Hi Jennifer,
Let me be one of the first to say "Welcome Home" to Disney Vacation Club! You have many years of magical vacation memories ahead of you. How exciting to be planning your first trip as a Disney Vacation Club member!
I am glad to hear that you are planning ahead for your Walt Disney World trip. This will help things to go smoothly when you arrive. In order to find
Walt Disney World theme park operating hours, I use the link that I just provided. As I write this, I see that there are park hours available up through November 11. You can get started using those, and then keep checking back for when hours are released for the last couple of days of your vacation. The calendar link that I provided also lists which theme parks have
Extra Magic Hours on each day.
For the nighttime shows, such as
Fantasmic! and
Rivers of Light, I suggest that you head to the attraction pages, such as the ones I just linked. From there, you can select the date that you are interested in attending to see showtimes. Right now I see that showtimes are listed through November 1. You could look at the week before this to get an idea of when the shows might be, but of course that could change, so do be sure to check back regularly to see when showtimes for your travel dates are released.
Also, it is a good idea to check on showtimes and park hours every so often as you approach your travel dates as they can sometimes change.
I hope that this information was helpful for you, Jennifer! Please let us know if you have any further questions.
