NEWS: All Four Disney World Parks Extend Hours in Mid-February!

Planning a trip to Disney World can be a tad overwhelming, especially during a time like this!

Spaceship Earth

One thing that’s important to keep an eye on is the ever-changing hours for the parks, which Disney tends to release in batches a several weeks in advance. So if you’re Disney-bound around mid-February, we’ve got some extended hours to tell you about!

When they were first announced, the park hours for each park in February were pretty limited.

Magic Kingdom

But there appears to be a change in hours for ALL four parks, and the good news is there will be more time to spend in Disney World!

Here are the extended hours you need to know if you’re heading to Disney World in February!

Magic Kingdom

Magic Kingdom hours initially looked like 9AM-6PM daily, but Disney has extended weekday hours to 7PM for most weekdays the first half of the month, and until 10PM on February 12th, 13th, 14th, 15th, 19th, and 20th! The park will also be open until 9PM on February 16th, and until 7PM on February 17th and 18th.
