When do park hours come out?

[JennCa]

We are going end of May/early June and wondering when the park hours might come out. Mostly looking to see if they continue the Monday Epcot and Wed MK extra magic hours schedule.

We really want to do the evening hours and want to make sure we make it a park day! (we are also going to Universal, beach and hanging with family who are very flexible just need to let them know)

Approximately 71 days in advance. E.g. today (March 1st) park hours were added for May 11th.

 

[JennCa]

So they typically add 1 day at a time or do they add a week or month at a time?

Not sure if you have been paying attention, but the park hours for March have been out quite awhile. Then just last week Disney changed them significantly - especially for Epcot (probably because of F&G Festival). In other words, do not put too much stock in the hours when they publish them.

I would love to know whether or not they plan on keeping the Mon-Epcot Wed-MK late hours into the summer.

Don't care about the exact hours, just want to get the late night hour plan days. I am going to be in Orlando for 9-10 days so wanted to work around that issue. Already have ressies at the Dolphin but need to adjust it sometime.

Those hours are part of the 50th Anniversary and have fallen on those days most weeks from when they started in Oct. I would anticipate them staying on those dates most weeks for the remainder of the 50th Anniversary celebrations, especially as most weeks Wed nights are not party nights in MK.

Tomorrow they should add May 2nd but check the calendar to confirm. Lately, 71 days out has been the pattern.

Except the week I am there when they bumped MK back to a Tuesday and threw off my whole plan!

Sorry, where are you seeing Epcot is open until 10? I'm not seeing it on the app or here (for any days that week, not just this one): https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/calendars/park-hours/2022-03-25/

And AK is expanded to 7:30AM - 8:30PM instead of 9-7.

I also don't see that Epcot is open until 10 though.

Our vacation starts the 27th so guess I will wait a week to see if they keep this trend going til Easter.

My bad that was a typo on my part! Thanks for catching it.

I will go back and change it in my post.

Thank you! I hope I didn't come across all "Well actually...!!" I was just confused and thought I was looking at it wrong

Just noticed that hours have been updated for week of March 27-April 2.

MK 9AM-11PM (2 hours later)
Epcot 8:30AM-9PM (90 minutes earlier)

Unchanged
DHS 9AM-9PM
AK 9AM-7PM (I think this was what it was before and is thus unchanged)

ETA: Looks like I caught Disney in the middle of updating... Now it says:

Changed
DHS 8:30AM-9PM
AK 7:30AM-8:30PM
