Hi there Richard, welcome to planDisney!
In less than a week you'll be at Walt Disney World Resort hanging out at
Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park's
Moonlight Magic with fellow Disney Vacation Club Members! As a DVC Member, one of my favorite perks and benefits are the Member events and Moonlight Magic tops my list. How can you not love experiencing the parks by way of a complimentary event that offers exclusive after-hours access, shorter-than-usual wait times, Character greetings, entertainments and special treats! My family has attended Moonlight Magic events in the past and my children still talk about them.
I spoke to DVC Member Services and verified the early entry time for Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme park's Moonlight Magic event on February 27th. The official event hours are 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM and check-in starts at 4:00 PM. There will be a station inside each park where DVC Members who are registered for the event can check in and get their event wristband and food voucher. The Cast Members will also have park maps that are specific to the Moonlight Magic event. They will list all info for dining (as not all restaurants and snack locations will be open during the event). I highly recommend stopping by
Satu'li Canteen before the evening events begin, it's one of my favorite places to eat at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park (the Chopped Wood-Grilled Chicken Bowl is delicious!).
Richard, I hope this information is helpful to your vacation planning. I wish you a memorable time at the DVC Moonlight Magic event, you are going to have such a fantastic time! If you have any other questions, please visit
planDisney again.
Sivako!
