Hiya Estela!
Welcome to planDisney! New Year's Eve is still a while away and news about the festivities has not yet come out but I am excited if you arrive in time to celebrate in the Parks!
You are correct that
EPCOT will be one of the best places to celebrate and welcome in the new year! Last year there was an amazing celebration in EPCOT throughout the World Showcase. It is not held in the nights before but usually only on New Year's Eve so make sure you have a
theme park ticket and are in the Parks ready to celebrate late into the night. This is a very popular event so I would think twice before leaving the Park to return as there is a good chance that Park capacity will be reached and you will be left out. Make sure to wear good shoes perfect for dancing and all the walking as there are usually several dance parties with DJs and entertainment throughout the World Showcase. Most people like to party hop from one country's Pavilion to another to experience it all. As midnight approaches, a countdown will be projected onto Spaceship Earth followed by a
festive fireworks show.
Magic Kingdom Park tends to show their New Year's Eve fireworks show, Fantasy in the Sky, on December 30 and December 31 each year. Check the
Hours & Events Calendar to confirm as you get closer to the date but this may be a good way to get in some celebration time a bit earlier and focus on EPCOT on December 31. I also find that following Disney Parks (
@disneyparks) on Instagram is a great way to get information quicker so make sure to check it out!
I hope this helps and that you have a fabulous time!
Happy Planning!
