Epcot: it holds crowds the best, most places to drink, fireworks...MK too crowded, MGM too small/hard to find drinks, no fireworks, Same for AK

I agree 100%. Only MGM does have midnight fireworks - AK is the only park that doesn't.

Thanks Debi for the correction on MGM! ALways appreciated

I wonder if part of the reason AK was built so far from the rest of the parks was to isolate the animals from the fireworks noise...my dogs sure hate fireworks...

Plus remember these tips from the DIS:

If you plan on visiting a Walt Disney World Theme park on New Year's Eve, you should arrive in the morning and be prepared to spend the entire day. The parks will reach capacity with no further admittance allowed. Park Hopping on NYE is not recommended.

It's a common misconception that onsite guests are guaranteed admittance. While you can expect to get into a park, it may not be the park where you planned on celebrating the New Year. Note that having a Priority Seating does not mean that you will be allowed in should that park reach capacity.

For your comfort, arrive early and rent a locker. Should the weather be an issue, you can stow your warm clothes or raingear.

Fastpasses will be snapped up quickly. Get yours as soon as possible.
