    Hi! I can make my dining reservations on 24th August but would like to know the park hours/deluxe evening hours before then to properly plan. What date will the park hours for mid Oct-early Nov be available?

    Welcome to planDisney, Katy! Thanks for sharing your question with us. 

    The Walt Disney World day calendar displays park and event hours, including early entry and extended evening hours, for the next 60 days. That means you can see park schedule information for your vacation dates on the same day that you’re able to make dining reservations. One trick to keep in mind, though, is that if you click the “5-Day View” button, you’ll see hours information for 60 days in advance plus 4 more days. Schedules are always subject to change, but you could check the calendar the day before your advanced dining reservation date to get a peek at park hours for some of your vacation (depending on how many days you’ll be staying). 

    One note about extended evening hours that might help with your planning. Since you’ll be visiting during the spooky season, it’s unlikely that extended evening hours will be scheduled at the Magic Kingdom due to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party (you can find party dates here).

    As you put the finishing touches on your vacation itinerary, make sure you check out the Disney Parks Blog for all details on the special seasonal events, treats, and merch you can expect to see around the resort. They’ve just recently shared the always helpful Foodie Guide for Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, and I’m sure the 2026 EPCOT International Food & Wine guide isn’t too far behind. 

    Katy, I hope you manage to get all your desired dining reservations and that you have a wonderful holiday at Walt Disney World. Pop right back if you have more questions. Your planDisney pals are here to help! 

    Magical travels!
