Magic Kingdom. After the fireworks, my tradition is to sit on the bench by the train station just watching people exiting the park.

So I love doing parks at night, I always think a park takes on a different character once the sun goes down. But for this evaluation, I thought about which park improves the most from its daytime counterpart. I eliminated AK because you can't even do all of its attractions as it still is an animal park as well, so it's not as good as during the day. MK and Epcot are both lovely at night, but they also look great during the day, and I am not sure the castle looks better with lights on it or the natural sun. That leaves me with HS, I think the Star Wars area definitely looks nicer and more interesting at night, Toy Story land is not as insufferable, as the sun is not blazing down, and the old Hollywood streets and definitely the Tower of Terror look best at night. So my vote is HS.

Magic Kingdom. Especially when Cinderella Castle's lit up at night.

They all are great because the lighting and atmosphere changes the parks to a whole new experience. But MK has always been my favorite to stroll through at night. The Castle adds a lot especially when we stay for the goodnight kiss.

Magic Kingdom is stunning esp Tomorrowland from the astro orbiters or people mover.

Epcot is also stunning (a close second), though it is heavily dependent on space ship earth.

I would say MK for overall beauty.

In reality Disney knows how to light its parks, and all of them are stunning at night. Its the best time to stop and just look around and just soak in how beautiful it is and how lucky you are to be in that moment at that exact time.

I remember being at AK when it was closing while the sun was still up, and thought that Pandora was def made for night time.

I think all parks look amazing at night.

My favorite was Magic Kingdom during the holidays with the dreamlights. Sadly, now that they've been gone for a few years, I don't know if they will be coming back.

AK because it is such a rare thing; you only get to really see it at night a few months out of the year, sadly.

I have some great memories with the kids walking around a mostly empty Galaxy's Edge at night and building lightsabers late at night, so Hollywood Studios gets my vote.

I voted MK cause it is just breathtaking at night. But I do think Encanto and Indiana Jones will add a lot to AK’s nighttime ambiance.

 

[vikescaper]

I went with MK because of the lighting and atmosphere.

I have 2…there’s nothing like riding the Peoplemover or Astro Orbiter at MK at night or even the nighttime show (whichever one is running)…
The second is walking through WS at night…FWIW, it’s just SO much better at night…SSE looks great too!

I love both of these parks at night, too, but I would flip the two parks.

Mk
So many classic lands

For me it was always Magic Kingdom when the electric light parade was happening and fireworks, Close second would be EPCOT

I like that idea. Add a Starbucks and that would be perfect.
