You may already be familiar with — or perhaps have even attended — Disney After Hours in Magic Kingdom. This extra-ticket event takes place for three hours after park close on select nights, and the limited guest access means little-to-no-wait for popular attractions (with event guests allowed to enter the park as early as 7 PM). The event also includes snacks like ice cream novelties, popcorn, and select beverages.
