Did they change EMH the week of Memorial Day ?

[maryj11]

I could of sworn HS had evening EMH on May 26th memorial day and Epcot had morning EMH on that following Wednesday ? Now it is vise versa ? Am I losing my mind or did they change it ? No wait I think it was just Memorial Day's have changed, I dont know I'm confused lol

I made up a schedule on excel, and you're right! They did change it. Which also messes with the crowd calendars. It's a little frustrating, especially since I had my ADRs and FP+ set with the old schedule... meaning Epcot all day Monday hoping crowds would be lower. But with EMH, probably not. Also, I'm pretty sure they changed other things as well... like Saturday (31) MK hours. It's our last night so we were hoping to see the Kiss Goodnight, but I don't know that we'll be able to stay til 2.

Yeah I thought so I have my dinner reservations and fastpasses set up already also and we will be going to Epcot on Memorial day . I did see they have MK open until midnight that week and I think it was 11:00 before.
I wonder if this will make HS less crowded on Memorial day now, I dont know if we should change things around or not.

I had HS having PM EMH on Memorial Day and AM EMH on that following Wednesday. They definitely made a change. Thanks for posting this so I can update my spreadsheet of times. We have a dinner ADR at Epcot on Memorial Day and I won't be changing that. I usually try to avoid all the EMHs, but I'm not going to change all our plans at this point.

MK is saying 1 am for that Saturday now, but yeah they definitely changed the weekdays to midnight.

I asked my DH and he said just leave it as is. We have FP+ for everything we want to do, and ADRs for San Angel and Via Napoli. Then we'll probably just stay in WS, which generally isn't too bad on high crowd days. We're also staying at BWV so we'll be able to leave for a bit if it becomes intolerable. Or I was considering switching an ADR for Beaches & Cream, so maybe this would be a good day to do that for lunch.

Yeah I'm probably going to keep our plans as is. I hope it isnt crowded at Epcot it is a big park so maybe we will be ok. Now I'm wondering about MK we plan to do rope drop but also would like to stay until 12:00 am. We would be worn out, not sure we could take a nap if we went back to the resort in the middle of the day We are used to going in September when they have early closing so I'm not used to this lol

They did change it up.

I had done my excel spreadsheet 4 months ago and checked it yesterday against the hours on the Disney website and alot had changed.

And now we are going to parks on days that aren't recommended but there's nothing I can do about it so we'll have to manage.

Oh dang it! I am arriving on Memorial Day and was planning to relax in the afternoon and head to DHS for the evening. I have my FP set up for DHS, but was planning to stay long enough to do my favorites. Now I will go earlier and try to get it all in. They still have a 10:30 Fantasmic listed in addition to the 9:00 one. I was hoping to ride during that second showing. Oh well, not anymore! Thanks for posting. I have not been checking on the park hours. That's why I check the DIS every day!

Of course the park listing still has Voyage of the Little Mermaid until 11:35, so now I am wondering about the second Fantasmic. I just moved all my FP up an hour, so my first one is at 5:20 instead of 6:35. I will be doing single rider line for the roller coaster. There was lots of FP availability.

I know how you feel it has gotten me out of whack since I planned for a couple months and thought I had everything in order.
