    Going to WDW Jan 15th- 24th. Will park hours be posted before the 60 day mark to make dining reservations? Has your experience been that hours stay the same for the parks in January? Just trying to plan which park on which day for dining. Thank you

    Welcome to planDisney, Michelle. It's so nice to virtually meet you today!

    Typically, theme park hours are released 60 days ahead of time, and while they don't typically vary wildly from day to day in January, there will be differences. And you'll want to note that even once hours are posted, they can and do change leading up to your park day. So you'll want to ensure you're checking back as your trip gets closer. However, even with differences in theme park hours, the parks are typically open for the standard meal times of breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And if you want to eat an earlier breakfast, the restaurants at the Disney Resorts Collection Hotels can be great options, and Disney Springs is a great option for a later dinner!

    Now, I hope that you're planning to check out the EPCOT International Festival of the Arts when you're there. This year, it's running from January 17th to February 24, 2025. This creative festival brightens up the park with so many different disciplines of the arts, including my favorite, the culinary arts. The Food Studios often have options that are both beautiful to look at and delicious to eat! And then there's the Disney on Broadway Concert Series, which brings Broadway talent to the park to celebrate Disney musical magic.

    Michelle, enjoy your January visit to the resort. I can't think of a better way to start the new year! Reach out again with any other questions.

    I don't know if it's art, but I know I like it,
