Moonlight Magic in the Theme Parks - does Park close to others?

[moreisgood]

I'm looking at the Moonlight Magic event at Epcot this August. I believe that MM starts at 7 pm, although you can enter the park earlier. Will the park close at 7 pm to the public? Do they ask everyone to leave, similar to the Very Merry Christmas party? If anyone has the latest details as to timing, etc, I'd love to hear them.

There is not time yet listed for MM for Epcot. Last time it started around 9 pm after the park closed. You were able to get into the park around 7 pm with you MM registration, but the extra stuff is not set up until the park is closed to other guests.

Do they clear everyone out, like a MVMCP?

Yes, you have to have wristband to remain in the park and they do check them.
