Night. MK looks amazing at night, especially in Tomorrowland. AK also looks amazing, with all the different colored lanterns and such.

More rides by day (especially at the beginning of the day) but more magic at night. Night wins!

But there's also shorter lines at night during the parade's and shows like SpectroMagic and Wishes.

No ?, night! I've even made sure that I make reservations after we turn the clocks back if I go in the fall, to give us more time after dark. LOVE THE TWINKLING TREES :ccat:

I would have to go for night - when else can you get the Main Streeet Electrical Parade or Spectromagic?

I wrote in an earlier post I thought the night rules at Disney. I've thought about it and have an exception....I've been to WDW when it was cold and in that case day time is a good time. Although if it's around Christmas the Osborne lights are (and forgive the pun) cool at night with some hot coco. The fake snow starts to look real when it's in the 40s.

Night is definitely better. The whole park is basically one big dark ride. The lighting can be controlled which leads to better themeing.

I vote for night. There's nothing like Disney parks at night. The treehouse is totally cool at night and so isn't the view from it.

This was a very hard call for me. I love both, but I went with day, Because of the beauty, you can see all the details of the park. Even though It's often too hot, no pretty lights or fireworks and there's no awesome 3 hr magic hour blocks. Still the day is some how more magical for me. Now maybe if they brought back the original Light Parade I'd had have to rethink my answer. I still think that someday it will return for a visit.

I'm totally split on this one. I love walking around playing during the day, it's like you're a kid and having fun, but then at night like everyone else says, it's so much more magical. I don't thnk I can choose

I am in the very small 16% daytime vote. I think perhaps if i didn't have a disability that allows me to be affected by lights with motion perhaps my vote would be different. I have never experienced any of the Disney nightime magic you all speak of. But recently have looked on other threads at pictures of what I have been missing and it is truly wonderful. I do believe I would vote for night if I could. I also must say I do so enjoy the warm sun in the daytime as I often visit when it is still cold where I hail from! :)
