Tell me about Typhoon Lagoon Moonlight magic

[disland7]

I’m wondering if anyone can tell me their guess for the hours of the typhoon lagoon member moonlight magic in October.

Also when do they announce next year’s events?

If the past is any indication it will be from 8:30 to 11:30. Those were the 2018 hours. (Hopefully I will be there Sept 18!)

IF I remember correctly, this years events were announced last December.

I'm hoping for September 18 also.
Do they let us in earlier than the announced time? What kinds of snacks do they have.
They had an event a few years ago at Typhoon Lagoon, and I'm pretty positive that it started in the afternoon.

I would like to know the answer to those questions as well.

Here are a couple recaps from 2017 and 2018:

8:30 - 11:30 is correct for past events, but they start letting people in by 7:30. Overall it's probably busier than one may expect from such an exclusive party, but not overwhelming. Don't expect to walk in at 8:30 and find unclaimed chairs right at the foot of the wave pool or around Crush N Gusher. There will be seats, but you'll have to wander further toward the back of the park to find them.

If you head right for Crush N Gusher or Miss Adventure Falls (both near front of park) at the start of the event, you'll quickly find lines swelling to 30+ minute waits. Circle back closer to the end when people have started to head home and it's likely to be closer to 10-15 minutes.

Snacks are all-you-can-eat and I don't recall ever seeing them run out...at least not before 11pm or so. It's quite a generous supply. They'll have the full-size Mickey bars sold in the parks plus other ice cream novelties, cookies, bags of chips plus lemonade and water. Other food is available for purchase.

Thanks for the reply and the links I will be reviewing.
