Walt Disney World has once again updated its calendar with more theme park hours. This time around, not much has changed, unlike past weeks.
The latest hours to be released are for Dec. 27, 2020 through Jan. 2, 2021. They are as follows:
- Magic Kingdom: 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.
- Epcot: Noon to 8 p.m.
- Hollywood Studios: 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
- Animal Kingdom: 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
These same hours begin on Dec. 20, 2020, which means, right now, these are the park hours for Dec. 20 through Jan. 2.
It’s unclear if any of these hours will be extended, especially since they fall over both Christmas, New Year’s Eve, and New Year’s Day.
Seeing how hours were extended for Halloween, Oct. 31, and the week of Thanksgiving, there’s a good chance holiday hours could eventually increase.
Here are the hours for Halloween and Thanksgiving week:
Oct. 31
- Magic Kingdom: 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
- Epcot: 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
- Hollywood Studios: 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
- Animal Kingdom: 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Nov. 22-28 (Nov. 26 is Thanksgiving)
- Magic Kingdom: 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
- Epcot: 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
- Hollywood Studios: 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
- Animal Kingdom: 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Hours continue to shift weekly, so we’ll just have to wait and see. With that, allow us to reiterate that you should always check the calendar (either in My Disney Experience or on the official WDW website) prior to planning or heading to the parks to see if there are any changes. We will also keep you in the loop as well.
