Jan 09, 2024 in "Early Theme Parks Entry and Extended Evening Hours"

Posted: Tuesday January 9, 2024 9:00am ET by WDWMAGIC Staff

Guests staying at B Resort & Spa Lake Buena Vista will be able to continue to enter the Walt Disney World parks 30 minutes before regular opening as part of Early Entry.

The B Resort was previously listed as offering the Early Entry benefit through December 31, 2023, but that has been extended into 2024 alongside the other Disney and third-party hotels participating in Early Entry.

Early Theme Park Entry was introduced with the start of Walt Disney World's 50th anniversary in October 2021, and replaced the former Morning Extra Magic Hours.

The benefit is available to all Walt Disney World Resort hotel guests and guests of other select hotels (listed below) each day at each park, and offers 30 minutes of additional time through the end of 2024.

    Please correct me if it's not the plan but I would not be shocked if July 3-5th were soft Opens. Spectro & MSEP were always later in the Night on July 3-4th...

    Yes, we know! 7pm-12am! LOL!

    Have you heard the good news about Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party?!?!

    I don't suppose there's any chance they actually keep MK open until Midnight once Starlight begins? I mean, I'll take 11pm, but it would be great to get on some rides during that last hour while the parade is going. I don't know when MK was last open until 12am, but I don't think it ever was during my visits.

    I assume they will want a few full run-throughs after the park closes before it officially starts. It’s been so long since a new parade, I have no idea if there are usually previews for the “usual” groups, or just for CMs. Maybe some of our CM members will be able to answer that.

    Because it emptied out everyday well before that and they’re not in the business to pay to keep things open?

    jrhwdw23 hours ago

    I've been wondering, If we're not expecting Starlight till after the 4th why move July 2nd to AK??? Might MK be planning some sort of Preview on the 2nd?

    DHS would be far more preferable

    Well expect no MK probably until January. MK usually goes on hiatus when the Halloween and Christmas parties start.

    I'm quite disappointed at this news, actually. I (wrongly) assumed things would go back to the way they were back when Spectro & MSEP were there. They had EMH when those parades were there. And there's barely anything to do at Animal Kingdom.

    Yea I’m wondering if AK will be the Wednesday EEH for rest of summer or if it would flip back to MK later in July.

    jrhwdw2 days ago

    Looking to the Future, are these EEH Changes just a Debut Season Thing? I'm about 95% sure MK had EMH with Spectro and MSEP.

    Must not have kids under 6 right now haha. We couldn't even make it to 8pm fireworks the last few times we went.

    I'm good with That! :)
