Moonlight Magic Epcot Question

[stormer]

We will be at attending the event on February12. I have been doing my research so we have a plan before we get there. I’ve read that some of the festival kiosks accept the food vouchers. Is there any way to find out which specific kiosk items you can use the vouchers for before you get there?

Sometimes DVC sends out an email the day before, and recently those have included an attachment with map, participating dining locations, etc.

We won’t be using park tickets that day. Does anyone know what time we’ll be able to enter Epcot? Thanks!

Yes - at minimum MM guests can enter 2 hours before the park officially closes to day guests.

Like when we did AK with 6pm closing and 7-10pm MM, we could enter as early as 4pm without a park ticket.

With Epcot usually closing at 9pm, at minimum you should be able to enter as early as 7pm for 10p-1a MM event.

7pm

Isn't it admission allowed around 3 hours prior to park closing?

To my knowledge, they have not released that information yet for this year's event. So I am going off of the last EP event.

Probably safer to say between and 6-7p.

I was at the Animal Kingdom one last night. I checked in at the area they had setup within the park. They scanned your band to confirm your reservation. Gave you a guide to what was available, including food and then gave you your three snack coupons.

Moonlight Magic officially starts 1 hour after park closing. It’s possible entry starts 3 hours prior to the event, which would put it 2 hours before regular park closing. The event we attended was like that. At minimum it will be 2 hours before park closing.

Event now starts 30 minutes after regular park hours end (vs 1 hour)

There is no mentioned Moonlight Magic end time. Busses typically stop 1 hour after the event ends, so it may be ending, so I presume the end time is 12:30am.

• You may check in as early as 7 p.m. at the Main Entrance of EPCOT or International Gateway.
• Regular park hours stop at 9:00 p.m.
• Event officially begins at 9:30 p.m. (complimentary ice cream novelties)
• Special fireworks show at 11 p.m.
• Moonlight Magic ends 12:30 a.m.? (guestimate based on when busses stop running and also 3 hours of MM after 9:30 start time)
• Bus service will operate until 1:30 a.m.
