    If Epcot closes at 9 pm, and Illuminations is on at 9pm..how late can I wander around world showcase for?

    Hi, Suzanne!

    As soon as Illuminations begins in Epcot, each of the countries will close for the evening. You are welcome to leisurely exit the park and the World Showcase area once Illuminations ends but know that all attractions will be closed.

    Usually once this nighttime spectacular is complete, my family heads to MouseGear for any last minute souvenir shopping. We let the crowds filter out a bit then head to our car or Disney bus.  This seems to be the best way to avoid the rush at the exits.

    Have a wonderful evening in Epcot!

Meet the Panelist: Cathy, Ohio

Hi, I'm Cathy from Cleveland. I love to travel, especially in the winter to escape the cold of Ohio! My husband and 2 kids share my enthusiasm for travel, so we enjoy our adventures together whether it is sailing with Disney Cruise Line, running (or cheering!) at runDisney events, taking hula lessons at Aulani, or vacationing at the Walt Disney World which is our home away from home. I am proud to be a part of the planDisney team and cannot wait to share my tips and advice for a magical vacation
