EPCOT has been opening in Disney World at 11AM each morning for quite some time now, but Disney gave park guests an extra hour in October by opening at 10AM each day.

Since there were so many new things — like a new ride and TWO new restaurants — it made sense to give guests a little extra time to get everything done! And, now the early opening has been extended, so if you’re heading into the parks soon, you might get the extra time as well.
EPCOT will open at 10AM each morning from now through November 20th of this year.

The EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival runs through November 20th as well, which means you get a little more time to try out all the tasty snacks and drinks around the park.

Park hopping still begins at 2PM, and the park usually closes at 10PM — though it will close at 9PM on Sunday, November 7th.

Starting on November 21st, the opening times are once again listed as 11AM to 10PM.

And, don’t forget that select days in November also have Extended Evening Hours, which are open to select guests. On those days, guests staying at the Disney Deluxe Resorts or Deluxe Villas (and a few other select hotels) can stay in EPCOT for two extra hours after closing time.

We’ll continue to keep an eye out for more changes to Disney World park hours, so be sure to stay tuned to AllEars for the latest!
