There is quite an extensive list of attractions that are available for Extended Evening Hours. Be sure to check out the full list of these attractions HERE.

Extended hours WHICH USED TO BE FOR ALL WDW RESORT GUESTS should return to being for ALL guests. It is extremely elitist of the powers that he to offer to have a to the people who could most afford to pay extra for the pleasure.
So many perks have disappearred very recently that this Disney family needs to think seriously about if it is worth it to stay on site.
