PHOTOS & VIDEOS: New Year’s Eve Fireworks Have Returned to Disney World!

Happy New Year, DFB readers! Whether you’re celebrating at Disneyland, Disney World, Disney Springs spots like Raglan Road or the Edison, or at home, this is a festive night full of fireworks and fun.

Cinderella Castle

To kick off the new year, Disney World has brought back special fireworks in Magic Kingdom and EPCOT. Today, we’re giving you a first look at Disney World’s New Year’s Eve fireworks as we welcome in 2022!

We arrived at Magic Kingdom at about 5PM and the crowds were already there!

Some guests were already saving a spot for the early showing of Disney Enchantment that night.

Waiting for fireworks

Disney Enchantment started early around 6:30PM to give guests plenty of time to visit attractions or grab a snack before the midnight show!

While we waited for Enchantment to begin, we grabbed our 2022 ears and enjoyed the view.

Our excitement grew as the sun started to set! We’re so close to 2022!

Following the first fireworks show, the party started on the Cinderella Castle stage!

The DJ was playing some bops including this old chestnut… . Sorry if you JUST got this song out of your head!

Since we had plenty of time before the countdown to New Year’s Eve, we decided to take a stroll around the park where we saw the dance party in Tomorrowland!

Then we made our way over to Frontierland for yet another fun dance party!

Around Cinderella Castle, people started gathering, eagerly awaiting the fireworks! This is the view an hour before the fireworks started.

Only 10 minutes until showtime!

Wow, it’s busy!

Lots of people!

Time to countdown! 5…4…3…2…1!
