If I want to do Peter Pan last thing (heard it was shut down during parade) what time will it close with these hours?

Park closes at 8.
PTN at 7.
Fireworks 7:40.

Thanks!
 
I was told by a CM when I asked about firework closure's that Peter Pan is first at approximately 45-60 minutes before it starts to ensure everyone in line gets through and the ride is empty. Other rides will close in the 30min mark before fireworks except Storybook Canal Boats which closes prior to the Parade.

With the Park closing at 8, i'm guessing 7pm will be the approximate time it will close.
 
My guess is that they will not reopen it after the Fireworks, if they start at 7:40 with an 8pm closure.

I have not heard that it closes for the Parade but does for the Fireworks, as it is in the "Fall Out Zone."
 

They probably would close it by 6:40 in order to have the area clear by the time the fireworks start.
I do not believe the ride will be reopened after that since it will be 8 or after when the fireworks are actually completed.
 
I think it will be interesting to see how this fireworks every night is going to play out when closing is 8 or 9PM because honestly that really eats into time in the park on very short park days. I was initially quite happy to see that there would be fireworks even on the shorter days we are visiting but now I am beginning to wonder if it's going to be a mixed blessing.

I've been stalking the website for my hours and the week prior right now is posting til 9 pm so I might get lucky for an extra hour. Fingers crossed!

Hours are supposed to reflect crowds and considering how busy everyone is saying the 60th has made DLR - perhaps we will see fewer and fewer days of 10AM-8PM.
 
As others have said, the parade won't affect Peter Pan. I think the only attraction that shuts down due to the parade is Storybook Canal Boats (technically, the train also shuts down briefly while the parade is enroute, but the train is not operating at this point). Fireworks, on the other hand, results in the closure of a lot of Fantasyland and all of Toontown. In FL, Mr. Toad, Peter Pan, the Castle Walkthrough, Snow White, Pinnochio, Alice, and Carousel are closed (I'm not sure about Dumbo or the Tea Cups). In my experience, FL tends to re-open somewhere around 15 to 30 minutes after fireworks ends, so if fireworks are at 7:40 pm and the park closes at 8:00 pm, it's unlikely that FL would re-open. If the park stays open until 9:00 pm, then there is a better chance that it'll re-open after the safety checks are completed.
 
Last night Space went down for the night. When I went to use my FP at 7:30 they gave me a ReAd and PP and Alice were already down. The fireworks were at 8:40 for a 9pm closing.
