While we are VERY ready to celebrate the New Year, Disney World is also super hyped for 2021 to arrive in the parks (50th anniversary, here we come)!

We’ve already seen updates about the park hours for January 2021 throughout the year. But, if you’re planning on a Disney trip next year, you might want to pay attention to the newest change!
Those who are partying in the parks to celebrate the start of the New Year will get to celebrate even longer since the Magic Kingdom and Disney’s Animal Kingdom have extended the park hours on January 10th through January 16th!
Tree of Life
Recently, the Magic Kingdom’s schedule was set at 9 AM to 6 PM. However, now the parks will stay open from 9 AM to 7 PM instead.
Over in Disney’s Animal Kingdom the previous 9 AM to 5 PM schedule has been modified to 8 AM to 6 PM on January 10th and 16th. The park hours will also see some changes from January 11th through January 15th with an 8 AM to 5 PM schedule.

EPCOT has announced that the park would be changing its 12 PM to 8 PM hours to 11 AM to 8 PM at the beginning of the year from January 10th through January 15th. However, now guests can spend some extra time at the Festival of the Arts when EPCOT stays open from 11 AM to 8 PM on January 16th as well.
