New Years in the Disney Parks
With large numbers of Guests visiting Walt Disney World for the holiday season, we have seen extended hours added to the Park calendar. For example, Magic Kingdom will close at 9:00pm December 26th through December 29th.
What is exciting is that there will be additional hours of magic in the Magic Kingdom on both Thursday, December 30th and Friday, December 31st (New Years Eve.) On both nights the Magic Kingdom will close at 1:00am. As always the Park hours have been updated on the Character Locator.
Guests are very excited to see the return of Fantasy Firework show. There is a special New Year’s Eve event at the California Grill. In EPCOT, there is a great New Year’s countdown firework display as well. Check out both of these great experiences HERE.
There is also a FREE party to welcome in the New Year in Disney Springs. This is a great alternative for Guests unable to secure a Park Pass Reservation.
Lunar New Year
Over at California Adventure, Guests can enjoy the Lunar New Year in a truly magical way. Beginning January 21, 2022, Guests can enjoy Mulan’s Lunar New Year Procession. “Don’t miss this bright and bold magical march honoring family, friendship and the potential for a fortune-filled new year.”
Guests can enjoy Mulan’s Lunar New Year Procession beginning January 21, 2022 through February 13, 2022.
This 20 minute processional will travel from Pixar Pier to Parade Garden Park. “The show kicks off as the sound of triumphant music fills the air and dozens of beautifully costumed performers populate the street.”
“You won’t be able to take your eyes off this dazzling display featuring Mulan, Tigger, some Disney pals and a spirited group of entertainers- a Chinese dragon puppet, warrior, drummers and dancers.”
This magical processional will delight Guests at 1:00pm, 2:15pm, 4:15pm, 5:15pm, and 6:30pm. Guests can enjoy Mulan’s Lunar New Year Procession beginning January 21, 2022 through February 13, 2022.
