Guests can take part in Disney World's awesome "Disney After Hours" opportunity, which allows park goers to have the Magic Kingdom and select rides to themselves. The ticket allows park entry starting at 7 p.m. (which gives you time to see the "Happily Ever After" nightly fireworks show). Guests can stay in the park until 11 p.m. — and some nights to 12 a.m! After Hours dates are Jan. 19, 26, and 30, Feb. 8 and 15, and March 1 and 8.
