Whew! What a week it’s been in Disney World!
We started seeing Halloween decorations in Magic Kingdom, got the results of the Quarter 3 earnings call for the Walt Disney Company, and saw tons of new merchandise, too! But now as this week is coming to an end, it’s time to look ahead to next week with a look at what the Disney World park hours and Park Pass Reservation availability look like for the week of August 14th.
Magic Kingdom Park Hours
Next week, Magic Kingdom‘s park hours are a little all over the place. The park is open from 9AM-11PM on August 14th, 15th, 17th, and 20th, but has reduced hours and is only open from 8AM-6PM on August 16th and 19th due to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. On August 18th, the park is open from 9AM-7PM. You will want to make note of this if you are planning to visit Magic and don’t have a park hopper and were hoping to stay in the parks late on these nights!
There will be Extended Evening Hours for select Disney World Resort hotel guests on August 17th from 11PM to 1AM.
EPCOT Park Hours
EPCOT is open from 8:30AM to 9PM every single day next week.
The park will host Extended Evening Hours on August 15th from 9PM-11PM.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios Park Hours
Much like EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios will also be open the same hours every day next week.
You’ll be able to head to Hollywood Studios next week between 8:30AM-9PM every day.
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Park Hours
Disney’s Animal Kingdom also has the same hours every day next week.
Animal Kingdom will be open from 8AM-8PM every day.
Park Pass Reservation Availability
Now it’s time to take a look at Park Pass Reservation availability for next week! Every Disney World guest needs to make a Park Pass Reservation in order to be able to get into the Disney World parks. For theme park ticket holders, all four parks are available on August 14th and August 20th. From August 15th-17th, all parks are available except for Magic Kingdom. On August 18th, Hollywood Studios is unavailable, and on August 19th, both Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios are unavailable.
Park pass reservation availability is the same for select Disney World Resort hotel guests as theme park ticket holders. All parks are available on August 14th and 20th, with only Magic Kingdom unavailable from August 15th-17th. Hollywood Studios is the only park unavailable on August 18th and on August 19th both Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios are unavailable.
For guests who have an Incredi Pass, next week is completely wide open with every park available.
Guests who have a Sorcerer Pass also have wide open availability next week.
The Pirate Pass has some more blockout dates than the first two, but every park is still available for this pass next week, as well.
And finally, we have the Pixie Dust Pass. The Pixie Dust Pass has the weekends blocked out, but other than that, every day next week is available.
