    Hi I would like to have more information about the last hour I cant get into an attraction based on the park close time. example today MK is 9:00 to 23:00 what is the latest time I can get in line for an attraction? is the same rule for all parks?

    Welcome to the place where Disney World vacation planning questions meet magical answers! It’s great to have your question, Octavio!

    Maximizing your time in the Disney Parks is a great strategy! I like to use every moment to enjoy the attractions, including up to the time the park closes (and beyond)! Guests visiting the Disney Parks can get in line to enjoy an attraction just before park closing time. For example, tonight Magic Kingdom closes at 10:00 PM. As long as you’re in line before 10:00 PM, you’ll be able to stay in line to enjoy the attraction even after 10:00 PM. The “just before park closing rule” works in all four of the Disney Parks – Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, EPCOT, and Animal Kingdom!

    After park closing is one of my favorite times in the Disney Parks. There is something a little extra magical about the nighttime ambiance in each of the Disney Parks. The pace has slowed a bit, crowds have thinned, and there is a nice calm at the end of a long Disney day!

    I hope you enjoy your time at Disney World this fall, Octavio! Come back to planDisney with any other questions you think of while planning!

    Dreams do come true!
