We are huge supporters of planning ahead for your Disney World trip, but what about planning ahead by over 20 years?
Main Street, U.S.A.
Well, if you are a fan of solar eclipses, you may want to consider planning a Disney World trip for August 12th, 2045.
On August 12th, 2045, there will be a total solar eclipse that will be able to be seen in Disney World. That’s right, if you have ever dreamed of seeing a solar eclipse on Main Street, U.S.A. in Magic Kingdom, this is your chance!
The path of the 2045 eclipse
We were able to see a partial solar eclipse at Disney World earlier this year. At the peak of the eclipse, the sun was only about 57% obscured in Orlando. However, in just over 20 years from now, we will be able to see a TOTAL solar eclipse.

That means that the sun will be completely obscured by the Moon, and it will end up looking like it is dark in the middle of the day. On August 12th, 2045, the total solar eclipse will begin around 12:28PM and will last until around 12:34PM. For about 5 minutes, Disney World will be in darkness, and we can’t wait to experience it.

While solar and lunar eclipses usually happen multiple times each year, you can only see a total solar eclipse anywhere on Earth about once or twice per year. And being able to see a total solar eclipse at Disney World on Main Street, U.S.A. is a once-in-a-lifetime situation.
