Must have had some surveys tell them AK is not an appropriate or acceptable EMH.

Well at least Mondays at Epcot are locked in, everything else is a wild guess.

Now the WDWMagic calendar is showing Extended Evening Hours at Magic Kingdom on 3rd September 2025.

We are going mid-September and have the same issue - Wednesday would be fine, Friday wouldn't be, and all of these changes are making it difficult to plan, especially when these extended evening hours could help to decide whether we go to MNSSHP this year or not.

NotCalledBob31 days ago

Very frustrating! We planned our whole trip around it being Mondays and Wednesdays. Now it has moved to Friday that week we are missing out. It's too late to change the trip.

Tha Realest31 days ago

Yeah. We have a trip in January and trying to game out which park will have which EEH is frustrating. It’s likely going to be MK based on past years and a lack of after hours events around that time, but we probably won’t know until around Christmas

TheMaxRebo31 days ago

for August, in addition to Epcot on Mondays you have: Wed August 6: Animal Kingdom Wed August 13: Magic Kingdom Wed August 20: Animal Kingdom Friday August 29: Hollywood Studios Not the easiest to plan around especially if booking far out like with DVC
