Epcot on new Year's Eve

[kangaand2roos]

We will be going to Epcot at rope drop and leaving mid afternoon. I am thinking about returning that evening just watch IllumiNations. What is the chance of the park closing due to capacity for onsite guests? And if we don't return until about 7:30, will we be able to get a reasonable viewing area for IROA? Showtime that night is 9:30. I've done NYE. Will the crowds be comparable?
