After all, you’ve got to coordinate travel with your stay at a Disney Resort hotel, you’ve got to make theme park reservations to coincide with the tickets you’ve purchased, you’ve got to make dining reservations…the list goes on.
Some guests say that it’s such a stressful process they “need a vacation from planning their vacation,” and we can see why.

Whether you’re visiting Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, or EPCOT, there’s almost always a nighttime spectacular to catch. These spectaculars may consist of lasers, projections, dancing water fountains, and, most iconically, fireworks.
You’ve probably seen Magic Kingdom’s impressive fireworks display and asked yourself, ‘How does Disney perfect something this intricate?’ Well, the answer is prototype testing, which is precisely what’s happening this weekend.
According to a new report, EPCOT will be conducting testing on its pyrotechnics and special effects on September 10. These tests will begin around 11 p.m. after the Disney Park has closed, so guests visiting EPCOT or nearby theme parks should not be affected.

As we mentioned before, Walt Disney World is a vast operation, and it never sleeps. Testing, maintenance, and other interruptions are simply unavoidable, considering the entire Resort is open all year round.
Unfortunately, what we’re saying is that guests shouldn’t expect any compensation or refunds for these disruptions as they’re considered a normal part of Disney World operations.
