Walt Disney World Begins Cancelling Villains After Hours Events Into July

    According to an email received by Twitter user @magicoftomorro1, Disney has begun to cancel the Villains After Hours events into July 2020 due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. This is a pretty significant move given that Disney is still accepting new reservations beginning June 1st, over a month earlier than the cancelled event.

    As you can see in the email below, Disney has begun to send out emails to guests who had booked Villains After Hours events. In this case, we have confirmed that the guest in question had booked the July 6th date.

    Important: Walt Disney World Resort Closures

    In keeping with our focus on the well-being of our Guests and Cast Members during this unprecedented time, Walt Disney World Resort remains closed until further notice. While we appreciate you making plans to visit, unfortunately, the Disney After Hours event that you reserved is not available due to the temporary closure.

    • If you paid via credit card, we will process a refund to your original form of payment.
    • If you paid via a Disney Gift Card or Disney Rewards Dollars, we will email you a new digital Disney Gift Card for the amount paid.
    • If you paid via cash, we will call you to discuss refund options including a mailed check or Disney Gift Card.

    If you did not book through Disney directly, please contact your Travel Professional for assistance.

    Rest assured, we will continue to monitor the situation and make timely decisions based on expert guidance. For the latest information, please visit DisneyWorld.com/Updates.

    We thank you for your continued understanding, and look forward to welcoming you again soon.

    As of publish time, guests are still able to purchase tickets for June and July dates, but we anticipate Disney will update the website shortly.

    Disney has removed theme park hours through May 23rd.

    1. So this is interesting. I purchased tickets for Villians After Dark for 4/30/20 at Disneyland. I called Disney on the day of the event because I had not received any communications from them and wanted to know if I was going to receive a refund. I was told I was not going to receive a refund because they were going to reschedule at a later time and I could use my tickets then. Now I’m frustrated and ticked off!
