If you’re heading to Disney World over the next few weekends, you’ll have some extra time to enjoy the parks!
In early September, the Disney World parks began regularly operating with shorter hours. However, we have seen the hours extended at select parks on certain days.
And if you’re planning on heading out to one of the Disney World parks over the next few weekends, you’re in luck. The hours at all four parks have been extended on weekend days from now through October 12th!
While the operating hours at Magic Kingdom on most days have been 9AM-6PM, the hours have been extended to 9AM-7PM on September 25th-September 27th and October 2nd-October 4th. And the hours are extended even further for the following holiday weekend — 9AM-8PM from Friday, October 9th-Monday, October 12th.
The EPCOT operating hours which have regularly been from 11AM-7PM will be extended to 11AM-9PM on September 25th-September 27th, October 2nd-October 4th, and October 9th-October 12th.
The operating hours at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, which have regularly been 10AM-7PM, have been extended to 10AM-8PM on September 25th-September 27th and October 2nd-October 4th. The operating hours for the following weekend are currently listed as 10AM-7PM, but we’ll keep an eye out for any further updates!
And finally, the operating hours at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, which have regularly been 9AM-5PM, have been extended to 8AM-6PM on September 25th-September 27th, October 2nd-October 4th, and October 9th-October 12th.
We’ll continue to be on the lookout for any additional updates to the Disney World park hours, so stay tuned!
