A little more park time on three November dates
Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom and Hollywood Studios have updated hours on November 15, 16 or 21. Here are the date specific times to check before your visit.
A little extra park time is always welcome when you are fitting favorite rides, dinner and an evening stroll into the same day. Disney’s calendars now show earlier openings or later closings at three parks on selected November dates.
BlogMickey reported the extensions on October 30. We checked the current hours against Disney’s individual calendars for November 15, 16 and 21. All times below are local to Orlando.

Sunday, November 15
Magic Kingdom opens at 8 AM and closes at 6 PM. Early Theme Park Entry is listed from 7:30 AM for eligible guests.
Animal Kingdom opens at 9 AM and stays open until 8 PM. That later opening still applies, even with the longer evening.
Magic Kingdom’s 6 PM regular closing remains in place ahead of the separately ticketed Very Merry Christmas Party. Extra morning time does not include admission to the party.
Monday, November 16
Magic Kingdom’s regular hours are 9 AM to 11 PM. That gives the evening a little more room, with an 11 PM closing also listed for Saturday, November 21.
Saturday, November 21
Magic Kingdom: 9 AM to 11 PM. Animal Kingdom: 8 AM to 7 PM. Hollywood Studios: 8:30 AM to 7 PM, with Early Theme Park Entry from 8 AM for eligible guests.
Hollywood Studios still closes regular operations at 7 PM before the separately ticketed Jollywood Nights event. These are regular operating hours, not Extended Evening Hours.
