    Are the boats still running for MK or the contemporary resort after the 8:30 show of Hoop de doo revue?

    Hi there Brenda,

    Welcome to planDisney! Thanks for sending in your question, and how wonderful that your trip to Disney World is coming up soon. I confess I took at peek at a previous question you've submitted, and when I saw that this visit will be a mother-and-son trip... my heart melted a little! I recently experienced my first mother-and-son vacation at Disney World, and it was practically perfect in every way. And the highlight was our visit to Hoop-Dee-Doo Review!!

    This dinner show is absolutely fantastic. It's funny and enjoyable for all ages, and the food is delicious. We also chose the late 8:30 pm show time, and were able to still ride the Disney boat transportation back to Magic Kingdom afterwards, then transfer to our resort bus. This can vary depending on park closing time. I see on the Park Operating Calendar that Magic Kingdom stays open until 10:00 pm on your arrival date. The Disney transportation should run for an hour after that (until around 11:00 pm). Since your show will last around two hours, I fully expect you'll be able to ride the boat afterwards.

    I have one small tip for you, based on my experience and given you'll be there with your young son. My son is a young teen, but very shy and doesn't like being in the lime light. There are portions of this show that are interactive, especially if you find yourself in the front by the stage, or in the very center of the Pioneer Hall floor seating area. We were right in the center. Let's just say that location saw a little too much action for his taste, and he was embarrassed! He loved it, but I think he would have preferred to sit on a quieter, darker edge of the hall.

    I'm so excited for you to have this magical experience with your son! Being able to go at your child's pace, have a snack when they need one, and let their choice of attractions guide your park day makes them feel so special. Enjoy every magical moment, and please eat some of that amazing strawberry shortcake at Hoop-Dee-Doo for me!

    If I can help with any other ride, food, or park recommendations please send me a message at planDisney. I'd love to help!

    Sending pixie dust,
    Tami
