Question re. Grad Nites

[JackieR]

This is my initial posting and I'm also a newbie to WDW so forgive any mistakes. I am planning a trip to the World for several adult family members and am concerned about going during the Grad nite periods. Is this a real problem and will it seriously impair our enjoyment of the World? We are planning dates April 25-May 10, 2007. I'd appreciate any help!

usually grad night is held after park hours or towards the end of the night. that's how it was at the place i went to for my grad night a few years back.

I haven't been to WDW during grad nights, however, my kids have. MK closes early to the general public - usually around 6:00 to prepare and reopen around 9:00 for the high school seniors only. They have the park exclusively until around 1 AM. If you know the night they will be closing early, just be sure to have alternate evening plans - maybe one of the other parks may have EMH evening hours or head to DTD. It looks like you'll be at the World long enough that this won't be a problem. We were there in early May last year and the crowds were minimal - what a treat!! Have a wonderful time!!
