New Years Eve is one of the busiest days of the year at Magic Kingdom. And as expected the park has temporarily closed after reaching capacity as crowds descend on the most magical place on earth to ring in 2020.
Magic Kingdom is currently at a Phase B capacity closure as of 1pm which affects guests with one day tickets.
“Magic Kingdom Park is not admitting new Guests at this time,”Walt Disney World Guest Service said as you can see in the tweet below:
Hi! We’re experiencing a busy day at the Walt Disney World Resort. We invite you to visit Animal Kingdom Theme Park, Epcot and Hollywood Studios, while Magic Kingdom Park is not admitting new Guests at this time. You can also check availability at 407-560-5000. Thank you! -Emma

Epcot, Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom all remained open to additional guests and those are always a great place to ring in the new year also, but they can reach capacity as well so you might want to get there quickly before they fill up too.
