May Hours are Posted

[dawgsgirl]

Take a look on the disney site. Looks like they are expecting a big crowd over Memorial Day!

 

[kbkids]

Yeah!! BUT - I don't see Wishes listed - What do you think? - Just haven't figured out a time yet, or are they not planning to do them?

 

[floridafam]

Does anyone know when they will add what times Wishes is to be shown?

 

[bethbuchall]

I want to know about Wishes, too. I am just happy that some of the hours are up!!!

All of the hours are posted on Disney's cast site. I've copied spetro and wishes for you guys. Hope it helps. Please note, as it is always posted at the bottom of all calendars that times are always subject to change. Also see my thread about NO e-ticket nights for May. ugh.

n2mm,

Thank you! Wishes on the 24th! Yeah.

I figured there would be because there is a Grand Gathering Fireworks voyage scheduled for that night at the MK.

Thanks again.

 

[DebbieB]

Yes! My gamble paid off! I booked Crystal Palace for 5/4 at 5:30PM hoping that Spectro and Wishes would be that night!

 

[floridafam]

Does anyone know why Wishes is scheduled for after the park closes on some nights?

 

[Beaker74]

Does it make sense that Wishes is scheduled after the MK closing time, i.e. Wishes at 8:45 when MK is scheduled to close at 8:30? Thanks for your help!

 

[bethbuchall]

May 18th is the only day that Wishes isn't scheduled? Or did I miss it? That's my birthday and our last day there, so I was hoping for Wishes...but I'll see it earlier in the week!

I counted 5 nights where Wishes isn't schedule, including the 1st-2nd. I really, really like Disney new trend towards later park hours with Wishes almost every night. I know it probably means the end of e-ride nights, but I like knowing that during our vacation we'll be able to go to Wishes any night during our trip (or again and again).

I do think it makes sense that Wishes is sometimes scheduled after park closing. Fantasmic starts at the same time as MGM "closes," same with Illuminations and Fantasmic. What that means is that every ride and most shops/snack shops will close at that time, but there will still be that closing show.

 

[bethbuchall]

Oops! You're right. We're going to be there from the 8th-19th, so I didn't pay enough attention to the beginning or ending of the month. There are several days with no Wishes in May.

I can't find the hours for May---could someone please post a link for me???

 

[mickeymule]

See if this works

Now I have to go redo our itinerary! Wishes is only being shown one of our park days -- the one we had planned to do Biergarten dinner and illuminations. I'd rather know now though. I wish I knew for sure what was going to happen June 1st (our last park day) so I could really plan.

Are the fireworks viewable from anywhere outside the MK or do you have to be in the park? We'll be there June 2&3 for non-park days (conference). That may change the itinerary again. Tx.

 

[Disneyland_emily]

Woohoo! Now I can really plan Course it doesnt have the Studios schedule... But that wont be a close the park down day for me -em

 

[ncbyrne]

The hours for MGM and Typhoon Lagoon are unavailable this soon. Can I assume that MGM will open at 9? And what about TL, does it open at 9, 10? I want to be sure I'm among the first in line on our swimming day.

 

[LadyTrampScamp&Angel]

OH No!

No wishes on the Friday, Saturday, or Sunday night during Memorial weekend? Doesn't that seem strange (May 28th, 29th, or 30th)? If that doesn't change I'll be really bummed

 

[plutosgirl]

This works perfect with our itinerary!! Yea!! And we have a PS for Chef Mickey's on the 11th with the hopes of staying for Spectomagic and Wishes afterwards and it worked out perfectly!! yea...no rain, no rain, no rain!!

Thanks!

Here are MGM's hours and Fantasmic scheduled hours according to the employee site. PLEASE NOTE THE TIME ON 5/19!!!

MGM is openned 9:00 AM to 8:30 PM (5/1 to 5/8)

5/9 to 5/31 the hours are 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM (with exceptions)

5/25, 5/28, 5/29, 5/30 openned until 10:00 PM

Here the odd one: On 5/19 MGM hours are 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM

Did a little research and found that there is a private function that night (sponsor/Visa) so park closes early.

Water Park hours posted for the entire month (both parks):

10:00 AM to 6:00 PM

FANTASMIC TIMES:
April 5-17 -- 8:30pm & 10pm
May 1-8 -- 8:30pm
May 9-18, 20-24, 26, 27, 31 -- 9pm
May 25, 28-30 -- 9pm & 10:30pm
