Hollywood Studios Will Be Open for Extended Evening Hours This December

As part of the 50th anniversary celebration in Disney World, the parks have introduced both Early Theme Park Entry and Extended Evening Hours for guests staying at the on-site hotels.

Early Theme Park Entry offers guests at all hotels the chance to enter the parks thirty minutes early. However, Extended Evening Hours is a perk reserved only for guests staying at Deluxe Resort hotels, and will allow those guests to enjoy a specific park for an extra two hours after the park closes to the rest of guests.

While we’ve mostly seen Extended Evening Hours offered at Magic Kingdom and EPCOT, in December guests will be able to enjoy Disney’s Hollywood Studios for a little bit longer on two nights!
