Yes, they start at 7:45, then every 15-20 minutes or so they do a quick little "show". About a minute of music with projections over the icon (Epcot's was a little longer). But the lights stay on constantly.
We arrive next Friday 10/29 and some of the days we are there, AK closes at 7:00. Will the Beacons of Light be shown on the nights they close at 7:00?
I looked up sunset/twilight end times for 11/1 and 11/2 seem to be around 6:40 p.m. sunset and 7:03 p.m. twilight ends/dark.
