Hi there, James, and welcome to planDisney!
Hooray for Hollywood! An early morning movie at
AMC DINE-IN Disney Springs sounds like a great way to start the day! So, lights, camera, action--let's shine the spotlight on your question!
It has always been my experience that the parking garages at Disney Springs open about one hour to 45 minutes before the official opening of the shops and restaurants. There are no published operating hours for the Disney Springs parking garages, so I decided to do a little "behind the scenes" investigation for you. In her starring role, a lovely Cast Member assured me that you should have no problem parking in the garage before your movie. While the shops open at 10 am, the garage will open before this time. (standing ovation cheer for this answer) YAY!
James, you'll find complimentary self-parking at the parking garages, with several lots to choose from. Keep in mind that the Orange Garage may be under some construction at this time, so I'm including the website
HERE for the location of the Lime Garage and others.
Okay, before we "roll the credits" on this question, I hope you'll have time to explore my two favorite spots at Disney Springs. There's nothing like shopping at
World of Disney, followed by a visit to
Gideon's Bakehouse for a cookie (or two, or three...or six). My husband would tell you cookies & cream are the best, but according to their website, they are serving (my pick) their white chocolate caramel macadamia nut for the first time in February! This is BIG cookie news about some BIG cookies!
James, that's a "wrap" on this question. Thanks for stopping by planDisney. I hope you'll have a "show-stopper" of a day at Disney Springs. Visit us anytime.
"Places, everyone!" Your magic is about to begin,
Shonette
