October Hours

[Mary09]

This page says Disneyland closes at 5pm the nights of the Halloween party but the calendar site says 7pm (for 10/12). Think it's safe to say it's 7pm?

on mondays & tuesdays the party starts at 6:00. on fridays, which the 5th is, is starts at 7:00. so that sounds right!

that's weird....the halloween party page on the website says 6:00 start time on tuesdays. i haven't received my tickets yet, but wheni ordered them the cast member said it was a 6:00 start. i'm going on halloween though, which is a wednesday, so that may be different.

tuesday the 2ed is 6pm (3pm enter) if your ticket is messed up make sure call them and tell them because there have been others getting the wrong times posted

So does the park really close at 5pm for non-party-goers, Friday nights in Oct.? Or do you think it's 7pm like the calendar says?

i'm pretty sure the park closes at 7:00 when the party begins, so you can stay until that time without a party ticket. i've listened to podcast reviews of the past few parties & that's how it's been described as happening before. that's also how they do the WDW parties, although that doesn't mean a lot since they do so much different from DL.

I thought it was weird that it said party starts at 7pm because I had read here on the boards that it was 6pm on Tuesdays. But I just figured Disney was right....I will call them ASAP!

So party starts at 6 & then we can get in at 3pm, right? My ticket says 4pm enterence time, is that wrong too??

Now that up to Oct 12 is up, I am getting antsy about the next week as we arrive on the 14th. Last time we were at DLR in 2009 the kids were 4 & 6 and we missed a lot of the shows/ entertainment as we concentrated on the little kids stuff and did not want to stray too far from their 8:00pm bedtime. We knew we would be back and that time is almost here. This time I want to make sure we see WOC, Fantasmic, Aladdin and the fireworks in the park(last time watched from our DLH room then the kids went to sleep). We have 5 day park hoppers so I want to plan it so we get all that in plus all the rides we want to do. Waiting patiently...

You should be fine with 5-day hoppers. You can do fireworks and Fantasmic in the same night if you need to. If one of your days is a Saturday, they should be up and running.

WoC runs at 8:15 on the nights that DCA closes at 8.

My tickets for the 23rd are the same way. I called and reconfirmed. They informed me the back of the ticket was wrong and to show up earlier!

Did they mail you new ones??

So the party is actually 6-11pm then? And we can get in at 3, right?

Where did you actually find this info posted? Haven't seen them actually say the days anyhwere...

The DL calendar does mention "Starting September 30, registered Resort hotel Guests will have Extra Magic Hour access to one park according to the early admission schedule." ... but it doesn't mention distribution of days. But then on the Oct calendar it shows the change for Sundays to DCA
