Happily Ever After Time CHANGE

Pay attention; this is important! Starting March 10th, 2024, Magic Kingdom’s Happily Ever After fireworks show will move to an 8:30PM start time.

Happily Ever After

The show currently starts at 8PM each night, so keep this in mind if you’re planning to watch the fireworks. The area in front of the castle gets SUPER crowded before the show, so make sure to grab a spot nice and early. Otherwise, you may end up with an obstructed view.

ALERT! Parade and Fireworks Times Are Changing SOON in Magic Kingdom
