What's Happening?
Disney's Animal Kingdom will offer Extended Evening Hours on Tuesday, October 20, allowing guests at select Walt Disney World Resort hotels to enjoy the park from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. This extension is part of a broader schedule of extended hours across various
Disney parks, typically held at EPCOT on Mondays and Magic Kingdom on Wednesdays. The extended hours at Animal Kingdom coincide with a private event at Disney's Hollywood Studios, which will close early on the same day.
Why It's Important?
Extended Evening Hours provide an exclusive opportunity for guests staying at select Disney hotels to experience the parks with fewer crowds, enhancing their overall visit. This initiative is part of Disney's strategy to offer added value to guests staying at its premium accommodations, potentially increasing hotel bookings and guest satisfaction. The decision to extend hours at Animal Kingdom also helps manage guest flow across the parks, especially during private events that may limit access elsewhere.
