Hello there, Christine!
All of your dreams will come true during one of the
Magic Kingdom Fireworks Dessert Parties: Post Party. This is personally my favorite way to enjoy the Happily Ever After fireworks spectacular.
Christine, if you’re visiting Magic Kingdom Park on September 2, 2023, the
current theme park hours are 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. I recommend checking the Hours & Events Calendar two weeks and one day before your trip to ensure the hours remain the same. At this time, the Happily Ever After nighttime spectacular is projected to start at 9:00 p.m. This means you’ll want to check in at the dessert party at 8:00 p.m. since you need to check in 60 minutes prior to the spectacular.
The Happily Ever After nighttime spectacular is approximately 20 minutes long. As soon as the show is over, a friendly Cast Member will escort you to Tomorrowland Terrace Restaurant for the dessert party portion of the evening. You’ll find delicious desserts, a variety of cheeses, and an assortment of different beverages. The time relaxing at the Tomorrowland Terrace Restaurant is the perfect time to let the majority of the crowds leave the theme park while you are tasting different tarts and desserts.
This doesn’t leave too much time for attractions after the Dessert Party. Also, getting an individual Lightning Lane entry for TRON Lightcycle / Run at a specific time can be tricky since this attraction is so popular, and Lightning Lane entry purchases are limited in availability. I recommend trying to get an individual Lightning Lane entry for TRON Lightcycle / Run earlier in the day and doing
Seven Dwarfs Mine Train after the Dessert Party. It’s about a five-minute walk to Seven Dwarfs Mine Train from Tomorrowland Terrace Restaurant, and you’ll also want to account for the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train currently listed wait time. You can find this on the
My Disney Experience mobile app by pressing the location symbol. If the wait time is very low, there’s a chance you’ll be able to do rider swap since the attraction itself is pretty quick.
I wish you the best of luck doing everything your heart desires. Just remember that wait times and attraction availability are subject to change, and sometimes plans fall through. If this happens, stay positive and look for more Disney magic during a different part of your Walt Disney World Resort vacation. You may be surprised by what you find.
May the magic be with you!Melanie
