Epcot for night EMH

[Letsbgoofy]

We have always been the people who avoid the EMH park, but we are meeting up with my brother and his family and will only have 1 day at each park with them. I'm wondering what Epcot night EMHs are like? This will be on a Tuesday the 2nd week of September, crowds are supposed to be "very light". Is FEA open? What else is operating for EMH?

Yes, FEA will be open! The only ride I can think of that isn't open during EMH is Ellen's Energy Adventure. Most of the movies within the World Showcase are closed during EMH (except America and Canada movies). The lines can be long during EMH since EPCOT doesn't have a lot of thrill rides, people all want to go on the few that are there. But if the crowds aren't supposed to be that bad, it might not be too bad of lines.

I wouldn't count on mid-September being "very light", fyi. It's a popular month and the Halloween parties will be running by then, which helps draw more guests to WDW. 5 years ago mid-September had reliably light crowds, but not anymore. Just a heads-up. Have a great trip!

The last few times I've attended evening EMH at EP, the first hour following Illuminations held the crowds, but they dwindled down considerably in the last hour.

I agree FEA Will be open. BUT, and I don't know the list so I apologize in advance, lots of Future World attractions will be closed. There is another current thread now discussing these.

We spent EMH at Epcot the first week of April. We had already done Future World earlier in the week so we leisurely strolled around world showcase. Many of the shops, etc was closed but there was hardly another soul in sight and we had an excellent time taking pictures and enjoying. We started in Canada and got to Norway right before close, hopped on FEA with a 15ish min wait!

Thanks for all the replies and information. I'm rethinking my plans...
