The trick to a carefree, easy NYE at Epcot is to get a room at either Yacht Beach BoardWalk Swan Dolphin.
Makes for an incredibly easy getaway post fireworks.

Just arrived at the Dolphin for 2 nights. Seems really busy on property - planning on Epcot - yeah fir walking to the park!!
Last night was a blast and walking back to the dolphin after Epcot fireworks was the best!

It was incredibly fun - spent a lot of time in Italy and America at the DJ parties. Met some wonderful people - but the key was being able to walk to and from Epcot from the hotel and being patient as you moved through the crowds. The CMs did a fantastic job.

I disagree. Epcot is way too much and overwhelming. I prefer magic Kingdom. By 1215am people are tired out. At epcot By 1215am, 50 year old woman and young people were screaming to the top of their lungs drunk. It was nice but dare I say magic Kingdom is more low key. I can't handle the 20 dj parties with the horrible music. But I don't like clubs to begin with so that's a another reason why I didn't like epcot.

I think they closed at 10pm. There were no festivities outside the normal night events.

It closed at 9:00, so it was not too crowded.

That’s a major bummer. We got lucky I guess because we started walking out with the crowd from over by Mexico right after the fireworks and went straight to the car in the Wonder lot. Actually managed to be out of the parking lot by 12:30 but it did look like it was a tough time getting out of the other parking lots.

Well NYE in Epcot was amazing. Have a couple new glow cubes to brin home lol(the cosmo bowls from France). Having a dinner reservation in Japan was perfect- caught the first show at 630 then checked in for dinner (and got to use relatively uncroweded bathroom). Also discover d that the bathrooms right outside IG are clean and no lines! Left my bag with hubs dashed out and back in no fuss.
Missed our early afternoon fastpasses so kept checking for others- managed to snag a FEA FP for 930pm. That ride is NOT worth more than a 3 minutes wait (first time we've been on it).
Slept in- the new beds at CSR are amazing!
Happy New Years!!

Better reserve that room today, if it isn't already too late...

We will book sometime in February when we can see airfare. We have been lucky to spend about a dozen NYE throughout the years at an Epcot Deluxe.

I was in explore. It was deadlock for about an hour. But it was a great night.
