Question about fireworks and shorter park hours

[trirae]

I'm sure this has been answered before, but I'm wondering what happens in the months when the park hours are shorter regarding firework shows. I assume it has to be dark to show them. We're going Oct. 20th, and the historical data shows closing around 6-7 pm. Will the fireworks displays happen at that point, or do they not do them unless they are open later?

TIA,
Tricia

By that time of year, it is dark when the parks close, even though they are closing earlier than the summer. The usually have fireworks. If you are staying on property and they are having a MNSSHP night and you aren't going, you can go on over to either the CR, FW, Poly & GF and watch the ones for that as well. They are usually different than the others...they have orange colors in them... and for MVMCP in Nov & Dec they have red & green colors... pretty cool

Fireworks happen every night as I recall, but Spectro is only shown a couple times a week. We always went when we could see both in the same evening.

Here is a link to last year's hours, it should give you a general idea of what to expect. Wishes started the 9th of October.
