Things are VERY busy in Disney World right now — a LOT is going on in the parks.
A lot of that activity is happening in Magic Kingdom, where TRON Lightcycle / Run just opened and the Happily Ever After fireworks have returned! But Spring Break has also brought a TON of people to Disney World (the crowds and wait times are no joke). It’s no wonder that we’re seeing Genie+ at its highest price ever, but also selling out VERY early in the day for multiple days. So will that be the case next week?
Let’s take a look at park hours and park pass availability for next week and see.
Magic Kingdom Park Hours
Magic Kingdom is open from 9AM-11PM on April 9th-15th.
Extended Evening Hours are on April 12th from 11AM-1PM.
EPCOT Park Hours
EPCOT park hours are from 9AM-9PM on April 9th-15th.
Extended Evening Hours are on April 10th from 9PM-11PM.
Hollywood Studios Park Hours

Animal Kingdom Park Hours

If you’re a Disney World hotel guest, you can enter the parks 30 minutes before the official opening time with Early Theme Park Entry.
Park Pass Reservation Availability
Park pass reservation availability is dependent on whether you’re a guest with theme park tickets, a Disney World hotel guest, or if you’re an Annual Passholder. For visitors with Theme Park Tickets, all four parks are available next week.
For those staying at select resort hotels, Hollywood Studios is sold out for April 10th.
Disney World uses a different calendar to track park pass availability for Annual Passholders. For those with an IncrediPass, Magic Kingdom is sold out on April 9th, 11th, and 12th.
For those with a Sorcerer Pass, Magic Kingdom is also sold out on April 9th, 11th, and 12th.
Those with a Pirate Pass are blocked out from ALL dates next week.
The same goes for those with a Pixie Dust Pass: the entire week is blocked out.
That’s everything you need to know about park hours and park pass availability in Disney World next week. If you haven’t made those park pass reservations yet, we suggest doing that as soon as possible! Note that availability can and does change often, so be sure to check that if you’re visiting the parks next week!
