ICYMI, Park Hopping is coming back to the Walt Disney World theme parks in the New Year!
Walt Disney World Monorail
Starting January 1st, guests who have purchased Disney World theme park tickets or passes with the Park Hopping add-on option will once again be able to visit more than one park per day. And now we are seeing the new Park Hopper Hours reflected on the Walt Disney World website for the four theme parks!
As a reminder… though previously, guests could hop to a different park at any time of day, things will be different upon the initial return of Park Hopping.
Disney’s Animal Kingdom entrance
Disney has already shared that, while hours of Park Hopping could be earlier or later as time move forward, Park Hopping hours will initially begin at 2PM (as long as capacity allows at the park you wish to visit next).

And this 2PM start does indeed appear to be exactly the case for each theme park: Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom. You can, of course, also see the listed hours for when each park will close, which can help you strategize your Park Hopping further.

Disney has also advised that guests visit the Disney World Park Hours page or use their My Disney Experience app to continue to identify the park hours for Park Hopping moving forward.
You may have some questions about how Park Hopping will work when the option returns. For instance, since you can only reserve a Disney Park Pass for one theme park per day, what does that mean for Park Hopping? Well, we’ve put together a list of Frequently Asked Questions with the return of Park Hopping, and you can also visit our Park Hopping at Walt Disney World page to learn more!
