Magic Returns for Disney's Extended Evening Hours
We were worried this Walt Disney World Resort perk was losing its magic. Find out the new lineup that has us excited for Extended Evening Hours.
Extended Evening Hours
Guests staying at Deluxe and Deluxe Villa Resorts can experience the parks at night after everyone else has left. This is one of the many great benefits of staying at these high-tier resorts.
Typically, Epcot hosts Extended Evening Hours on Monday, and Magic Kingdom hosts Extended Evening Hours on Wednesday. This has been the case for the last few years, with a few exceptions.
This summer, this schedule shifted quite a bit, changing Extended Evening Hours that were typically offered at Magic Kingdom to Disney's Animal Kingdom for several dates.
New Trend Extended Evening Hours
We do love extra time to enjoy Disney's Animal Kingdom, but this park offers fewer attractions for Extended Evening Hours compared to Magic Kingdom.
Thankfully, we see a shift from Disney's Animal Kingdom, with many Extended Evening Hours dates offered at Disney's Hollywood Studios. This trend continues as Walt Disney World releases park hours into October.
Disney's Hollywood Studios will offer Extended Evening Hours on Friday, August 29th, and 3 dates in September on the 10th, 17th, and 24th. Looking forward to October, Extended Evening Hours are listed for October 1st and 8th.
Possible Shift for Extended Evening Hours
We suspect that additional dates will also be added in October for Extended Evening Hours at Disney's Hollywood Studios. We may see a shift back to Disney's Animal Kingdom in November due to special ticketed Christmas parties at both Magic Kingdom and Disney's Hollywood Studios.
Extended Evening Hours are now offered at Disney's Hollywood Studios for 5 dates
Every week, new park hours are released. We hope that even more Extended Evening Hours dates will be offered at Disney's Hollywood Studios. See our experience during Extended Evening Hours HERE.

Wouldn’t it be nice if they offered these extra hours to guests other than just Deluxe guests?
I mean 1/2 hour early entry isn’t even that great. Especially when Iniversal gives all of their guests a full hour.
Agreed!!!! It would be very nice to have an added perk at the end of the day for all resort guests.
