Walt Disney World Early and Extended Theme Park Hours
Early Theme Park Entry is Walt Disney World's current version of what was formerly known as Extra Magic Hours and is available daily. Extended Evening Hours are available on select nights at select theme parks for guests staying at Deluxe Resorts, Deluxe Villa Resorts, and other select resorts.
Although the theme parks only offer a 30-minute Early Entry at this time, that window can be valuable if you are willing to get up early. At times, the wait for some popular attractions can be close to the time it takes to walk through the queue.
Early Entry can be a great way to enjoy the theme parks with lower crowds. Attractions and schedules are subject to change. Check the My Disney Experience app on the day you plan to visit. Request a Disney World Vacation Quote.
