Disney World added time at Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom and Hollywood Studios for November 15, 16 and 21. Magic Kingdom opens at 8am on November 15 and closes at 11pm on November 16 and 21, Animal Kingdom stays open until 8pm on November 15, and EPCOT is unchanged.
Disney's two Christmas parties open a night apart. Jollywood Nights at Hollywood Studios runs $169 to $199 with a Passholder discount every night; Very Merry at Magic Kingdom runs $189 to $229, includes cookies and drinks, and was 13 of 25 nights sold out by October 24.
Disney's Jollywood Nights foodie guide, out October 28, gives the new Checkin' It Twice Lounge five drinks, four marked new and one without alcohol. It also lists two new drinks at the returning Annual Passholder-only cart, new dishes at Fairfax Fare and the Brown Derby, and souvenir sundaes, but no prices.
Disney World stretched hours for November 8 to 14: Magic Kingdom opens at 8am on three Christmas party days, stays open to 11pm on November 10 and 11, and runs 8am-11pm on November 14. Animal Kingdom closes later on four days, and Hollywood Studios opens at 8:30am on the 14th.
Disney's 2026 holiday foodie guide lists 11 items at Santa's Holiday Grove, 10 of them new, from November 13 through January 3. Five other Animal Kingdom dining spots start a week earlier on November 6, Hollywood Studios starts November 7 and most of Magic Kingdom starts November 8. No prices are listed yet.
Disney World has posted park hours for December 21 to 31. Magic Kingdom currently opens at 9am every day, an hour later than last Christmas week, and closes at 10pm most nights and midnight on December 30 and New Year's Eve. These are early listings, and hours often grow closer to the date.
