Hello, Alicia!
Thank you for asking us a question! When you plan your day, it is best to park in the lot at the theme park you intend to be in at closing. In your case, you will be in
Epcot, so I suggest you park there. Although on a map it may seem convenient to park at
Disney's Hollywood Studios, I don't think you will be saving time or steps. In fact, it is possible that Friendship Boats will not be running back to that area after that park closes for the day. Therefore, after your full day at Epcot, you may find yourselves taking the walking path between Disney's Boardwalk Resort and Hollywood Studios to access your car. I would skip parking there and park in the main lot at Epcot.
After the
Candlelight Processional, you can make your way to the main Epcot entrance and be in your car in no time. Keep in mind that Disability
Parking Lots are located a short distance from the main entrance, and those with a valid disability parking permit are welcome to park there.
I hope this helps, and you enjoy your day at Epcot.
Missy
