Disney4me Posted March 3 Report Share Posted March 3 After Hours events have returned to Disney World for 2025 and we couldn’t be more excited! ©Zach Riddley At EPCOT, After Hours is BACK for select nights from February 27th through September 25th, 2025, and we were at the first event of the year. The capacity for these events is limited so folks have easy access to select park attractions — like Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. And, if you’re looking to ride this attraction during After Hours, this is the BEST time to do it. Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is easily the most popular ride at EPCOT right now, and it’s easy to see why! The attraction recently switched from using a virtual queue to a standby line –which has garnered some seriously long waits — but it’s always been a standby line during EPCOT After Hours. And, if you’re hoping to ride Cosmic Rewind during After Hours at EPCOT, you’re gonna want to keep reading! Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind during After Hours Here’s the thing — EPCOT After Hours runs from 10 PM until 1 AM, but folks with tickets can enter the parks as early as 7 PM. When we attended the February 27th event, Cosmic Rewind had a 65-minute wait during the first hour or so. But, things quickly changed, because by 11:50 PM we noticed the wait on the My Disney Experience app had dropped to just 35 minutes. We decided to test it out, and we found that the wait time was spot on! Cosmic Rewind wait during After Hours Even later during After Hours, though, right around the time the event was ending at 1 AM, we headed over to Cosmic Rewind and there was NO wait — we walked right up to where the pre-show started! Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind And, if you’re not planning on going to After Hours, keep in mind that you can take advantage of things like Early Theme Park Entry and Extended Evening Hours depending on what Disney hotel you’re staying at. These offerings allow hotel guests to get a little extra time in the parks before everyone else gets there, and they can make a huge difference when it comes to wait times! Our top tips for avoiding long lines without spending any extra money are to rope drop the parks (get there right when — or before — they open), get in line during meal times or parades and fireworks, or wait until people start leaving for the night!
