Disney4me Posted August 28 Report Share Posted August 28 We got to experience a very special event recently! Moonlight Magic We went to Disney Vacation Club’s exclusive event for members, Moonlight Magic, at Hollywood Studios. Moonlight Magic events are complimentary for members and take place at different parks throughout the year. Members can sign up and reserve their spots on the Disney Vacation Club Website. We are so grateful that we got to check out this event that gives Disney Vacation Club members and their families a chance to enjoy attractions, special character interactions, entertainment, and snacks after hours! As we mentioned, Moonlight Magic is for Disney Vacation Club members and can be compared to a Disney After Hours event—except this one is free! Park capacity is limited, which means ride wait times stay low throughout the night. Moonlight Magic We went to the Moonlight Magic offering in Hollywood Studios, and the event lasted from 9:30PM to 12:30AM, after the park closed to the general public. Unlike other After Hours events, this event does not grant you early admission into the park. Moonlight Magic in Hollywood Studios First, we got our map and wristbands! Wristband The map was specially made for the event! Map for Hollywood Studios Moonlight Magic We were even given snack coupons that we could use throughout the night. Just like other After Hours events, you can get unlimited ice cream and other snacks. BUT these snack certificates allowed us to get qualifying food and drink items that were part of the Disney Dining Plan at select dining locations. This is another huge perk of this free event! Snack Coupons We made sure to get lots of ice cream! Free ice cream! Specialty entertainment offerings included this DJ who was set up in front of Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway. DJ Of course, we also spent the night finding all the cool character meet-and-greets! We got to see Moongirl from Moongirl and Devil Dinosaur, some of our favorite monsters from Monsters Inc., Mickey and Minnie in their Halloween best, and even Jawas from Star Wars! Breea and the Jawas Seeing George Sanderson was a huge surprise! Hey, Monsters! Mickey and Minnie greeted in front of Hollywood and Vine. Mickey and Minnie are ready for Halloween! As expected, wait times were super low throughout the night since attendance is limited. Check out those low waits! Look at how low the wait time for Rise of the Resistance was! 10 minutes for stand-by is almost unheard of! Only 10 minutes for Rise! If the night could not get any better, we even got to see a special showing of Fantasmic! Fantasmic! at Moonlight Magic The park was pretty empty throughout the night, so it really did feel like we had the park to ourselves at some points.
