This year has brought many changes to the Walt Disney World Resort and all the other Disney Parks around the world. As more Guests start to be comfortable with visiting the Disney Parks, the crowd levels continue to grow is a safe manner with a limited capacity.
On a typical year, the Disney Parks are busier with the summer tourism and again when the holiday festivities start up towards the end of September. Knowing that Disney fans love spending the fall and winter season inside the parks with special events and treats, Disney World has extended Park Hours on dates that are expected to be busier than others.
From September 15th to October 31st, Walt Disney World is celebrating the fall season and inviting even the adult Guests to pull out their best Halloween costumes! Here are a list of dates for each of the Walt Disney World Parks that currently have extended park hours for September and October, but we do know that there are more extended park hours coming in November when the Christmas holiday season starts on November 6th!
