Hi All,

I was wondering if there were any Future World attrations that stay open past FW closing until World Showcase closing. In a few weeks we will be there and 7pm closing is hard to deal with.

Yes!Most of Future World remains open until 9:00 PM.I think they recently added The Living Seas to the remaining open list,but am not sure.Also open are Test Track,Mission:Space,Spaceship Earth and Soarin'. :) There may be other attractions open,but those are the ones I remember.Have fun! :)
 
Those attractions are open, along with some restaurants. We don't like FW at night though because it is not well lit.
 
I am happy to hear this. It will give some additional time to try and ride Soarin! :) I keep missing this ride each time I go to Epcot, and this time I really want to have the experience.
 

I've wondered why they always list the closing time for Future World as 7:00 pm, and the World Showcase as closing at 9:00 pm, with IllumiNations begining at 9:00 pm.

Since the attractions in Future World are running until at least 9:00, why not just list the closing time for both parts of Epcot as 9:00, even though it is usually difficult to exit the park from the main gate much before 10:00 if one stays to watch IllumiNations.

Not complaining mind you. I like the idea of having more time to enjoy Epcot.
 
While Soarin was still open after FW close time when we were there last week, there were no fast passes left after late afternoon, and at 7:00 there was a 90 minute wait for Soarin. Your best bet is to be there at opening and ride right away or get there before noon and get a fast pass. We usually arrive at opening, but that wasn't possible this time. We arrived around 11, headed right for Soarin and got FP for 1:30-2:30 (I thought that was lucky!). After we rode, the FP return time was 6:50.

From what I could see, the only things closed at 7 were Ellen's Universe of Energy, Imagination (including Honey I Shrunk the Audience), and Innoventions. It was a great time to ride Spaceship Earth...we walked right on (although as another poster said, it isn't well lit in the area) :)
 
So glad I read this thread...I assumed everything in FW was shut down at 7 pm. Nice to know we have the option of trying to catch an extra ride or two while waiting for Illuminations.
 
A few more questions on this topic.....is Living With the Land running after 7PM? How about Seasons, is that open? And Electric Umbrella?

Thanks! :)
