Things To Do At Disney’s Hollywood Studios When You Have Little Time

Many guests prefer spending their days at the parks from rope drop to close. With so many attractions, shows, and entertainment located throughout all 4 Disney parks it’s easy to spend an entire day exploring and having fun. But what if you don’t have an entire day to spend at the parks? If you’re going for a last-minute outing, or you find yourself park-hopping, you can still have a blast at the Disney parks. Disney’s Hollywood Studios is still a park that can be enjoyed with only a half-day or less! If you have an upcoming visit to Hollywood Studios planned then here are some of our favorite things to enjoy on a time crunch.

For the First Time In Forever: A Frozen Sing-Along Celebration

If guests have limited time to spend then For the First Time in Forever: A Frozen Sing-Along Celebration is a great Disney show to experience. Guests are welcomed into a large theater and are treated to a retelling of the Frozen story by Arendelle Story-tellers. Guests are encouraged to sing along to their favorite Frozen songs as Anna, Kristoff, and even Elsa make appearances on stage. This show runs for approximately 30-minutes long, so guests with limited time should prepare accordingly. The show runs once per hour throughout the day.

The Little Mermaid-A Musical Adventure

Hollywood Studios’ newest show is The Little Mermaid- A Musical Adventure. This stage show is located in Animation Courtyard and stars Ariel and the cast of The Little Mermaid as they sing and perform their way through the story of the classic Disney film. This new show is only around 20 minutes long which is perfect for those on a time crunch. The Little Mermaid-A Musical Adventure runs every 40 minutes.

Meet Characters

Meeting characters is a great way to spend any time that you have in the parks. There are several characters to meet throughout Hollywood Studios and guests can have fun finding them all. Characters currently greeting at Hollywood Studios include Woody, Jessie, Buzz, Bo Peep, Edna Mode, Mr. and Mrs. Incredible, Olaf, Chewbacca, Darth Vader, BB-8, and more.

Star Tours: The Adventures Continue

One attraction that typically has little to no wait associated with it is Star Tours: The Adventures Continue. This attraction is a motion-simulator ride using 3-D effects that takes you through locations of all the Star Wars films. This ride features randomized sequences, so the possibilities seem endless and you never know what you’re going to get.

Alien Swirling Saucers

Another attraction with low wait times is Alien Swirling Saucers. You might not have time to experience other attractions within Toy Story Land like Slinky Dog Dash and Toy Story Midway Mania, but Alien Swirling Saucers is a fun and short attraction that guests love. Swirl and twirl around with the aliens from Toy Story as you listen to iconic songs from the film and soak in the Toy Story fun!
