Should I go to Epcot PM EMH?

[pens4821]

Going end of February and one night has EP open until 11. We have FP for wishes at 8, was thinking of heading over after that. We are mostly interested in exploring the WS. I've read some things are open/some closed. Is there enough going on to be worth going in the WS or not? Looking at going in shops and getting a couple drinks? We'd maybe ride TT at the end too, but mostly would just focus on WS.

Wondering same...Haven't found much info on this in my searches. We would like to do WS food/snack/drink sampling at night but like you have seen/heard a lot closes after Illuminations at 9 so didn't know if we should bother.

I found this thread from a couple of years ago. It doesn't mention anything about the shops, but it does show some restaurants.

It looks like the Cava del Telquila is available during EMH as well.

We did EMH at EPCOT for the first time last December. We stayed in the World Showcase and found it to be very quiet. We were surprised that many locations were closing well before the 11:30 close and the two big gift shops were closed as well. The only ride we went on was Spaceship Earth as we walked back through Future World towards the exit. It was very relaxing to walk around without the crowds - but definitely low key.

I know this will be a hard question to answer, but do you think it's worth it for WS (taking out riding in FW). I guess the best question is would you use that as the only time to experience the WS?

For our family we would consider it a bonus not a replacement for spending normal hours in the WS. It was relaxing but I found myself telling DH a few times as we walked around how surprised I was that so many things were closed. That went for FW too. There were rides open but my boys (13 & 11) would have liked to shop some more and gone into Club Cool another time. In all the years we've been to Disney we had never done PM EMH at Epcot so it was fun to do but I wouldn't be too disappointed if we missed it next time.
