Help me plan a 4 park, 1 day extravaganza!!!

[godders]

Hey everyone!!!

So I've seen a few people talking about their 4 park day blowouts and thought it would be fun for my upcoming solo trip in September.

It's hopefully going to be on Weds 16th and I haven't planned any food for that day, figured it would be more efficient to just grab it when I need it.

Do people have any tips for park order? Should I use my fp for the 2nd or 3rd park? How many headliners should I realistically expect to hit?

Any advice would be awesome!!!

I guess I missed when you are going but in Epcot they have the Flower and Garden show which is quite extensive with a lot of topiary and new topiary. So I might start there. Depending on what you like you might want to check park hours who have extended hours. Not much new at Hollywood studios or Animal Kingdom or Magic Kingdom.. You might want to get Fast Pass for whatever you want to see the new magic bands seem to have some of the rides backed up that you could just walk on before them.

Whatever you do have a magical time and enjoy your trip!

Here's Tony Spittell's blog from a couple years ago where he hit all 4 Parks in Orlando, plus both in California. Might give you some ideas.

I would end at whatever park you enjoy the fireworks show the most. For me that would be magic kingdom. However if there are late night hours somewhere else and your on property that would make the most sense

I've done a 4 parks in 1 day extravaganza a few times. In terms of how to hit the parks, that really depends on park hours, if your driving or taking Disney transportation (I've always taking Disney transportation), and preference. Looking up the park hours for September, 16th, my plan would be the following (and what I did this January 4th).


Sept 16th (13 hours of park time available)
1st - DAK for EMH
Safari
Everest
Dinosaur

2nd - DHS by bus
TSMM FP+
TOT FP+
GMR
(Lunch)
Muppets
Star Tours FP+


3rd - EPCOT By boat
Imagination FP+ made at international gateway kiosk everything else was many hours away
Spaceship Earth
I had originally hoped to hit Mission Space and Nemo but didn't want to risk missing 3:00 FOF parade at MK so cut it short

4th - Monorail to MK
Finish out day at MK getting FP+ for rides you want with short waits. You should have 5-6 hours in the park before closing. I had closer to 9 with midnight closing.


Looking at the calendar, the better day would probably be Saturday the 19th. Assuming your staying onsite You'd have morning EMH at DHS to take care of TSMM, and you have evening EMH at MK so it stays open until midnight.

Sept 19th (alternate date with 16 hours of available park time)
1st - DHS
TSMM
TOT
Etc.

2nd. - EPCOT
Soarin- FP+
what ever else you want

3rd - DAK (just watch the 5:00 closing time)
Can hopefully pick up same day FP+ for Safari,
Single Rider Everest

4th - MK
Save most of the headliners for sameday FP+ if available or EMH Finishing with Peter Pan and/or 7DMT.
