Magic Kingdom Park Hours Extended for 50th Anniversary

Disney World’s 50th anniversary is TOMORROW!!

It’s almost here!

Can you believe it?! The Most Magical Place on Earth is about to be half a century old — and we’re SO ready to celebrate. From fireworks to food to merchandise, Disney has been getting us hyped up for this day for a long time. And now, guests will have even longer to celebrate the big day in Magic Kingdom!

Disney has extended the hours in Magic Kingdom for the 50th anniversary!

Cinderella Castle at night is a very pretty sight!

Previously, the park was going to be open from 8AM-10PM on October 1st, and 9AM-10PM on October 2nd-4th. But now, you will get a whole extra hour in Magic Kingdom because the park will be open until 11PM! The new hours are:

  • Friday, October 1st: 8AM-11PM
  • Saturday, October 2nd: 9AM-11PM
  • Sunday, October 3rd: 9AM-11PM
  • Monday, October 4th: 9AM-11PM

How gorgeous is this?!

This will give you even more time to explore the park after watching Magic Kingdom’s new fireworks show — Disney Enchantment — at 9PM each night!
