Getting into Epcot

[tarheelmjfan]

Will we be able to get into Epcot at 11:30 am on NYE? I want to arrive as late as possible, since everyone has me afraid to leave mid-day, then return. By the way, we still haven't been able to get into FW, so we will be staying off-site. Thanks for the info.

I know that I've asked waaay too many NYE questions, but could someone please help me out with this one (yeah right ) more question? Thanks

I have to tell you that my mom goes to EPCOT every year for New Years and never has a problem getting in the parks later in the day. She usually does another park in the A.M. and then lounges around the hotel and then off to EPCOT. She's never had a problem, except for the Millenium which was a process. But since then she hasn't had any issues.

You should have no problem getting into Epcot.

You could probably get in but I am not sure what you will be able to do. We have been in Epcot every NYE for the past 4 years and while it is wonderful - it is packed. If you are planning on watching IllumiNations and the NYE fireworks - I don't know how close you will be to the action. We usually stake out our place at least 2 hours prior to midnight - we like being up close to the lake. The park is so crowded it will take you a while to get through Future World - although that section might not be too bad since everyone will be around the lake wating for the fireworks. I think it really depends on what you want to do.
