If you’re planning to head to Disney World in September, there’s been a change in the normal Extended Evening Hours lineup that you need to know about!

Crowds during Hollywood Studios After Hours

Extended Evening Hours allow guests staying at select Disney World hotels the chance to stay in the parks a few hours later than regular park guests, which means you can ride some of your favorite attractions with MUCH lower waits. A date that would often have Magic Kingdom Extended Evening Hours has been changed, meaning the perk is returning to Disney’s Hollywood Studios in September!

On September 16th, Extended Evening Hours will be happening in Hollywood Studios instead of Magic Kingdom,! The change is due to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party happening in Magic Kingdom, which is taking place on select nights from August 7th through October 31st. Extended Evening Hours on September 16th will be from 9 PM to 11 PM.

Extended Evening Hours will also be available at Hollywood Studios on these dates:

• Wednesday, September 23 — Disney’s Hollywood Studios, 9PM – 11PM
• Wednesday, September 30 — Disney’s Hollywood Studios, 9PM – 11PM
• Wednesday, October 7 — Disney’s Hollywood Studios, 9PM – 11PM
• Wednesday, October 14 — Disney’s Hollywood Studios, 9PM – 11PM

Millennium Falcon

The attractions that are scheduled to be available during Extended Evening Hours are:

• Alien Swirling Saucers
• Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway
• Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run
• Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets
• Slinky Dog Dash
• Star Tours — The Adventures Continue
