Hi Alexandra! I’m so happy you stopped by planDisney with such a great question. I love that you’re planning ahead! That kind of thoughtful timing will really make a difference when it comes to squeezing every drop of magic out of your evening at Magic Kingdom!
Currently, the
Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away Parade is running twice per night. There’s an early showing and another later in the evening. The dazzling
Happily Ever After fireworks spectacular usually lights up the sky between the two, making for one unforgettable nighttime lineup!
Of course, exact times can vary depending on the season, park hours, and even the weather, so I always suggest
checking the My Disney Experience app as your visit gets closer. Disney releases the most up-to-date entertainment schedules there, so you can plan your dessert party with confidence.
Right now, there are two magical offerings for the Magic Kingdom Fireworks Dessert Parties:
A Pre-Party and a
Post-Party. Personally, I’d rather get all the viewing done, then enjoy the treats, so I don’t feel rushed. With that in mind, I’d choose to watch the first parade, then Happily Ever After, then wrap up the evening indulging in tasty desserts.
However you plan it, I just know your night will sparkle with pixie dust, sweet treats, glowing lights, and that Happily Ever After feeling only Disney fireworks can bring!
I hope this helps as you continue to dream up and plan the most unforgettable time at the most magical place on earth! Please don’t hesitate to come back and visit us for any more questions or for extra planning tips!
See ya real soon! ~Emille
