The nighttime spectacular Happily Ever After will begin earlier at Magic Kingdom starting October 5th. The show will now start at 9 p.m. on select nights instead of its usual 10 p.m. time slot. An adjustment to 9:30 p.m. is already scheduled for August 31st as daylight hours decrease with the changing seasons. This seasonal shift is typical for fall and winter programming adjustments at Disney parks. The approximately eighteen-minute show features fireworks, projections, lasers, and Disney music around Cinderella Castle. Guests planning a fall visit should note this change when building their evening itinerary.
