The Extended Evening Hours Virtual Queue for EPCOT's Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind reached capacity after just three seconds on its first day of operation.

Following the same pattern as the regular 7am and 1pm Virtual Queue distribution, boarding groups for the 6pm Extended Evening Hours queue were taken almost instantly.

The Extended Evening theme park hours nights at EPCOT are available to guests staying at a Disney Deluxe Resort, Disney Deluxe Villa Resort, and The Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin.

On Extended Evening hours days, eligible guests can use the Virtual Queue twice, once during the 7am or 1pm distribution and again at the 6pm distribution. In addition, purchasing a Lightning Lane entry would allow for a maximum of 3 Cosmic Rewind rides in a day.

To join the 6pm Virtual Queue, you do not need to be inside EPCOT. Learn more about Cosmic Rewind's Virtual Queue.

Currently only running one side of Guardians for extended hours. Will be interesting to see the stats. Off night at Epcot. Remy's is down, as is SSE, and Guardians has massive lines.
