This summer, Volcano Bay Nights will return on select dates from May 3rd through August 21st. This exclusive after-dark party is limited-capacity, meaning you’ll have shorter lines for rides. It also features the Beach Bash at Waturi Beach with a live DJ and character meets with popular DreamWorks pals from Shrek and Madagascar.
