Disney World Extends Theme Park Hours in Late March

We have some great new for those of you planning a trip to Walt Disney World this month! The Walt Disney World Resort is extending its theme park hours in late March. This means more time for fun and adventure in the magical world of Disney!

Starting March 24, guests visiting Magic Kingdom and Disney’s Animal Kingdom will enjoy an extra three hours of park time on most days. The new hours for Disney’s Animal Kingdom will be from 8 am to 7 pm on March 24, and from 8 am to 8 pm from March 25 to 30. Previously, the park was open from 9 am to 6 pm.

Magic Kingdom is also getting in on the fun with extended hours from March 24 to 30. The park will open at 8 am and close at 11 pm, giving guests a full 15 hours to explore. This is a significant increase from the previous hours of 9 am to 9 pm.

Disney’s Hollywood Studios will see a more modest extension, with an additional 30 minutes added to its operating hours. From March 25 to 26 and March 28 to 30, the park will be open from 9 am to 9:30 pm, instead of closing at 9 pm.

Guests staying at Walt Disney World Resort hotels can take advantage of an even earlier start, with access to the parks 30 minutes before the regular opening time. This is a great opportunity to enjoy some of the most popular attractions before the crowds arrive.
