What Does It Include?
With Villains After Hours, you get three hours of access to the Magic Kingdom. Disney sells a limited number of tickets, so the wait times for attractions are much shorter than usual.

What Is The Entertainment?
The event includes entertainment that is exclusive to the event, including the Villains Unite The Night show at Cinderella Castle.

In addition, Disney villains parade down Main Street USA twice each evening, including Maleficient the steampunk dragon, Ursula, and Gatson on horseback.

Disney offers many different treats that are exclusive to the event, including these delicious Voodoo Magic cake pops.

In addition to special treats that you can purchase, the event includes unlimited complimentary ice cream, soda, and popcorn – free with party admission! I don’t know about you, but I can put away quite a few Mickey Bars in one evening!

What Merchandise Is Available?
No Disney event would be complete without special merchandise. Check out the list of Villains merchandise.
