    We’re traveling to Disney World in October and would like to start planning our park days. Where can I find the park closing times so we can take advantage of any extended evening hours?

    Welcome to planDisney, Susana!

    October is such a magical time to visit! Autumn vibes and Not-So-Scary activities are abundant. You can celebrate the spooky season with Mickey at his infamous party, check out uniquely themed pumpkins on Main Street, and enjoy warm days and cool evenings. 

    A full list of park times, including Extended Evening Hours, can be found on the Walt Disney World website and on the My Disney Experience app. It is worth noting that theme park hours are published about sixty days in advance, so you may have to wait just a bit longer for official details. If you're a planner like me, getting a head start on your itinerary is part of the fun! While exact operating hours are still a couple of months out, you can still start your preliminary plans now. I like to begin with making a must-see and do list for each member of my travel party, and determining how much time we might need in each park. Be sure to include any dining reservations you are hoping to secure in your plans. You can also keep an eye on current Extended Evening hours to get an idea of what they may look like during your visit! 

    Susana, you'll also be able to check out the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival during your visit. This is one of my favorite reasons to visit! The exclusive small plates and flavorful sips at the Global Marketplaces are sure to please every palate. And the Eat to the Beat Concerts may just be the perfect way to end your EPCOT day. 

    We can't wait to see ya real soon!
