New Year's Eve Schedule?

[MarkLem]

ANyone know where I can find a schedule of fireworks, etc. for NYE?

In Epcot, will they do the Illuminations at the normal time and then at Midnight do something additional?

Here's what I found:

Magic Kingdom: Park Hours 9am-Midnight
Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Parade: 2pm
Spectro Magic: 8pm and 10pm
Wishes: 9pm (but they usually do an early fireworks show for the kids and a midnight one for the New Year...no additional time listed as of yet).

Epcot: Park Hours FW 9am-1am World Showcase 10am-1am
Illuminations: 7:30pm and 11:40pm

Disney MGM Studios: Park Hours 8am-1am
Stars and Motor Cars Parade: 3pm
Fantasmic!: 6:30pm, 8:30pm and 10pm

Animal Kingdom: Park Hours 8am-6pm
Mickey's Jammin Jungle Parade: 3:45pm

They usually open the parks earlier for resort guests but that is a last minute decision that is circulated via a flyer in your room at the resorts... Also Epcot is the Early Magic hour park that day so FW will open at 8am for resort guest...

Thank you for posting the NYE info! I have been waiting for it for months! Where did you find it? Did it just come out?

Do you know if there is any entertainment at the resorts or dtd? Two years ago we stayed at POR and they had a great party.It was so much better than fighting the crowds.

Hi Liberty
Where did you find the 7:30 Illuminations at Epcto? On the WDW website I only saw the 11:40 PM Illuminations show, no 7:30 PM.

Thanks

I work at WDW I found all the info for you on our cast information web site

Don't forget Sorcery in the SKy at midnight over at MGM.

 

[MarkLem]

Thanks a bunch Liberty

Matt, what's Sorcery in the Sky? Is it only on NYE?

 

[LibertyBelle]

I forgot about Sorcery. It is not listed on our web site as being offered that night but then again neither is a midnight fireworks show for MK which they ALWAYS do. Keep an eye out for that one too.

Sorcery is the old fireworks show that they used to do at MGM before Fantasmic! came along. They do usually do it on New Years Eve...
