Greetings, Julie!
I'm a big fan of any special event that lets me squeeze a little bit more Disney into my day, and Early Morning Magic is a great way to do just that. The event is put on both at
Fantasyland in
Magic Kingdom Park, and
Toy Story Land in
Disney's Hollywood Studios, and allows guests the opportunity to enter the theme parks early to experience attractions with little to no wait. I can definitely relate to your family wanting to get tickets to an event like that! Last month, Early Morning Magic was extended through the end of August for Toy Story Land, and through the end of September for Fantasyland. I had a look at the date you were trying to book for your family, and if no availability is popping up for that date it is likely because the event has sold out. Tickets for Early Morning Magic are very limited and extremely popular and tend to get purchased by guests very quickly after they become available, which is probably one of the reasons more dates keep being added! I would suggest calling the Disney Reservation Center at (407) 827-7350 to check for sure if there are any tickets left.
If you're looking for some fun events to attend during your vacation, I recommend getting tickets to
Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party! You'll be able to experience Magic Kingdom Park with fewer guests in there with you than usual, as well as some spooktacular Halloween entertainment!
Have a magical day, Julie!
