As is typical for a Friday afternoon, Disney World has updated its theme park hours for the weeks ahead. A recent trend that continues this week is Magic Kingdom extending park hours to midnight on select days. Here’s a look at the latest changes at Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom, followed by some more discussion on the midnight closures.
Magic Kingdom Park Hours Changes
- November 12: Park hours extended 9am to 12am (previously 9am to 9pm)
- November 13-14, 16-17: Park hours extended 8am to 6pm (previously 9am to 6pm)

There were no changes to Disney’s Hollywood Studios or EPCOT park hours in today’s update.
This latest update brings the third midnight closing to the Magic Kingdom park hours schedule over the next few weeks. Guests looking for a bit more time can find Magic Kingdom open until midnight on November 3, 11, and 12, with more midnight closures possible as we head into the busy holiday season. There’s no pattern to the midnight closures yet, but we’ll keep an eye on park hours adjustments going forward and we encourage you to check the My Disney Experience app or Disney World website for updated hours a week or two before your vacation.
