Disney Springs

[Disnerd6838]

On our Epcot night after Illuminations, we are planning to travel to Disney Springs because Epcot closes after the show. What is the quickest way to get there? Is there a bus that travels directly from Epcot?

Yes there are buses that go directly from the parks to Disney Springs, they start running after 4pm and only go one way, meaning you won't be able to bus from DS to Epcot

Even after close? How late do they run

Just wondering 'out loud' ...

If after the show, you are closer to the International Gateway entrance - is it easier not to bump elbows with the crowds (and avoid the time consuming walk) to get to the main entrance, but rather take the back way out of the park and walk to the Boardwalk Inn and take the bus to Disney Springs from there?

Downside - buses from resorts to DS can be very hit or miss

Even after close? How late do they run

buses usually run about an hour to an hour and a half after park closing.

Even after close? How late do they run

Buses continue to operate until the park is officially clear of all guests. That can be an hour at a certain park or over two hours at another park. It varies with the time of year as well. If you're still in the park, there will be a bus waiting for you.
