Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Kristen!
I can’t think of a better way to ring in the new year than at the Walt Disney World Resort. The dazzling fireworks, incredible dining options, and pixie dust in the air make it such a special place to celebrate, and starting a whole new year in that magical setting sounds practically perfect to me.
Epcot is the site of some serious celebrating on New Year’s Eve. You’ll find dance parties in several of the World Showcase countries (check out the Silent Dance Party in Japan) and lots of revelry, including a countdown and an extra-special showing of the Epcot Forever fireworks at midnight. I checked with a Cast Member, who confirmed that the
Frozen Ever After Dessert Party will not take place on New Year’s Eve. I hope you find
this list of New Year’s festivities all around the Walt Disney World Resort, including at Epcot, helpful as you plan your special celebration.
Kristen, my son is Elsa’s number one fan (along with eleven million other honorary citizens of Arendelle), and we can’t wait to see what Frozen treats, merchandise, and other fractals of fun appear around the Walt Disney World Resort once
Frozen 2 opens next month. If you have someone with Frozen fever in your life, make sure to read the
Disney Parks Blog as you prepare for your visit, as they will highlight all the Frozen fun coming our way. Hopefully we won’t be going “into the unknown” for much longer!
As you plan your New Year’s visit, please come back and see us if you have any more questions. It’s our pleasure to help as you plan to say chEARs to the new yEAR, Mickey-style!
Wishing you a magical vacation,
Robyn
