Hollywood Studios Park Hours Extended for March 2020

Park hours for Hollywood Studios have been extended for certain days in March! But, what does this mean for you?

With Spring Break and the opening of Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway on March 4, guests will be drawn into Disney’s Hollywood Studios during the month of March! The boarding group situation for Rise of the Resistance mixed with spring break crowds and people wanting to ride a new attraction means you will need an excellent touring plan. Character Locator has you covered!

Along with a great touring plan, extra hours to be in the park also helps immensely. Disney accommodates that need by increasing operating hours. They have been doing this for a couple of months now since the opening of Rise of the Resistance.

Operating Hours for March

Earlier this month, we reported that March 1-14 hours were changed. In that post, we also detailed April hours had changed as well.

Well, the second half of March sees a change in hours as well. From March 15 to 28, Disney’s Hollywood Studios will open one hour earlier. You can check Kenny’s free crowd calendars to see current park hours for all Disney theme parks and water parks.

So far there are no new changes for the park in April.

What do earlier posted hours mean for you?

If your dates have been affected by these extensions, this is a great time to check for newly added FastPasses for your favorite experience.

Additional hours means additional FastPass+ could fall within those hours. Grab those Slinky Dog Dash, Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway, or Millennium Falcon: Smuggler’s Run Fastpasses!

Yep, you read that right! Both Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway and Millennium Falcon: Smuggler’s Run recently became FastPass options! These two plus Slinky Dog Dash are all Tier One attractions.

With March and April being busy months because of spring break and Easter, it is very likely we see park hours continue to be updated across all 4 parks. As always, we will keep you updated with the latest in park hours and Disney news.

Did hours change for your March trip? Did you get a FastPass+ for a Tier One attraction? Let us know over on the facebook page!
