March and April just received some pixie dust! Hollywood Studios operating hours have changed for both months! Read on to see what that means for you and what the new changes are!

Park hours have recently been extended for March and April at Hollywood Studios. We knew this was likely to happen, we just didn’t know when. Happy Friday!

Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway is Not Currently Offering FastPass+

But, what does this mean for you?

If your dates have been affected by these extensions, this is a great time to check for newly added FastPasses for your favorite experience.

Additional hours means additional FastPass+ could fall within those hours. Grab those Slinky Dog Dash, Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway, or Millennium Falcon: Smuggler’s Run Fastpasses!

Yep, you read that right! Both Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway and Millennium Falcon: Smuggler’s Run recently became FastPass options! These two plus Slinky Dog Dash are all Tier One attractions.
