If you’ve been thinking about booking a Disney After Hours event, you may want to act fast. Another date has officially reached capacity!
Demand for Walt Disney World’s popular Disney After Hours events continues to grow, with yet another Magic Kingdom event now completely sold out. As guests continue looking for lower crowds, shorter attraction wait times, and exclusive nighttime access to the park, available event dates are disappearing quickly.
If you’ve been hoping to experience Magic Kingdom after dark this summer, here’s what you need to know before more dates sell out.
Disney has officially sold out the Monday, June 1, 2026, Disney After Hours event at Magic Kingdom, making it the fifth sold-out Magic Kingdom After Hours event of the 2026 season.
The sold-out dates now include:
- January 12, 2026
- March 9, 2026
- May 18, 2026
- May 25, 2026
- June 1, 2026
With demand continuing to climb, remaining event nights could also begin reaching capacity as summer crowds increase.
What Dates Are Still Available?
As of now, Disney still has tickets available for the remaining 2026 Magic Kingdom After Hours events:
- June 22
- June 29
- July 13
- July 27
However, availability can change at any time, especially as vacation travel picks up throughout the summer. Guests interested in attending should consider purchasing tickets sooner rather than later.
What Is Disney After Hours?
Disney After Hours is a separately ticketed event that allows guests to experience Magic Kingdom with limited attendance after the park closes to day guests.
The event officially runs from 10 PM until 1 AM, but ticket holders can enter Magic Kingdom as early as 7 PM, giving guests up to six hours inside the park.
One of the biggest draws is the significantly reduced wait times at many of Magic Kingdom’s most popular attractions.
Participating attractions typically include favorites such as:
- TRON Lightcycle / Run
- Seven Dwarfs Mine Train
- Space Mountain
- Haunted Mansion
- Pirates of the Caribbean
- Peter Pan’s Flight
- Jungle Cruise
- Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
- Tiana’s Bayou Adventure
- And many more, subject to availability.
Complimentary Snacks Are Included
Unlike regular park admission, Disney After Hours also includes complimentary refreshments throughout the event.
Guests can enjoy popcorn, Mickey ice cream novelties, as well as select bottled beverages.
These snacks are included in the cost of admission and are available at designated locations around the park during the event.
Why These Events Keep Selling Out
Disney After Hours has become increasingly popular because it offers something many guests are willing to pay extra for — more time in the parks with fewer people.
With limited attendance, guests often experience dramatically shorter wait times compared to regular operating hours, making it possible to enjoy several headline attractions in a single evening.
For many visitors, especially those with shorter vacations, the event can provide exceptional value by allowing them to accomplish more in just a few hours.
The growing list of sold-out dates suggests that demand remains strong heading into the busy summer travel season.
More Sell-Outs Could Be on the Way
If the trend continues, the remaining June and July Disney After Hours events at Magic Kingdom could also sell out before their scheduled dates.
Guests planning a Walt Disney World vacation this summer should keep an eye on ticket availability and purchase early if experiencing Magic Kingdom with lower crowds is part of their vacation plans.
