Planning on coming to Disney World this summer? You’ll want to mark this date down before you book your trip!
EPCOT
A lot is happening at Disney World this summer, from ride reopenings to new activities and experiences. People are starting to book their Disney days and make their plans. However, you’ll want to be aware of a random day in July when EPCOT closes earlier than usual!
Unless you’re a Disney Annual Passholder, we’d go as far as to say DON’T book a Disney day at EPCOT on July 1st! EPCOT closes extra early on July 1st this year, and we’re not talking a half-hour or even an hour early. We’re talking a whole 3 AND A HALF HOURS EARLY!
EPCOT Entrance
The park closes at 5:30 PM on July 1st rather than its usual 9 PM. Buying a ticket to EPCOT for that day just doesn’t feel totally worth it when you’re losing that much time at the park. That’s like missing an extra couple of rides, dinner, and fireworks. Sorry to all our Canadian friends who might’ve wanted to celebrate Canada Day at the Canada Pavilion in World Showcase for the evening!
World Showcase
The early closure most likely had to do with a corporate buyout of the park — there aren’t many details on that. What we do know is that the park hours have changed on the My Disney Experience App and the Disney World website.
Test Track
For those traveling to Disney World this summer, feel free to book a day at EPCOT literally any other day! A lot is happening at EPCOT this summer that you’ll want to enjoy. CommuniCore Hall is getting transformed into GoofyCore for Cool KIDS’ Summer, Soarin’ Around the World will be rethemed to Soarin’ Across America, and you’ll catch the last bit of EPCOT’s Flower and Garden Festival.
