NEWS: Disney World Park Hours Have CHANGED!

Okay, so your Disney World trip is booked, your travel is sorted out, you’ve got your park pass reservations, and you’ve made your advance dining reservations. You’re done with all the planning, right?

Disney’s Hollywood Studios

Well, no! That’s because things can change quickly in Disney World, especially when it comes to park hours. Yes, the park hours change OFTEN. We recently noticed some changes, too, that we need to tell you about, including an early closure at one park. 

Okay, first up, we need to tell you about Disney’s Hollywood Studios because it is closing early tonight, December 10th, at 7PM. Magic Kingdom also closes early tonight, at 6PM, because of Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party. Things are closing early on December 10th, so plan to spend your night outside the parks!
