Hiya Vinnie!
Welcome to planDisney, the most magical place on the internet! After-hours events like Disney After Dark and the seasonal parties, in my opinion, are such a great activity to add to your vacation as they allow you to get so much done. Indeed, due to reduced theme park capacity, wait times for your favourite attractions are typically much lower than during regular theme park hours. And do I even have to mention complimentary snacks?
At this time, select dates from January to April 2023 have been announced for Disney After Dark events and
tickets are available online. However, we, unfortunately, do not know if more dates or tickets will be added to the current availability. In this case, I would recommend keeping an eye on the
Walt Disney World Resort website and the
Disney Parks Blog. Indeed, the Disney Parks Blog will usually post announcements about all kinds of news related to Disney Parks, so that is always a good place to look.
If you want to experience unique offerings, though, you have also picked the perfect time to visit! Indeed, the
EPCOT International Festival of the Arts will return from January 13th through February 20th, 2023, and we could not be more excited. Although the EPCOT Festivals are quite different from after-hours events, they also offer special seasonal treats, activities and other offerings that are only available during that time of year. The EPCOT International Festival of the Arts is one of my favourites as it includes a
giant paint-by-number activity, special decorations and artist performances,
colourful and delicious food, and
performances by Disney Broadway legends! All you need to enjoy these special offerings is a valid theme park ticket and reservation.
I hope this was helpful, Vinnie, and that you will have the best day ever on your next Disney vacation. If you have any other questions in the time leading up to your trip, please don't hesitate to reach back out! Helping fellow Guests make magical memories that will last a lifetime is always such an honour.
Have a magical day,
Ariane
