Hi Lonnie,
Welcome to planDisney. Thanks for popping in to bring us your question!
Lonnie, I’m so glad you asked this question because park schedules often vary. There’s nothing worse than planning a full day at one of the parks and realizing once you’re there that the hours are different than what you had hoped or planned. But no worries! We can make sure you have the information you need so everything goes smoothly once you arrive!
Since schedules can vary, the hours really depend on
which park you’re visiting and the specific day. In general, Magic Kingdom Park usually stays open the latest, often until around 10 or 11 at night. EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios typically close around 9, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park usually closes earlier, somewhere around 6 or 7 in the evening. For the most up-to-date and accurate times, I recommend
checking the hours and events calendar on the Walt Disney World website or, even easier, the
My Disney Experience mobile app. You’ll see the daily hours right on the main screen as soon as you open it.
If you’re thinking about
Disney Springs, that’s more of a shopping and dining area, and it usually stays open until about 11 at night, sometimes a bit later on weekends. You can also confirm Disney Springs open and close times on the app and website.
So be sure to check the My Disney Experience app the day of your visit because hours can shift depending on the season, crowds, or special events. It’s the easiest way to know exactly what your day will look like.
I hope this helps you plan your magical day at the most magical place on earth once you arrive, which it looks like you’re almost there, like Tiana would say!
Wishing you the most magical day ever. Please come back and see us again for any additional planning tips or questions!
TTFN; ta ta for now! ~Emille
