Reservation time before park opens

[Labarad04]

Hey!
Soo, I have a dining reservation for Akershus at 8:50 am, Epcot doesn’t open until 10:00 for regular entry and 9:30 for early entry. We are staying at the swan. However I messed up the person count on the room reservation and now I can’t link it to my Disney experience. But I digress, I’ve never been in the park before it opens, how does that work, just go to the cast member in the early entry section and show them our reservation

You (and your group) should not have any issues getting in early if you verify your ADR with the cast member at the entrance. I thought there must be some mistake when you said EPCOT opens at 10 - it's almost always 9AM, with an 8:30AM EE. But I see the one day in April (if that's your day) where the park opens at 10. Really unusual. I wonder what the reason for that is!

But anyway, you'll be fine, and I expect you won't be alone entering the park for early morning ADRs. Others will have the ADRs, too. And you'll be entering an hour before anyone else, so the walk over to Norway should be lightly traveled! Enjoy!

Thank you!! I googled it on 4/6 is run Disney. I’m excited to experience a “quieter” morning and breakfast!

Ah, yes. A run event makes sense for the 10AM opening. Hope they don't make you run to the restaurant!!
