I've been at Disney since Sunday morning! I'm running out of things to do (is this crazy)? I'm on a solo trip. The first day I did Epcot and Magic Kingdom. Yesterday I did animal kingdom, Hollywood studios, swam at my resort, back to Hollywood studios, then Magic Kingdom. Today I did magic kingdom but the days only halfway over, so I need something to do this evening.

what's at Disney springs? Anything worth checking out? I've already gotten pictures with 24 characters in the 2.5 days (I get so much done solo!) but need ideas for the evening.
 
There's a lot to do at Disney springs....shopping, dining, clubs, cirque de soleil if you can get tickets last minute...
 
Disney Springs is fun, with some very nice restaurants and quite a bit of live music.

Have you seen the nighttime shows? Those are my favorites. The new Star Wars fireworks at DHS are the best Disney has created in many years. I can watch Illuminations and Wishes multiple times on a trip.

If it were me, I'd pick my fave park, and not do attractions. Walk, people watch, enjoy the moment.
 

I agree with the people watching. Last trip I saw someone propose in front of the Castle. Super sweet and everyone cheered! Love people watching. Disney Springs has a lot to offer, and have you seen Zootopia yet? There's also Jellyrolls piano bar on the Boardwalk.
 
Disney Springs, monorail resort hop and grab drinks, apps, desserts at the lounges (and Trader Sam's), see the fireworks from Poly beach, go to the Boardwalk and see the evening entertainment (lounge at blue zoo is great for dinner, drinks!), head over to Ft. Wilderness to see the horses, grab a bite a Trails End.
 
I like illuminations solo - grab a beverage and walk around the WS, lots of yummy treats and some live entertainment.
Second the suggestion for Trader Sams, lots of fun inside and ukulele player outside and a great view of wishes and the water parade.
Disney springs is fine solo - I had a nice dinner at the Hangar Bar one night and ate a the outside kiosk at house of blues one evening when they had a live singer.
Animal Kingdom lodge is beautiful at night, they have animal viewing and a firepit.
PoR or POFQ have live entertainment in their bar area.....

Get Tickets for Cirque du Soleil La Nouba at Disney Springs. It is amazing! Lots to do at Disney Springs. From there you can hop on a boat to Port Orleans Riverside and stroll the sidewalk along the river among the Mansions. Take Tea at the Grand Floridian one day too!
 
Thanks everyone! Maybe I'll head over to Epcot WS. It has extra magic hours tonight. And I haven't seen illuminations yet.

I got a front seat to Fantasmic last night, which was AMAZING.

I've done soooo much walking hoping to rest my legs. (More so my back. My legs aren't sore at all but my back hurts!) I've walked 40 miles the last 2.5 days here at Disney
 
Wow - I'm impressed. I was there for 5 days (Just got back on Sunday March 6th) and barely got everything done that I wanted. I spent full days in each park to do it, too.

Check out Trader Sam's at the Poly. I never did make it over there. But I had a blast at Club Villian and also enjoyed the Marceline to the Magic Tour that I did.
 
this is not meant to be snarky in any way but...

I WISH I HAD YOUR PROBLEM!!!!!!!!!! lol

I would totally park my butt in a prime illuminations spot with a snack and adult beverage of my choice if I were you.


Hahaa! I didn't take that snarky at all!!!! I'm going to illuminations tonight! I want to look into club villian too. I think considering I've put in 40 miles on foot, I've seen a ton of the included in park ticket things. I haven't done any extra tours. I wanted to do the dolphin experience but no reservations left.
 
If you go to Disney Springs, head over to Raglan Road. They have a very nice outdoor patio and live music. Sit there, drink beverages (preferably adult), catch a buzz, then take the bus back to your resort.
Also some other entertainment options at DS

But having walked 16 miles per day, have you actually seen a lot, or have you been too busy rushing from place to place to check off boxes? There is so much detail...

I've seen a lot! Magic kingdom I've probably seen close to it all. Epcot I haven't seen all of which is what I'm headed to tonight.
 
Get an appointment at Mandara Spa at the Dolphin. My favorite solo activity

Have you taken in any amazing meals? Solo time is the best time to try new places or places you always wanted to try but your travel mates vote down.
 
Geez, I'd probably take a nap if it were me! Haha...what a problem to have! I personally love Disney Springs. There is a lot to do and see and great food! I'd second Raglan Road. The outdoor pub is amazing and they have a live Irish band every night. I'd also probably head over to SSR to Senses Spa and book me a foot massage, then soak away in the hot tub for a while!

Hot tub? I might have to do that. Wonder how much a spa appointment is?
