    I have after hours event tickets to Magic Kingdom and/or Hollywood Studios in May. We want eat at one of the restaurants but not sure where to go to get the special event wristbands. Do we have to exit the parks and wait in the line again?

    Welcome to planDisney, Kelley! 

    I’m so excited that you’re going to visit The Most Magical Place on Earth for an After Hours event! WOOHOO! It is so wonderful to have lower crowds, shorter lines, and the cool of the evening making magic for you all night! I hope you have a magical time when your night comes! 

    I’m happy to let you know that you do not need to exit and re-enter the park to get your After Hours wristband. If you are visiting the park that you will be attending the After Hours event at before the event starts, all you need to do is visit a checkpoint within the theme park, scan your ticket with a Cast Member, and they’ll give you your wristband! You can go on your merry way after you get your wristband! If the wristbands are available before your dining reservation, get them then! If they’re not handing them out before your check in to your meal, then get your wristband from a Cast Member after you finish your dining experience! 

    I hope you enjoy all of the magic during your After Hours night, Kelley! Snack on all of the treats, prioritize the rides you’d like to experience, and then ENJOY! You deserve all of the fun! 

    If you have additional questions before your trip, we’d love to hear from you again at planDisney
