 Hey friends tonight. We're hanging out at Epcot and not only is it St. Patrick's Day But it's the return of moonlight magic tonight, and I'm so excited to bring you guys along with me We're gonna see some super rare characters eat some free food drink some green beer and a couple other surprises And just have an amazing night at Epcot any hoos. Let's go do this Moonlight magic is a special after hours event for Disney Vacation Club members and tonight It's back for the first time in over two years, and it's from 10 p.m. Till 1 a.m. And it's really awesome because there's almost no lines for rides You get to eat all the food you want for free like Mickey premium bars and even like fish and chips sometimes they offer They have super rare character meat and greets and in the past they used to put on a special firework show So I'm excited to see what they're offering for the first time back in over two years If you do attend one of these events you do not need a part-ticket or a theme park Reservation and you can get into the park as early as 6 p.m.. Even though the event doesn't start till 10 You get to come in at 6 o'clock and enjoy everything and then once the event kicks off That's when all the special things happen All right wrist banded up. I like how it's green for St. Patrick's Day Excellent. Thank you And here is the event details for tonight Character sightings from 10 p.m. To 12 30 keep an eye out for some of your favorite Disney villains throughout the park And then they have an event DJ Musicians from 10 30 to 12 30 a.m. And then a Disney vacation club member welcome home moment at 11 and 12 It doesn't look like they're doing the special firework show that they normally do down here They have all the attractions that are going to be open for tonight's event Remy's ratatouille adventure is on there So it's going to be amazing to see what the wait time is to ride that like you know normally It's been super busy, but I have a feeling it's going to be a walk on tonight And then if you look on the back of it food and beverage all you care to enjoy Mickey premium bars are Included with this and then they give you some delectable delight vouchers where you can get food from different places All around the park including like some of our favorite go-to spots Another cool thing that they're offering is a free Disney vacation club popcorn bucket with popcorn in it Of course, and that is a part of the voucher system So when you come in they'll give you a book of vouchers and they're good for the snacks all around the world showcase And the popcorn bucket and I'm excited. I want to see what the popcorn bucket looks like Right here is the voucher booklet and it looks like you get three vouchers or three different snacks Including that popcorn bucket So if you don't want to use if you don't want the popcorn bucket You can actually use it to get another snack around world showcase And they have times where you can buy things and I'm so excited because some of the places on here is good like the Norway Pavilion the bakery and then at sunshine seasons you can get stuff and Anything that's marked with the snack credential kind of like the Disney dining plan. Happy to see that back The Mickey premium bars and fruit bars are not included in the vouchers. Those are just endless You can have as many Mickey premium bars as you want But now we're gonna start making our way in we're gonna head back to world showcase because like I said it is St. Patrick's Day, so I have to go get a green beer at the Rosen crown Can I just tell you guys I am so excited to see what characters are gonna be out tonight all of my all-time favorite Character meet and greets that I've got to do inside the parks have happened during moonlight magic and they literally have the best They have the best character meet and greets. I remember one time I got to meet like for Ewoks and I thought that was so amazing getting to meet oogie boogie Like they have so many super rare characters, and I'm so excited. I am pumped for that I'm also really excited to see what cool snacks. We're gonna get to try You know I mean they do have some really interesting spots on here And plus we're gonna be eating our fair share and Mickey premium bars. I feel like it's kind of a Standard you got to eat as many Mickey premium bars as you can especially when they're free I'm also really excited that the fact that the first moonlight magic is on St. Patrick's Day So we're gonna get to have some green beer at the Rosen crown They're even dying like the slushes over in France green and they have margaritas that are green over in Mexico They're going all out Epcot for St. Patrick's Day is kind of my go-to I've been coming here for five years to actually have a green beer one time I came in with 20 green fedoras, and I remember I was handing them out to everybody so I kind of really am excited for this It's so awesome to be on the lookout for the Disney dining plan logo again You know what I mean because that's anything that has the little DDP on there is Something that we can use our voucher for so if I wanted to I can get the maple popcorn here In Canada, which is a really good choice, but I think I'm gonna wait I Feel like it is the perfect temperature all right now for St. Patrick's Day Around World Showcase, and I love how we got the music going already. It's gonna be a fun night There we go. We made it to the Rosen crown, and I am so excited. Look, there's actual line today But usually it's actually been quiet. It's still grabbing go so we can't sit in there and actually drink But at least we can grab it and go I always feel bad for the bartenders working hard and you'll see their hands They're gonna be so green from all the dye. All right, here we go. Look at that. There's the green dye fancy How many times did you have to wash your hands today? Did they stay a little bit green not too bad not too bad And I ran into some friends and cheers St. Patrick's Day. Look at that first green beer of the season I wish we could just sit in here and drink our green beers all night I probably wouldn't leave but we have to take it out. It is grab-and-go, but look how green it is And right here is my favorite garbage can with a view. Look at that. I love it Green beer in hand and we're just enjoying the day It is so funny seeing so many people just walking around with green beers And like I said, I think they're doing the green slushes over in france So we might actually go over there and partake in one a little bit later on But we're gonna finish up this bad boy Look at that and it's so funny because your hands get dyed But they said it's just really concentrated on its own But once it goes in the beer it gets diluted very quickly But either way, I like it doesn't change the texture or the flavor at all. It's just kind of green Now that we've had some green beer I think it's time we make our way over to the france pavilion and get ourselves a green grand marnet A green grand marnet either that or they have the other one I think they're dying a green too either way We got to keep it green just for st. Patrick's Day And all we're doing is basically waiting until moonlight magic starts You know what I mean because that's where we're gonna see all the characters So maybe we'll watch a little bit of harmonious a little bit later on I'm trying to like predict on what characters are going to be here tonight I'm pretty sure we're going to see oogie boogie But I'm really hoping that we get to see the hyenas from the lion king I got to meet them at magic kingdom one time for moonlight magic And you got to meet all three of the hyenas Like the ones that are dancing in the boutou parade And if they're here tonight, I'm going to lose it I wish that they would give us a map that lets you know Where all the characters are going to be at They don't and they don't even tell you where they're going to be at So basically this is going to be a guide for any future Epcot moonlight magics In case you do want to find out where they're going to be Of course they say world celebration near imagination And then world discovery near test track And then various locations around world showcase After we get our green slushie here in France We're going to start trying to find spots That we can use our little vouchers at to get something to eat When I was walking through the UK I wanted to stop at the fish and chip stand It was marked with the DDP But they're only doing chips so just french fries Like snack credits Basically anything that was a snack credit on the Disney dining plan There it is look at that There is the green slush right there I don't think it's the grand marnet one though I don't think because I can see the orange one over here So it's probably not the grand marnet this must be the gray goose one So it's a green gray goose A green gray goose that's even a little bit more of a tongue twister And here it is Look at this fancy little drink It kind of looks yellow But it is green it's just not that green Because technically the gray goose is like that citron Like lemon gray goose But I just had to get it look at it looks so fancy So cheers happy St. Patrick's Day Slanche It looks a lot greener inside the slush maker there But this one kind of looks like Still a little yellow Now it can't go full on green But I mean they can do it with the beer so I'm not too sure why I still like it though I am so surprised on how well this is staying frozen Like it's not melting fast at all It's been several minutes I would even say 10 minutes And I'm kind of just casually sipping away And also as it melts it kind of fills it back up You know what I mean? So it's really enjoyable I really do like this Now that we got the St. Patrick drinks out of the way It's starting to get dark out And it's getting a little bit closer to moonlight magic I like how they give it like an hour in between So like the park closes at nine And it'll give time for everyone to actually leave the park And the only people that are allowed to stay or get on rides Are the ones that have the green little wristbands for moonlight magic And then all the festivities come out So I'm super pumped Somebody said there was some Halloween like Spooky-ish like displays over by figment So I think we're gonna start in future world And make our way around world showcase And like I said I want to see every single villain possible We're gonna start making our way back up through future world And I noticed that they added these balloons at basically every country So maybe we'd be looking at a villain in each country What would Canada's villain be? You know what I mean? It's so funny I don't know Because they don't give you like official map map So everything's kind of a big mystery Holy moly it got super crowded here I don't even know where to go The fireworks didn't even start yet Like this looks like an after fireworks crowd Doesn't it? This is the pre fireworks crowd Look at this Now I kind of formulated a plan We're gonna watch a little bit of harmonious And then we're gonna go to imagination side And start there because A they have the special Disney Vacation Club popcorn bucket over there And B they have a character like Halloween area set up So we'll do imagination and then make our way around world showcase Hitting every single country And then ending over by test track Where the other character meet and greet it I kind of got a plan We're gonna make our way up to the land Because the land is still open The park is officially closed Everything's shut down But the land is open till 11 o'clock For anyone staying for moonlight magic So we're gonna be able to go in As we made our way over to the land You can see the Halloween set up here And this is definitely gonna be boogie boogie And there's a whole hour before they come out And look at the line already Boogie boogie is a pretty popular character And then also the popcorn bucket for the moonlight magic Which is free Something you don't have to pay for There's a line going all the way back to space to birth I don't get it And there's multiple locations So I think we're gonna wait We're not gonna get our popcorn bucket here Or and we'll wait until after I kind of right now Just want to go use one of my food vouchers Inside sunshine seasons here Because like I said That's still open for anyone that's staying for the moonlight magic There we go We gotta do the check The check Check check Wristband check And then we get to go inside Look at that I feel like it might be a little bit busy inside here Because everybody's gonna be coming here While they wait until 10 o'clock We get a whole hour We can ride soren if we wanted to There's no wait for soren But I wanna get a snack Looks like there is absolutely no wait for living with the land Look at that It's just sitting there Dormit Nobody in line And a lot of people actually over in seasons Looks like they got some chocolate chip cookies They're still selling beer and soda and stuff like that Oh and then also some grab and go snacks over here But it doesn't look like they have a lot of stuff here Like it doesn't seem like they have a lot of anything really Looks like this is just about it right here Some veggies grapes and apple Some salad dressing packets You know might wanna get some kens But I don't know Okay so a quick update There's a special dessert That's coming out at 10 o'clock But only at 10 o'clock And that is something you can't use with your voucher You have to pay for it I think it's like $5.99 So I got myself a little croissant A little croissant Just so I can have something to hold me over Until we get to Norway Because I think I'm going to use my voucher in Norway And I don't want to wait in here until 10 Because I'd rather be out there in line to meet a character Or get the popcorn bucket So I think we're going to eat our croissant And then move out It does look like the wait time for Soren right now is 25 minutes 25 minutes isn't too bad Especially because everyone's going to be here Everyone's going to be in the land right now Probably waiting until 10 o'clock So there's going to be a lot of people at Soren Give it about like a half an hour And it's probably going to be a walk on But I think we're going to take our croissant on the go All right, it looks like here comes Uggie Boogie I love it I love Uggie Boogie because he walks in Like so funky Look at it Look at his Uggie Boogie strut right here He's teasing us Look at this There he is Oh, too good There he is Okay, Uggie Boogie is alive Look, did you see the way he was coming in like that? I love it And now the music's going And I think we're going to start making our way into World Choke I thought about it And I want to wait to get my popcorn bucket Because I'd rather get it in Canada When you get the maple popcorn Instead of the regular popcorn here So that's a smart idea But wait Before we actually make it into World Showcase I see a bunch of people walking out of here With some Mickey premium bars So we're going to get some Is that where the Mickey premium bars are? It is Oh boy All you got to do is follow the trail of Mickey bar rappers And you'll find them Ah, very nice Oh, we're coming in We're coming in hot Oh, that's what I needed Now these precious beauties are endless You can eat as many as you want Ears first Scientifically How many Mickey bars do you think I can eat Without getting an upset stomach? But if you can put a number on it Let me know in the comments I think I can eat five Now I'm not saying I'm going to eat five But I think I can eat five without getting an upset stomach Let me know what you guys think though I really want some food food though I had the croissant and the Mickey bars But I should have gotten the french fries When I had the chance over at the fish and chip stand I mean you can only eat so many of them Before you want something like salty You know what I mean or savory But I still love my Mickey bar Looks like they got a little Villains dance party right here As soon as you walk into World Showcase And I'm pretty sure I saw the evil queen When I was walking over here So you have to go check that out Okay yes So I did see the evil queen And I ran into a friend who told me Cronk is here tonight And I am so excited because Cronk Is on the list of characters I've never met before So we're going to be lining for Cronk But I love how they have the social distance Selfie areas right here So you don't actually have to wait in a queue You can just come up and take a selfie And look at her back there Look at her cauldron in the back Holy moly They're really going all out Oh she's doing something to that cauldron That is amazing So my original plan was to head towards Canada And then come out on this side Because I wanted to go to test track But when I heard Cronk was here I'm like I gotta go I gotta go Oh my lord There he is Look at that I love it Holy moly Pull the lever Cronk Pull the lever Wrong lever I love it You're the best Thank you There was no line to meet Cronk Can you believe that Nobody was waiting to meet Cronk Oh my lord This is it Look at Wow It gets better and better and better Holy moly Just randomly kind of fangirling over meeting Cronk And then Sheriff Nottingham just come Strolling out of the door waiting to see you I don't even know That is the best thing I think I've ever seen Look at that So crazy awesome I don't think I've ever seen Sheriff Nottingham either So this is a first for me as well What you got in that bag there Are you oh you want some money That's oh a photo cost some money huh I see I'm gonna tax the tax the photography Yep he knows Thank you Thank you So there wasn't any lines for any of the characters really But take a look at the line to get food From the Norway bakery Look at that That is a long long line Also I noticed that it's cut off now So yeah it looks like it ends here in Norway And then it ends in France over on that side So we're gonna we're gonna back shoe We're gonna make a whole shoe or a U We're gonna do a U turn Oh I just figured it out they're alternating So we've seen Cronk and then Sheriff Nottingham came out And before when we were walking over here The queen the evil queen was here And now the old hag is out So they're alternating Look at her go back there I feel like I'm really rooting for the old hag here She is terrifying Listen to the music they're playing right now That is amazing Oh my lord I love the fact that the main street Electrical Parade was playing here at Epcot Look how crazy is that Look at this we got Anas, John and Gideon here as well I'm really loving all the characters this is really fun Oh no I've come upon the Canada popcorn stand And things aren't looking any better We don't talk about Bruno Look at this holy moly Water line Because this is also a snack spot So you can get a snack here Wow Oh but it's dual I think it's dual side It is dual side so it goes this way too Holy macaroni This is this is wow Like bread Oh it also looks like Lady Tremaine is here too Wow look at that She doesn't like the music it is really loud She doesn't want to talk about Bruno It is it's pretty bad And now they're playing Power Line are you kidding me Looks like we're coming up on the Queen of Hearts here Look at her I just came to pay my respects to the Queen that's it Thank you so much Yep oh oh I bowed yes thank you Yes absolutely I appreciate it Off with their heads Yes Nice thank you I got a heart I love the fact the Queen made me bow down to her How funny was that and then she gave me a heart But at 11 o'clock they're supposed to be doing like a welcome home thing Around World Showcase Lagoon So I think we're gonna hang out here and just see what that is I know it's not gonna be a Firewood show But still kind of a little interested I'm not too sure what it is It just said World Showcase Lagoon at 11 and 12 o'clock So might be just an announcement But I figured I'd come down here Nobody's even down here It's just a friend down here Bye friend Good evening and welcome home Disney Vacation Club members family and friends I'm Shannon Cegasti The proud leader of the member experience system Behind Moonlight Magic One of our favorite membership magic events As we gather to enjoy this night filled with cherished characters favorite attractions and delicious treats As Disney Vacation Club presents a magical moment Made just for you Think of it as a thank you card made of music Fountains and lights All of us at Disney Vacation Club Thank you for being here tonight And for being part of our member family We're delighted to like the living for you I'm not quite sure what you say to that Are y'all having a good time out there tonight? Yeah Again welcome home welcome back Okay let's go see what characters are over in the France pavilion there Oh look at little dancing happening here These cast members are the ones that are making the magic tonight Look at that They just had a spaceship earth like remix I don't even know what was happening there The music is starting to be my favorite thing here So now we're going to make our way down to France And we'll see what the wait time for Remy's is See what the character is down here with the character the villain That's me just wanted to come say hello take a video You know hope you don't mind You know see you have the hair on your face rather than your chest like me Oh I got it on the chest too Very nice I find chest there to be the most manly thing ever without you Absolutely well that makes me very manly Very nice That's helped me have you seen Belle tonight I haven't seen Belle Well if there Oh yeah As women tend to do to be getting ready Reading a book Reading a book What's really about marriage Oh well I'm excited well if I do see her I'll make sure to say hello for you As you should would you like a portrait Yes please Oh I did Thank you Okay as I was waiting in line for Gaston I found out pain and panic were here And that is insane because I always wanted to meet them So I am running over there right now I did check to see how long the wait for Remy's Ratatouille Adventure is And it says it's 30 minutes A 30 minute wait for Remy's Ratatouille Adventure But I can ride that any day Only time I can see pain and panic is tonight So that is priority number one We're on the hunt for pain and panic You don't know who pain and panic is It's from one of my all-time favorite Disney movies Hercules And it would even be better if Hades was here I would lose my mind if Hades was here But I don't think he is I'll settle for pain and panic though Looks like Lady Tremaine actually went in And the evil stepsisters came out That's awesome Most of all the meet and greets isn't like a line or anything You just like walk up Take your photos or your videos socially distant And then move along And it really does cut down on some time Like I don't think I've met this many characters in one day Like this is impressive Oh my lord there they are Oh yeah they're going quickly There they go This is too good Just missed pain and panic by like a second I was the next person there and then they took off So I'm gonna wait I'm gonna wait Because I want a good photo with them And I think they're coming back out in just a couple minutes Might as well wait or go do something else and come back That sounds like a better idea Here is a look at the wait times right now It looks like sorens at 30 minutes Remmies 45 minutes Grand Fiesta Tour 15 minutes Everything seems pretty low I mean for the most part Frozen ever after 15 minutes Holy moly Test Track is 40 minutes though But Frozen for 15 minute wait that's mind blowing I still have not used my vouchers for anything Besides a croissant Is that mind blowing I think if I just wait till the end All the lines will die down from the popcorn buckets And if they have a certain amount of vouchers Then that means that they only have a certain amount of popcorn buckets So I don't think they can run out But the lines for the popcorn buckets are still super long though Look at this This is an hour and a half in Yeah because it started at 10 o'clock and it's 11 30 right now So still very long lines to get that popcorn bucket I keep on coming up with these plans But it's not going the way I planned you know what I mean At first I was going to head to Canada Get my popcorn bucket but the lines are crazy And right now I'm just really focused on Making it back to see pain and panic And now I'm going to head on over To future world here To see what the other character is Over by test track Or maybe there's multiple characters But as long as we get back by 12 That's all that matters Oh look at this They have a huge dance party happening over here In the Big Bad Wolf Holy moly the Big Bad Wolf is dancing right now Wow Look at this I like it Wow Little pig little pig let me in That's the way Okay the Big Wolf was awesome And he's rotating out with Captain Hook and Smee But I came back to see pain and panic And I don't know I'm just kind of having a ball Right now with the characters I feel like this is like moonlight magic to me Everything about the characters I wish the hyenas were here Because that would be amazing But the hyenas were really really cool Here they come What the illuminations music This is great Here illumination I've been waiting for you guys all night Yep all night You guys are my favorite And I'm so happy I'm so so happy Yeah look at this Awesome You guys definitely It might be a little panic there I can see it Oh a little bit Nice Yep gotta take a break from the panicking I like it All right let's do a selfie Eh yeah All right Well mission meet pain and panic complete Now let's go get that popcorn bucket There they are These things are like gold tonight here The most long way to think There you go Now we went from popcorn To a Powerade To a Mickey premium bar I don't even know what I'm doing here I'm just gonna eat them all Here it is The popcorn bucket for moonlight magic I'm gonna save the popcorn for later There we go Put a lid on it Because I've got a Mickey premium bar And a Powerade I was too concentrated on getting all the characters I really didn't get to enjoy many Mickey premium bars So this is only my second one Here's first though I don't think I could do it anymore I'm giving up on my Mickey premium bar So I ate one in two ears One full Mickey bar and two ears worth And that's it Gonna have to call it quits Instead I'm gonna switch over to some popcorn And luckily we got in line when we did To get our popcorn bucket Because it is 20 minutes until the event is over And look at the line All for this bad boy right here It's not even a figment Look isn't that crazy Look at that line Holy moly But I guess with that We are gonna call it a night here Thank you to Anthony and Brian And family
