MAGIC KINGDOM AFTER HOURS 2026 ENTERTAINMENT
During your night at Magic Kingdom, gather in front of the castle to discover an exclusive presentation of Disney Enchantment. Disney Enchantment was presented nightly at Magic Kingdom from September 2021 through early April 2023 before being replaced by the former nighttime spectacular – Happily Ever After.
Now, Disney Enchantment returns exclusively for Disney After Hours guests on select nights. Guests attending Disney After Hours can actually enter Magic Kingdom early enough to enjoy Happily Ever After during regular hours and Disney Enchantment exclusively during the party.
MAGIC KINGDOM AFTER HOURS 2026 SNACKS
Select snacks are included in your ticket, such as ice cream novelties, popcorn, and bottled beverages. Snack carts will be scattered throughout the park, so you never have to go far to enjoy a tasty treat.
