We plan to arrive at HS as close to 6am as possible for the 3 hours EMH to avoid crowds, based on what I'm seeing we will be able to do most rides well before the 3 hours is up. Suggestions for what to do until 9 when the other rides/attractions open?

Answer 1

Hi Kelly! Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!

You must be thrilled to begin your Walt Disney World Resort vacation this weekend! I am happy to hear that you are taking advantage of the extra, Extra Magic Hours at Disney's Hollywood Studios. It makes it possible to accomplish a LOT early in the day while there are still cooler temperatures ... that sounds like a win-win to me!

During extra, Extra Magic Hours at Disney's Hollywood Studios, you will have access to Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge, Toy Story Land, and other select attractions. If you find that you accomplish all that you want to do, I have a few suggestions while you wait for regular operating hours to begin. First, this is a great time to return to the attractions that you loved while the waits are still low. After riding any attractions a second (or third!) time, I would use the extra time to refuel with some breakfast and caffeinated beverages! Then you'll be recharged and ready to tackle the rest of the day. With low crowds in mind, this is also a great time to get some photos around the theme park. My family has gotten some amazing shots of us with no other Guests in the background during Extra Magic Hours and they are some of our favorite pictures!

Hopefully this helps give you some ideas for your day at Disney's Hollywood Studios, Kelly! Please let us know if you have any other questions.
