Yeaaaaa....I finally get to be first on a reply :lol:
E-Ride nights happen once in a while in the summer. When they're scheduled, Disney Resort Hotel guests may buy a ticket to them at the front desk of their resort up to 2 days (usually) before the E-Ride night.
You are permitted to stay in the Magic Kingdom for up to 3 hours after normal closing, and there are usually only 5,000 or so people in the park, MAX (compared to 50,000 during a normal day).
Be in the park after 4:00pm and before closing to get your wristband. Then just walk on to one of the 9 or so E-Ticket Rides. They have characters out, some places to eat are open, and you just OWN the park.
So, you have to stay in a Disney Resort and get the ticket at your front desk. You can only use it at the Magic Kingdom, and it's good for 3 hours after closing.

Does disney have any all night events like Grad Night but for familys. I did Grad Nite last year and it was great I was wondering if thats the only time they do an all nighter.
I'm 99.9% sure they do not have any all-night events for familes or day-guests. Grad Nite is pretty much the only thing close to this.
There are many private events during the off-season that take over sections of parks, but nothing that is open to the public.

Please don't tell me they are going to be sold out ON the actually day!!! I didn't know you were able to get them in advance. Can you order them by phone??
We are leaving at 10 p.m. on the 13th and driving all night to get to MK in the morning of the 14th and we planned to do the e-ride night that night. I'm not really sure how to get my tickets, seeing as we won't be able to check into our hotel until that afternoon.
What should I do? You think I should stop at Pop Century before I head to MK in the morning?

You can check into the hotel whenever you arrive, though your room may not be ready. They'll hold your stuff for you and put it in your room so it'll be waiting for you when you get back. All you have to do is check at the desk. When you register tell them you want to buy your E Night tickets. We had ours 3 days in advance. No problems. Hold onto these separately because they look like your room keys/passes. Have fun. :wave:
yeah, I was there on Sunday night for the 3 night extra magic hours from 9-midnight......... 2 hours before the park closes you need to get a wristband..... you can ask anywhere where they are passing these out we got ours at the breezeways.... , you need to show a resort id.......... to prove you are staying in a disney hotel......then you get to stay the extra time........on sunday night it was at Epcot......most of the world showcase was closed expect Norway and Mexico and everything else was open......we got a fast pass for test track and went to universe of energy.......it was a busy night....they do ask before you get on the rides to show the wristbands.....

E-Ride nights are Great!
I think they have changed the list of attractions to 8 from 9, since Alien Encounter is closed.
List of attractions are: Splash Mt, Thunder Mt, Haunted Mansion, Country Bears, Space Mt, Buzz Lightyear, Astro Orbitors, and TTA?
I would recommending you do the E-Ride night. First time I did it, there was nobody in the park. Walked right on everything. Rode Splash twice without getting off, and Thunder twice without getting off.
