Disney After Hours 2027 Prices Climb at Every Park
Disney’s official 2027 Disney After Hours schedule confirms higher price ranges at Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, and Hollywood Studios. Magic Kingdom crosses the $200 line for the first time in the published range, while the other two parks each add $10 to their previous maximum.
| Park | 2026 range | 2027 range | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Magic Kingdom | $175-$199 | $189-$209 | +$14 floor, +$10 ceiling |

| EPCOT | $155-$179 | $159-$189 | +$4 floor, +$10 ceiling |
The calendar is tighter, too. Disney has scheduled 19 Magic Kingdom nights, 22 Hollywood Studios nights, and 15 EPCOT nights. That adds up to 56 events, down from 62 in 2026. Magic Kingdom gains one night, but Hollywood Studios loses three and EPCOT loses four.

When Disney After Hours 2027 Tickets Go on Sale
Guests staying at Disney Resorts Collection hotels can purchase 2027 tickets now for event dates that fall during their stay. The same early window applies to guests at the Walt Disney World Swan, Swan Reserve, Dolphin, and Shades of Green.
All other guests can begin buying tickets on September 22, 2026. Disney says capacity is limited, so the safest approach is to choose a first-choice night and a backup before sales open instead of building a whole itinerary around one date.
Annual Passholders and Disney Vacation Club Members can save $30 per ticket at EPCOT and Hollywood Studios. Disney does not list that discount for Magic Kingdom. If your dates are flexible, compare the discounted parks as well as the sticker price.
What the 2027 Disney After Hours Ticket Includes
Each event provides three hours in the park after it closes to regular guests. Disney limits attendance, keeps a selection of attractions running with lower waits, and includes ice cream novelties, popcorn, and select bottled drinks.
The 7:00 p.m. entry time matters. A guest arriving at the earliest allowed time can spend up to six hours inside Magic Kingdom or five and a half hours inside EPCOT or Hollywood Studios without buying a separate daytime ticket for that park. The limited-capacity portion is still only three hours, and attraction availability can change.
Expect the event to center on each park’s biggest ride draws: TRON Lightcycle / Run and Seven Dwarfs Mine Train at Magic Kingdom, Star Wars and Toy Story Land attractions at Hollywood Studios, and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, and Test Track at EPCOT. Disney notes that admission does not guarantee access to any particular attraction.
Is Disney After Hours Worth the 2027 Price?
The strongest case is for visitors who value repeat rides and want to concentrate several high-demand attractions into one late night. It is a harder sell for families with children who may fade before midnight, guests focused on daytime entertainment, or anyone who would use only a few of the included attractions.
Before buying, compare the event with the regular admission options in our Disney World tickets guide. Also look at the actual attractions your group will ride, the event end time, and whether the $30 member discount changes the answer. The cheapest park is not automatically the best value if its ride lineup does not match your priorities.
Disney offered the same three-park format for 2025, but the new calendar makes the buying window more important. Our earlier Disney After Hours coverage shows how the event has grown into a recurring part of the Walt Disney World calendar.
