One thought on “New Years Eve at Walt Disney World

  1. I was there for New Year’s Eve 2005-2006, and the biggest party then was at Epcot. At 6pm, they started handing out free top hats and blowers, and the lines went incredibly fast, The crowds were typical of that time of year, and it was extremely crowded. We left before midnight, and watched the fireworks from our hotel. We were staying off property that year out behind Animal Kingdom. From the second floor of our hotel, we ended up with a great view of the midnight fireworks from all 3 parks. It was pretty cool.
