Your event ticket allows you to enter the park early starting at 7:00 PM and admission includes ice cream, popcorn, and select beverages. Other food offerings will also be available at each park.
The event costs $125 plus tax for advance purchase and $129 plus tax for day-of purchases. Disney Vacation Club Members and Annual Passholders receive a discounted rate of $95 plus tax.
