Celebrating New Year’s Eve at EPCOT

Disney World is famous for its holiday celebrations—from trick-or-treating at Magic Kingdom to snow falling on Main Street. But what about one of the biggest celebrations of all: New Year’s Eve?

This year, we traveled to Florida to ring in the New Year at Walt Disney World, celebrating with Mickey and Minnie and partying around World Showcase in EPCOT. In this episode, we break down what it’s really like to spend New Year’s Eve at Disney—and whether it’s actually worth it.

In this episode you’ll hear:

• What New Year’s Eve is like at Disney World
• Celebrating around EPCOT’s World Showcase at midnight
• Crowd levels, entertainment, and party atmosphere
• Pros and cons of spending New Year’s Eve in the parks
• Who this experience is best for—and who should skip it

If you’ve ever wondered whether a Disney New Year’s Eve belongs on your bucket list, this episode will help you decide.
