If you’re headed to Disney World soon, you’re about to get a little more time to enjoy the holidays in the parks.

- November 29th
- December 4th through 6th

Disney’s Animal Kingdom has also had its hours extended from 8AM to 6PM to 8AM to 7PM on the following dates:
- November 29th
- December 4th through 6th
- December 11th through 13th
