Just have a late dinner at a monorail resort, set up shop on the Contemporary deck or Poly Beach and watch it for free. Then go back to the MK transport hub to go elsewhere.

What's the crowds like at these events when sold out? Don't laugh, but I wouldn't mind seeing Enchantment again.

I wish they would have these on nights that arent already extra magic hours for deluxes.

SirwalterraleighJan 14, 2025

That’s because the demand is so YUGE that the animatronic frogs were threatening to strike for higher voltage if they made them work one minute extra

Tha RealestJan 14, 2025

These after hours events are becoming less and less of a value proposition, but scrapping TBA off of there is really pitiful.

SirwalterraleighJan 14, 2025

AMAZING how these sellout….just at the buzzer… Best clutch operation in the game 🏀🗑️

We all know Disney changes things without notice...

lentestaJan 07, 2025

It's just a guess. I could be wrong. Let's see if it's added back once it gets warmer at night.

I’m going to MK After Hours this Monday and it’ll be so cold I don’t think I’d want to ride TBA anyway. That said, I really hope TRON doesn’t go down with Big Thunder already out for the year.

I was planning on booking MK After Hours for our next trip, but if Tiana’s isn’t included I don’t think it’ll be worth the price tag. Even with the 7pm mix-in, I doubt the technology will allow us to join the virtual queue. It’s not that I have some deep-seeded love for Tiana’s either… but with that and BTMRR down it doesn’t make sense for our group that will be mostly teenagers and young adults. Lightning Lanes or maybe upgrading to Deluxe to get extended hours is looking to be a better option.
