New Years Eve 2016 at EPCOT

Today we have the first of our New Years Updates, the first from EPCOT at Walt Disney World. 
​
It was a busy yet fun night as we rang in the new year with fireworks, DJ's, more fireworks, more DJ's and lots and lots of people.

200 minute line for Test Track as of 8:45pm.

Dj stage with a countdown clock on Spaceship Earth in Future World. ​

People camped out for a prime viewing spot for the fireworks at midnight. ​

Dance party in the U.K.!

The New Year bar and menu in France.

The Morocco bar is the best themed pop up bar so far! Very cool!

Japan bar and menu.

We are about to experience the Silent DJ Groove in Japan!

So fun! Silent DJ Groove is awesome. 2 different DJs to choose from. Everyone is having a blast! ​

Still dancing away to the hits in Japan!

Moved on to America, where there's another dance party happening at the American Gardens Theatre.

Lasers and dancing in Italy!

Yeahhhh, Epcot is a little busy...

Any guesses to how long they've been camped out for the fireworks? ​

China is lit!! ​

Don't care about the fireworks? Frozen Ever After is only a 30 minute wait! ​

Loved the fire and fog at the dance party in China!

People camped out on the lawn in Future World for the fireworks.

IllumiNations has begun. New Year's Eve countdown finale fireworks soon! ​

IllumiNations is over, time for New Year's Eve countdown! ​

The Epcot New Year's Eve fireworks were amazing! Definitely one of their best shows.
