    Good afternoon! I have a question about park-hopping as a Annual Passholder. After entering the park for which I have a reservation that day, at what time am I allowed to enter a different park on that same day?

    Hi Michelle!

    Thanks for bringing this question to planDisney! As a fellow Annual Passholder, I’m happy to help you out!

    With your Annual Pass, you’ll be able to hop to any park of your choice (pending capacity) any time after you’ve scanned into the park where you have your park reservation

    It’s good to note that, if you plan to take bus transportation when hopping, the direct bus routes that go between the parks usually don’t start until around 10 AM. If you’re taking the boat, Monorail, or Skyliner transportation, you shouldn’t have any problems with early morning hopping, though! If you happen to be hopping between parks before 10 AM that only provide bus transportation, I recommend booking a Minnie Van to get you to your next park as quickly as possible. 

    I couldn’t help but notice that your trip is just in time to enjoy the tail end of the Food & Wine Festival at Epcot. The festival booths typically open around 11 AM, so you may very well want to start your morning at one park, then hop over to Epcot to enjoy an early lunch around the World Showcase! 

    Before your trip begins, you can check out the full festival guide on the homepage of your My Disney Experience app. There, you’ll find the menus for all of the Global Marketplaces, as well as any other fun festival activities, so you’ll have a game plan going into your day. 

    I hope that helps! If you have any other questions leading up to your trip, let us know. Have the best time at Disney!
