And they added Fantasmic dates & times. Great. Doesn't look good.

 

[sassyredhead]

Wow. Lots more F! at the end of May.

 

[finedice]

They probably added Fantasmic! times because of the early weekend closing of MK for grad nights. Everyone else still needs something to do at night...

OOPS - NM, didn't realize the whole month was there....

Creates a dilemma for me in that we were going to DHS on May 26th which was supposed to be a low crowd day. With the extended hours and second F! I'm afraid I may end up having to move my whole week around. Sad thing is, there is really no good day to attend DHS the entire weeks of my stay.

Also, why no second MSEP on Sunday May 29th with the late night EMH. That seems odd to say the least.

 

[lakoda]

Ugh. Was super excited about 8:05 am ADR at CP since the MK WAS opening at 9 am.

 

[lakoda]

Okay, now I'm confused...Disney park hours list the AK as having 8 am EMH. Could it have changed to MK?

 

[Betsyp]

So MK is now EMH on 5/22 until 12 am, not 3 am? That's not good news, right? I was hoping to wait out the crowds until they started thinning out at about 12 (even though no way could I make it until 3 am)...........Now there's no advantage to EMH. Am I correct? Thanks!

Also, am I missing something or is Epcot now not an Evening EMH on 5/27.......another lousy move as that's my last night and I would have enjoyed hanging around late at Epcot.

Today has been a bad day, lol

 

[ocalla]

I have a couple of questions about the times:

DHS says it closes at 10:00 a few times during the last week and yet they have a Fantasmic at 10:30?

also

on 5/28 it says MK opens at 8:00 a.m. (but there is NO morning EMH??)

Are these things correct?

Thanks in advance

They don't actually put the EMH park closing time on these forms. You EMH time hasn't changed.

Ok, thanks - now my day has been made better............Plus I just got my Magical Express tags, so the reality of my upcoming trip is really beginning to hit me!

 

[jm106]

Woo Hoo none of my days have changed and they didnt add F! on the day we were trying to avoid it. I am so happy I chose the days we did

 

[Jasperann]

Thanks for the heads up! Looks like we will be able to view Fantsmic while we are there. It is showing four times in the times we are there and twice each night it is showing. But I suppose that means they are expecting higher crowds... Or is this normal for May? Either way I will be the whole time.

 

[Giddychilde]

Yesss! I didn't think we would be able to see Fantasmic, but now we definitely will! Other than that, my schedule isn't really affected, which is excellent!

 

[Robo]

1- DHS says it closes at 10:00 a few times during the last week and yet they have a Fantasmic at 10:30?

Very common.

Most guests who want to see the 10:30 show are already in the theater by 10PM, anyway.

They didn't do it to this extent last year.

 

[Jasperann]

They didn't do it to this extent last year.

Then I have about 2 weeks and 2 days to adjust my thinking... I was hoping for light crowds. But we have hoppers so we will be okay with what ever happens. A couple of the parks I want to visit on certain days did not change the hours at all, so I think I picked well.

So I get they are extending HS til 12am on F/Sa/Su to anticipate large crowds for SWW/Star Tours 2.0. But for the following weekend, a holiday, only on Sat? Not Friday or Sun? Every other day in May with F! has 2 shows now except the last week? I don't know whether to be disappointed because my family the late hours and later F! show........or be happy they aren't anticipating bigger crowds.

Still plenty of time for them to add shows for those dates if they decide they are needed.

Why are these hours different from what is posted on the Disney World website calendars?
