What does everyone think of Disney After Hours

[eagle1992]

Depends when you go and the hours. I'm doing DAH on April 11th and the park closes at 10pm that day so DAH is until 1am however you get in at 7pm so I will get 6 hrs in the park. I will say that it is kind of expensive but since it will just me I didn't mind and I also used my AP discount so it was only $95 instead of $125.

We are there that week and also doing the MK one on 4/11. Also doing the DHS one on April 6th...

Here's my personal opinion on these...I think it's a great way to compliment a trip so that one is not stressing over doing rides during the day and jamming that in...Disney is much more than just the rides but it is hard to have that mentality when one has to have a strategy akin to solving a Geometry puzzle using the Pythagorean theorem.

I look at it in that it allows me and my family to have more down time and flexibility during our trip knowing that we can hit all the major headliners at these parks without sacrificing tons of time or ability to enjoy all the other things Disney has to offer and still be able to make it into a "vacation".

It comes at a cost...sure...but we are at lifestage where we will gladly spend on things like this than say on character breakfasts and meals or things like that...

I’m going to my first DAH at MK on 4/4 and I’m super excited. It’s our last day, and we always spend our last day in MK for as long as possible so I think it’s a great way to end the trip. The short waits for rides will be awesome, and I intend to go to town on the popcorn lol, but I’m really looking forward to enjoying the more relaxed atmosphere. It’ll be a nice way to enjoy our last night.

It’s a splurge, sure, but at the end if the day it doesn’t break us and it’s a new way to experience Disney, which I’m always looking for.

We are doing all 3 next week if that tells you anything. We’ve done the mk one two times before. Hs and ak will be new so we’ll see how those go

Please come back and let us know how you liked it. I plan on doing the same in April.

I really enjoyed DAH in MK last September. It was so nice to get on the rides without the crowds. The popcorn & ice cream were a very nice bonus too. My only regret was not taking a rest before the event started because we had been at parks since rope drop & we were pretty tired not even halfway through the event. I won’t make that same mistake again!

I’ll post my reviews on all three of the dah threads. I probably won’t post anything here though

I’ve been thinking about how it would be to do an all DAH trip. One night at each park that offers it over a weeks time. I wonder if that could ever work out for us.

 

[AliceAnn]

We LOVED it.

 

[mamamelody2]

I have already decided if it is offered during our September trip, we're doing it for sure!

 

[dznycrzy]

Love it! Most rides are a walk on and it’s fun to be in the park without crowds.

Plus, all the Mickey bars and popcorn you can eat!

Oh yeah!

We have done two at MK, doing a 3rd next Monday. These wait times (8:40 tonight) make it worth it. PLUS navigating the park with no crowds is such a nice bonus.

I don’t think it’s worth full price, but I do think it’s worth the AP price

 

[Remy is Up]

Well worth it. Have done ak and mk this week and it's worth the AP price.

 

[Haley R]

I don’t think it’s worth full price, but I do think it’s worth the AP price

We don’t have APs so we bite the bullet and pay full price

 

[Elle23]

DAH at MK was the most fun I have had at WDW, by far. Worth every (full price) penny, and I would do it again in a heartbeat.

For the DAH at HS is it only the TSL rides like the the morning event?

Ok thank you. Hopefully they will have it available in September. Right now they only have it on Apr 6 and 13th, I arrive the 7th and leave the 13th. HS is my favourite park so I would love to do the DAH there. Right now I do have a ticket for MK on Apr 11th.

So close! I've wanted to try the EMM at MK and I always miss that by a day or so! We did this event last week and it was a lot of fun, hope it works out for you in September!

Thanks I will check out those.
