Are you visiting Disney World next week? Do you have your Park Pass Reservations booked? Do you have the park hours committed to memory?
If not, it’s time to brush up! It’s time to review all of the critical information you’ll need to anticipate crowds and plan out your days for the week of May 16th.
Disney World Park Hours the Week of May 16th
As we have seen for the past several weeks now, Magic Kingdom will be open daily next week from 8AM-9PM.
EPCOT will be open each day the week of May 16th from 11AM-10PM. The EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival, which runs through July 5th, will also be open each day from 11AM-10PM.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios will be open daily the week of May 16th from 9AM-8PM.
Last but not least, Disney’s Animal Kingdom will be open daily next week from 8AM-7PM.
These hours have been more or less consistent with what we’ve seen in previous weeks! Keep in mind that Park Hopping at each of the four theme parks begins at 2PM these days, given that you have the Park Hopper option added to your ticket and you’ve scanned into the park with which you have a Park Pass Reservation for that day.
