AK Moonlight Madness worth it?

[DisneyHumbug]

Finalizing our plans for January and we’re wondering if the AK MM is worth it? Since there’s so few rides will the lines be ridiculously long? Does anyone have any experience with this? We would get there early in order to do safari but…..

We have done it and found the lines great once the event is in full swing and the day crowds were gone.

I have read some have just walked on FOP.

Being able to experience Pandora after dark again was worth it to me. As for ride times, we walked on Everest two times in a row. That ride is so much better after dark! It's an entirely different experience. Navi went down unfortunately and of course that made FOP more crowded. Though we still only waited maybe 20 minutes or so. It was fun to go through the full queue again, because if we ride that we usually buy the LL. Dinosaur was a walk on, though my husband can't ride that due to his back so I skipped it. This was just before Zootopia opened so that wasn't an option.

All that said, we did not stay the entire time as there weren't enough rides open. We still had fun and enjoyed a snack at Pongu Pongu. It was our first Moonlight Magic event and we quite enjoyed it. I'm really hoping to get tickets to the HS one during our spring trip.

The entire AK is best after dark except of course the safari.

I understand closing earlier due to the animals.

It's another reason why I like the winter months with early sunsets.

It's free so definitely worth it

I love riding Everest and being able to look up at the stars. The lines are minimal. Free snacks, etc. You really have nothing to lose by going!
