Magic Kingdom to Close at 5:30 p.m. on May 13 for Private Conference Buyout

The evening is reserved for the SAP Sapphire & ASUG conference’s private buyout with a Dave Matthews Band concert.

Overview

  • Regular guests may visit during daytime hours but must exit by 5:30 p.m., with no access to the private event.
  • Conference materials list a Celebration Night inside the park from about 7:30 to 11:30 p.m. for attendees only.
  • The headliner is The Dave Matthews Band performing in front of Cinderella Castle for the conference crowd.
  • Visitors are advised to move park days or adjust any post‑5:30 p.m. Magic Kingdom dining and confirm hours in the My Disney Experience app.
  • Early‑closure dates often produce lighter daytime waits, and guests can pivot to EPCOT’s Luminous or Hollywood StudiosFantasmic! for evening entertainment.
