We’ve been doing New Year’s Eve (Eve) at Walt Disney World for as long as we’ve been locals.

(I’m not sure that makes sense, but to my sleep-deprived brain, it’s amusing.) Sorta like feeding Gizmo after midnight, just to see if that might fix the Gremlins outbreak.

Given what that last full NYE at WDW ushered in only a few short weeks later, I’m not sure revisiting the festivities was such a wise move. Just like everyone else, due to circumstances that don’t need rehashing here. Prior to this, it had been a couple of years since we’ve done a proper New Year’s Eve at Walt Disney World. In this report, we’ll share our thoughts and photos & video from the experience, and planning advice for anyone else debating between Magic Kingdom and Epcot for NYE, whether it be tonight or in the future. We spent New Year’s Eve Eve in Magic Kingdom for a “soft opening” of 2022 at Walt Disney World, so to speak.
