Epcot rides closing times

[katytrott]

Does anyone know what time the rides in Future World in Epcot close? In particular July/august. All the website park hours quote Future world opens 9-9pm while I'm there, but I've read in on EasyWDW that some of the rides in Future World close at 7pm eg Living with the Land.

To add to my confusion, when looking at fastpass availability you can get FP for said rides after 7pm. In fact in Josh's walk through posts, he writes about these rides closing before 7pm and then in the same post shows pics of fastpass availability after 7pm - so confused!

I know Test Track and Soarin have always stayed open till 9pm but what other rides stay open past 7pm. In particular I'm needing to know about Journey into Imagination, Living with the Land and Seas with Nemo.

Thanks in advance!

Ellen's Energy Adventure closes at 7pm. Rides like Soarin' and Test Track will stay open until park close.

You can get the schedule of operating times by going to the Disney website. Here is the link to today's hours, - you can use the calendar to change to the dates you are interested in, but these rides will typically close at 7pm all year long:

Attractions that close at 7pm tonight:
Circle of Life
Innoventions
Journey Into Imagination with Figment
Living with the Land
and Ellen - which I already mentioned.

I would like to know also because Living with the Land is one of our favorite rides. I do believe that it closes at 7pm though. There are so few rides at epcot, I don't know why they would close anything at 7pm.

It used to be Future World officially closed at 7:00 but some rides stayed open until 9:00. Then they flipped it around, closes at 9:00 but some close at 7:00. Add to that, on EMH nights they stay open. Very confusing.

Why do they do it? The ones that close early typically have very short lines in the evening and they want to save money.

Yes, our friends missed Captain Eo (on their must-do list, and yet we still travel with them....LOL) last trip because if this. They were quite bummed. I know that's what times guides are for, but staggered times coupled with the sheer size of the park, it makes touring a pain. It's part of why Epcot is really my fourth favorite park.
