Magic Kingdom

New Villains Caravan and More Coming to Disney Villains After Hours

Many Disney fans have enjoyed Disney After Hours as they have the opportunity to experience the magic of the Magic Kingdom after the sun goes down.  Disney Villains After Hours is back with more wicked fun and even more sinister nights at the Magic Kingdom. In 2020, the event will take place for a wicked 24 select nights from February 7th through July 10th!

We had the opportunity to attend the “sinister” this summer, and saw just how popular Maleficent’s journey up and down Main Street USA was.  Due to this popularity,  the Villains’ Cursed Caravan will join Maleficent the dragon as she creeps through the park twice nightly. The wicked procession will feature Gaston, Oogie Boogie, Cruella DeVil, Captain Hook and more! This new addition to the event is sure to be a can’t miss! As a reminder, this event does not include character greetings.

There is more villainous action at the event of course!

  • Hades and Meg from “Hercules” will set the castle stage ablaze in “Villains Unite the Night,” featuring appearances by Jafar, The Queen, Dr. Facilier and Maleficent.
  • During this sinister soiree, guests can dance the night away as a party DJ spins monstrous music on the Cinderella Castle Forecourt stage.
  • Guests can also experience the surprising, villain-inspired enhancements at Pirates of the Caribbean and Space Mountain.
  • As they make their way through each land, guests can strike a pose as they come across sharable photo opportunities scattered throughout the park.
  • Disney Villains After Hours also includes wickedly good food and beverage selections. A few of the new treats this year are Painting the Roses Red (Available at Cheshire Café), a cheesecake mousse with raspberry gelée, red cocoa butter, and buttercream leaves; Body Language (Available at Storybook Treats), a cookies and cream mousse with chocolate cake, glaçage, and meringue tentacles garnished with a chocolate shell; and Five Dozen Eggs Slush (Available at Gaston’s Tavern). A frozen custard with brown sugar topped with whipped cream and garnished with a cinnamon stick.
