It’s been a difficult week in Florida with Hurricane Ian (later downgraded to Tropical Storm Ian) wreaking havoc statewide.

Disney World closed for two days on September 28th and 29th, leaving many visitors with plans this weekend and next week feeling uncertain. Disney reopened on September 30th and resumed letting guests check into hotels as of 3PM, we’re taking a look at next week’s Park Pass Reservations, which are required for entering a Disney Park.

Magic Kingdom Park Hours

Let’s start with Magic Kingdom, which is scheduled to be open from 8AM to 6PM on October 2nd, 4th, 6th, and 7th. The reduced hours are due to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, which is scheduled from 7PM to 12AM on those dates.

October 3rd, 5th, and 8th will return to regular hours of 9AM to 11PM, and Extended Evening Hours (for qualifying Disney World Resort hotel guests) are scheduled on October 5th from 11PM-1AM.

EPCOT Park Hours

EPCOT’s hours will be the same every day next week, opening from 8:30AM to 9PM.

Qualifying hotel guests can take advantage of Extended Evening Hours on October 3rd from 9PM to 11PM.

Disney’s Hollywood Studios Park Hours

Like EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios will be open from 8:30AM to 9PM from October 2nd to October 8th.

Park hopping is allowed in Disney World after 2PM, and you must have a Park Pass Reservation to be able to Park Hop. With both Hollywood Studios and EPCOT having the same park hours, it makes it easier to travel between the parks via the Disney Skyliner.

Disney’s Animal Kingdom Park Hours

In Disney’s Animal Kingdom, the park will be open from 8AM to 8PM on October 2nd, 3rd, 6th, 7th, and 8th. .

On October 4th and 5th, things change a bit, and the park will be open from 9AM to 7PM.

Park Pass Reservation Availability

It’s time to review Park Pass Reservation availability for next week. For visitors with Theme Park Tickets, there are quite a few dates with full parks. Magic Kingdom is sold out from October 3rd to the 8th, and Disney’s Hollywood Studios is sold out from October 4th to the 8th.

For qualifying Disney World hotel guests, Magic Kingdom and Disney’s Hollywood Studios are sold out from October 4th to the 8th, with Magic Kingdom also full on October 3rd.

Disney World Annual Passholders have different park pass availability, and you need to review a separate calendar. The Incredi Pass has no blockout dates with open availability next week.

When it comes to the Sorcerer Pass, all four parks are open for reservations next week.

The Pirate Pass is blocked out on October 8th, but otherwise has full park availability from October 2nd to the 7th.
