Hi Veronica,
Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel and thank you for asking us another question!
I’ve got a visit to Walt Disney World Resort coming up in the late Fall this year, and the extended hours for
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park weren’t out yet when I had to make my dining reservations. Unfortunately, we still don’t know when (or if) the Park’s hours are going to be extended for the rest of the year. It’s anyone’s guess at this point!
What I did in order to get around this issue was that I just picked a date when we would visit
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Park at night and I made the latest possible reservation for that day. If the nighttime hours come out and that day isn’t included, there is one other day in my touring plan (a second night at Epcot) that I can modify in order to ensure that I get to see the
Tree of Life “awaken” during our visit.
I would highly recommend keeping a close eye on the
Disney Parks Blog in the coming weeks in order to get up-to-the-minute information about nighttime events at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. If the Park’s hours do get extended, they’ll be announced there first.
Have a Magical Day,
Lynne
