September Hours

I know they were likely waiting to see how Harry Potter crowds would be before posting hours, but it is getting rather close and they still have not posted September hours. Does anyone have any idea how long they are going to wait before posting hours?

No idea, but I think 7PM is the absolute latest the parks will be open.

In the past, the Studios has stayed open until 6pm and IOA closes at 7pm for September. I think Universal is trying to gauge what impact the HP crowds might have on the hours. It shouldn't be too much longer.

Would September be a good time to go? My kids are out of school the week of the 20th.

A good time as far as what?

Crowds?

Very uncrowded. But HOTT. Universal crowd patters are exactly the same as Disney's. When Disney is busy, so is Universal. They're connected.

Our other choice is February, but it is during president's day week.

No crowds, but hot OR cool, but crowds. Tough call!

We've been to WDW for several NYEs so we know what crowds can be like.
Kinda clueless about Universal.
Thanks!

I was there in February this year. IOA sucks in cold weather. Very little to do.

The hours for Sept. & Oct. are now up.

Thanks!

I checked and we actually get an 8pm close for one of the weekend days! My little OCD brain can breathe a little easier now.

The September hours are disappointing. I was hoping for, at least, some 7pm closes, but they are closing at 6pm every night that we are there. I just figured that they might stay open a little later due to Harry Potter. Oh well. We'll just have to make do.
