Salutations, Stuart. Thanks for stopping by planDisney today with this great question!
When I’m at The Most Magical Place on Earth, I want to maximize my time in the theme parks so I can soak up as much fun as possible. It sounds like you’re in the same boat, so I’m happy to report that you can take advantage of the
Extended Evening Theme Park Hours on the day you check out of the Walt Disney World Swan Hotel. In order to take advantage of this benefit, you will need valid admission and a theme park reservation for the same park on the same day or have a ticket with the
Park Hopper option and have already entered the park where you made your initial reservation. Once the Extended Evening Theme Park Hours begin, the Cast Members at the available attractions will scan your method of theme park admission to make sure you have a valid reservation at one of the qualifying resorts. The same is true if you arrive at the entrance of
Magic Kingdom Park after the Extended Evening Theme Park Hours commence.
Stuart, don’t forget to request to join the
virtual queue for
TRON Lightcycle / Run at 6:00 p.m. in order to experience it during Extended Evening Theme Park Hours. You don’t want to miss out on your chance to enter the Grid at night. It’s absolutely breathtaking and so much fun!
I hope this helps you plan out your upcoming trip, Stuart. Don’t hesitate to stop back by with any other questions you have. We’re here and happy to help!
See ya real soon,
Alyssa
