Hello Lola!
Welcome to planDisney! As an expert planner, I totally understand the need to know those
Disney Theme Park Hours as soon as possible. How can I select which park I want to visit without the hours? I am currently planning a visit to the
Walt Disney World Resort in February and it is making me a little nutty to not have those park hours yet!
Unfortunately, Lola, there is no schedule for when Disney will release those park hours to us. Since you submitted your question, they have released the hours through December 23, 2021, but not beyond that. As a Guest myself, we both just have to wait until Mickey decides to let us know. You can use the hours the week before Christmas to get a possible idea of what you may see during Christmas week. For example, if you are staying at Disney Resort Collection Hotel, know that all of the theme parks currently open 30 minutes early each day for those Guests. Additionally, those staying at Deluxe and Deluxe Villa Resorts are eligible for Extended Evening Hours. In the weeks leading unto Christmas, those hours have fallen on Mondays at Epcot and Wednesdays at Magic Kingdom. There may or may not be Extended Evening Hours during Christmas week, but if they do offer them, I think odds are good that the days will remain the same.
Lola, I would go ahead and make your
Disney Park Pass Reservations now for the parks you think you’ll want to visit. Once the Theme Park Hours are officially released, you can try to cancel and rebook your reservations at different theme parks if you decide you want to change. But if for some reason things fill up, at least you will know you have something booked, even if it isn’t your first choice.
I would check for those park hours daily, Lola. You can check on a desktop, or on the go with the
My Disney Experience Mobile App. Happy Planning!
