For the first time ever Disney's Night of Joy was not held inside the Magic Kingdom, but instead was held at Disney's Hollywood Studios (formerly the Disney-MGM Studios Theme Park).  The park was open for group admission at 4:00p.m. and at 7:00p.m. for individual tickets. The park closed at 1:00am.  (all times are subject to change without notice).  The local Orlando radio station z88.3 broadcast live from the park.  (z88.3 website has more information here).  All attendees were give a pass card at the end of the event that allowed for a digital download album from amazon.com.  Unfortunately, the download was not of Night of Joy's live performances, but a sample of various Christian artists.

(note: this is much fewer attractions than ever operating during Night of Joy due to it being held at Disney's Hollywood Studios instead of the Magic Kingdom.  Wait times for all attractions during the event were much higher than ever at the Magic Kingdom.  The number of stage venues is also the smallest Night of Joy has had, which means much larger crowds at all venues).

All performances are subject to change without notice.

According to Walt Disney Guest communication the times listed as 7:15 have already been changed to 7:30.  Since that is not what is in Disney's pres releases I am leaving the current printed times.
