    where do I find a calendar of open and close times for the parks in December?

    Hiya Roxana,

    Thank you so much for stopping by planDisney with your planning question! I just love that you’re getting a head start on your magical vacation—planning ahead is the best way to make sure every moment of your Disney day is filled with pixie dust. Knowing park hours ahead of time can really help you decide which day to watch fireworks at Magic Kingdom, catch the Festival of the Holidays at EPCOT, or even plan around those extra–merry Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party nights!

    So, let’s jump right into your question. You can find all of the park hours by visiting the Hours & Events Calendar on the Walt Disney World website. Simply change the date at the top of the calendar, and you’ll see each park’s opening and closing times for that day. You can also find park hours right in your My Disney Experience app—on the home screen, just tap the section that says “Park Hours,” and it’ll show you the daily schedule at a glance.

    If you’re staying at a Disney Resort, don’t forget to take advantage of Early Theme Park Entry! It’s a great way to start your day with a little extra magic and lighter crowds—my family and I love using those 30 extra minutes to hop right on our favorite attractions before the parks get busy.

    And since you’ll be visiting in December, you’re in for such a treat! Be sure to stop by EPCOT’s  Festival of the Holidays—it’s one of my favorite festivals of the year. From holiday kitchens with delicious festive bites to the joyful storytellers around World Showcase (and let’s not forget the beloved Cookie Stroll ), it’s truly the most wonderful time of the year at Disney World!

    Roxana, I hope this helps you plan your magical days. If you have any more questions, don’t hesitate to stop by and visit us again. 

    See ya real soon,

    Christina
