Animal Kingdom Extended Hours

[dischris11]

Does anyone know if FOP will be included in the extended evening hours for Animal Kingdom?

Animal Kingdom doesn't have Extended Evening Hours.
Right now, only EPCOT and Magic Kingdom have them. Last year, they did add them for Hollywood Studios, during party weeks, but now DHS has its own evening party, so nobody knows how that is going to play out for the rest of the year.

It’s getting evening hours starting in November.

It should be. Back in 2017 when pandora first opened it had super late evening emh for resort guests. I want to say the park itself closed at 11pm and pandora was open to resort guests from like 11pm-1am.

In that case, FOP would have to be included. The sun goes goes down at like 5PM in December, so Kilimanjaro Safaris will be closed, as will the animal viewing trails.

This is exciting. Animal Kingdom usually closes too early for us to spend enough time there during our trips.

We will not know the list of attractions until Disney announces them. I fully expect FoP, Na’vi, EE and others will be open.

Kilimanjaro Safari is an unknown as it has been open after dark at times but not for the last number of years.

I don’t think we can say definitively that it will/will not be open until Disney announces EEH attractions.

Yes, I remember going on an after dark Safari ride one time. It was the last ride of the night, I was the only one on the jeep (except for the driver, and it was so dark I couldn't even see my Safari driver. Later, as I was walking out, someone came up and started talking to me about the Safari ride-turns out it was the driver! But I hope that if they run it after dark again, that this time they do something to make it more interesting. I'm a huge fan of Kilimanjaro Safari ordinarily, but after dark, it's boring!

When I did the after dark Safari there was lighting that made it look like sunset/twilight so things were still pretty visible. But I remember thinking the whole time, this is so much better first thing in the morning.
