Magic Kingdom · GOOFY’S TAKE

Rope Drop TRON Tomorrow — Then Stay Till the Fireworks Pop

Advice for 2026-09-13 · Published Sep 12, 2026, 9:01 PM ET

Gawrsh, folks — Magic Kingdom's the healthiest park in the whole resort, and tonight every headliner's running like a clockwork toy. But TRON Lightcycle / Run sat at a gawrsh 95 minutes, nearly double its usual pace, so do what ol' Goofy says: be at the gates at rope drop and head straight for TRON before the crowds pile in. Next up, Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin or Seven Dwarfs Mine Train while the lines are still polite. Here's the bonus — MK closes at 11 PM tonight, the latest on the calendar, so linger. Grab a Mickey treat, grab a spot for Happily Ever After at 9:30, and let those fairy-tale fireworks melt your feet. Even I couldn't goof up that plan!
