What Are Extended Evening Hours?

Extended Evening Hours at Walt Disney World refer to the additional 2 hours time that select Disney theme parks are open beyond their regular schedule. During extended evening hours, select attractions, restaurants, and shops remain open, offering guests more time to experience the magic of the theme parks. These extended hours are reserved for guests staying in Disney World’s Deluxe Resorts, or a few other qualifying Disney-owned resort hotels.

All of the Disney Vacation Club resorts are considered Deluxe Resorts. Stays at any Disney Vacation Club resort qualify for Extended Evening Hours on applicable nights, even for those renting from DVC members!
