They don’t call it the “long days of summer” for nothing! The days really are a lot longer, and it looks like Disney World is embracing that!
The long days of summer are right around the corner
We already started to see some crowds at Disney World during spring break, and it doesn’t look like that’s going to let up over the next few months going into summer!
More crowds usually mean that we start seeing hours extended at the parks. The last time we checked, we saw hours for EPCOT extended to 11AM to 10PM from April 25th through May 8th and to 11AM to 9PM from May 9th through June 26th. But now, those hours have changed…AGAIN.
You’ll get more time here this summer!
Disney World recently released park hours through July 10th, and we noticed that EPCOT’s hours were extended for this time to 11AM to 10PM for May 9th through July 10th.

So that’s more time EVERY DAY to enjoy the EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival (which runs through July 5th). Now we just have to wait and see if these hours will apply to the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival, which begins on July 15th. We’ll keep an eye on the calendars and keep you updated!
