Does the time the park close indicate busy vs. nonbusy times? So if the schedule says the parks close at 7:00 . . . would that be a time considered "not busy". When they stay open till 10:00, that's like spring break and other peak times, right? If the parks close at say 7:00 on an evening in early May, there will be no opportunity to go to the park after dark? I'm in a different time zone, and we have daylight savings times, so I'm not sure if it is dark at 7:00pm in Florida in early May, late April.

P.S. This post feels unclear and scattered. . . sorry, that's the way my brain in this Friday afternoon. It would be too much work to think about what I am trying to ask and reframe:confused3

I need some of this :surfweb: but I can't use caffeine :sad2:
 
The park closing hours depends upon the season and the crowd levels. The parks are only open until 10pm in the summer, Christmas time, during HHN and Spring Break although the parks do close at 9pm towards late summer. Unfortunately since Universal is within city limits, they have to deal with the noise ordinance and Dr. Phillips High School sits right across the street from IOA. I wish they did stay open longer due the slower times..I love Universal at night. But...what are you going to do? :confused3
 
in other words......no, it's not dark at 7pm in late April/early May .....sorry :guilty:
 
Florida is on the western part of the Eastern time zone so the sun generally rises and sets later than cities in the northeast like NY or Philly etc. The panhandle is in the Central time zone.
