As Disney World continues its phased reopening, they have made adjustments along the way to accommodate anticipated crowds, especially on weekends, where crowds have seemed to get much busier than before.
One of the ways Disney has made additional accommodations is by extending their park hours, which has become an increasingly common practice in recent weeks.
We can now confirm via Disney World’s website that certain park’s hours have been extended on weekends through October 25th. Previously, we had reported that hours at the parks were extended through Monday, October 12th, which is a holiday weekend.
For the weekends of October 16th-18th, and the weekends of October 23rd-25th, the following parks have their hours extended:
Magic Kingdom: 9AM-8PM (extended by 2 hours in the evening; normally 9AM-6PM during the week)
EPCOT: 11AM-9PM (extended by 2 hours in the evening; normally 11AM-7PM during the week)
Disney’s Animal Kingdom: 8AM-6PM (extended by 1 hour in the morning and 1 hour in the evening; normally 9AM-5PM during the week)
As of this writing, the hours at Disney’s Hollywood Studios remain the same at 10AM-7PM.
We’ll continue to check in on the latest park hours at Disney World and will update you so you can accurately plan your visit to the theme parks!
