
During an After Hours event, you can check out 20+ Magic Kingdom attractions without the lines! This exclusive event is offered on select nights from January 11th through April 8th, 2024. So, what’s included in the price of a ticket? Come with us to find out!
Magic Kingdom After Hours tickets range in price and vary by date. The price varies from $155 to $175 (plus tax). If you’re a Disney World Annual Passholder or a Disney Vacation Club Member, you’re eligible for discounts. Check the calendar to see the available discounts!
