I've been reading about the Early Morning Magic in Fantasyland and the After Hours Special event at Magic Kingdom. Both sound amazing!!! Does Disney only offer these special events during the "slow" times of year or is there a chance they could be offered in June 2018? Does anyone know if these were offered last June??
For DAH, in 2017 it was offered on just a few dates Jan-early March. The same has been announced for 2018 as well. I ‘doubt’ you’ll see it expanded to other dates, the event tends to fit better at times when the MK naturally has early closings (like Jan-Feb).
For EMM, it has been offered on a ‘relatively’ consistent basis since it was introducted in April 2016, although it goes through phases. Sometimes two times a week, sometimes once, sometimes not at all (eg, there are none being offered Nov-Dec this year but then it starts again in Jan). You don’t see EMM offered during busy park times, holidays, or times where pre-9AM openings are likely.
For June 2016, EMM was offered on 8 dates (all Sundays and Tuesdays). For June 2017, EMM was offered on only 3 dates (all Sundays) 6/11, 6/18, & 6/25.
Who knows what’s in store for June 2018, although I’d bet there will definitely be at least some dates with EMM offered. (ETA: Don’t come back and yell at me if I’m wrong though!)
Hope that helps.
