May 2016 Disney World park hours adjusted and Hollywood Studios fireworks times added


For a stress-free Disney or Universal Studios vacation, let the FREE expert planners at Royal Carriage Vacations take care of every detail including dining reservations, applying discounts, and onboard cruise credit.


Disney World has made an update to its May calendar that may affect your upcoming trip.  I’ve posted all the adjustments to my May 2016 Crowd Calendar to help you with your planning.

Hollywood Studios park hours were extended many dates in May, Star Wars – Symphony in the Stars Fireworks were added for many dates and a couple of Memorial Weekend dates get a 2nd Fantasmic! showing.  Animal Kingdom extended its hours for May 28th.  Could this be a hint that Rivers of Light will begin that weekend?

Is this the old Star Wars fireworks or the new Star Wars fireworks?

Planning our first trip for May this year has been exhausting. Yet another disappointment - there will be no fireworks on our HS day (May 14). We have fantasmic dining package and I'll keep checking but I highly doubt that we can switch days. No ROL, no Star Wars weekend, and now no SW fireworks. I wonder what else will change in 3 weeks. Just so disappointed.

I am right there with you Sara. I feel like I'm better off just booking a trip a month out so that I don't have any expectations.
