Magic Kingdom at closing time??

[disney1474]

Hello all!

MK is closing at 11:00 pm on the day we are visiting in August. My question is after wishes is over will the rides still be open? The calendar also says they will have the parade at 11:00 also. Never stayed this late with the kids at closing time. Would love to do a ride after the fireworks if they're not cranky

If 11 is closing time, they won't allow guests to enter attraction lines after 11. If it's evening extra magic, after 11 you have to have a band or card from a resort to scan in order to enter attraction lines.

When is Wishes? If Wishes is at 10 you have between the time Wishes ends (I guess about 10:30) and 11 to get in line for attractions.

Wishes ends at 10.12....it is 12 minutes long, if the park doesn't close til 11 then the rides should be open.

As the PP said, as long as the park is still open and the attraction is still open, they will let you get into line. So if MK is open until 11:00 pm, you can get into a line for an attraction until 11:00 pm. A handful of rides may close early (e.g., I think CoP doesn't always stay open until closing), but those times are usually posted in the times guide and they are rarely the "E Ticket" rides. Also, from what I've read, Anna & Elsa meet until 30 minutes before the park closes. I don't know if these means they close the line 30 minutes before the park closes or if the cut the line off at some point so that the last guest gets to them about 30 minutes before the park closes, but either way, it means you cannot get into line just as MK is closing.
