Magic Kingdom closes at 9:00 just on certain days?

I noticed that in August Magic Kingdom is open until 10:00 except Sunday it closes at 9:00. I just wondered if it is because they expect lower crowds on that day or what?

The "generic" base MK calendar published this far out usually "defaults" to a 9pm closing sometime in August for the duration of the summer and early fall. It looks like Sunday 8/9 may be when that happens based on the current calendar (if that 9pm closing continues on for days past 8/9, which we'll start to see here as hours are added daily).

Obviously hours that far out are very likely to change later on.

Oh ok thank you! So that is the normal closing time for the rest of that month. Of course it could be extended later on, hopefully.

FWIW, MK closed at 10pm every non-MNSSHP day last August. My guess is you'll see an eventual similar pattern this August.
