    We have a reservation for Epcot on NYE, will all the rides be on until 12am too, and if so will there be an extra chance to get virtual queues for Guardians?

    Welcome back to planDisney, Sara. Your holiday plans at Walt Disney World are so close to becoming reality. I bet you just can't wait to get swept up in the magic!

    EPCOT is my favourite Walt Disney World Park. You can expect quite the party at EPCOT on New Year's Eve, with DJs playing around the World Showcase and a festive atmosphere like nowhere else. The full details on what will be open on December 31, 2023, are not yet released. On nights when extended evening hours typically operate, however, rides remain available and there is an additional chance at 6 pm for eligible Guests to obtain a Virtual Queue for Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind - my ultimate ride across Walt Disney World. 

    Did you know that for your visit, you'll find the newly launched nighttime spectacular Luminous The Symphony of Us is due to display earlier at 6:30 pm. That means you can delight in this new show (I'm so excited) and later catch some spectacular fireworks that are usually welcome in the New Year at EPCOT. 

    As I mentioned, it's quite the party here, so if you envisage needing a little break, please ensure that you make any sit-down dining reservations as soon as possible. 

    I hope this information helps, Sara. We're always here to help with anything else ahead of your Walt Disney World adventure. Enjoy all the festivities on your vacation, Louise.
