Disney's Hollywood Studios Closes Magic of Disney Animation Area Early

The Magic of Disney Animation area at Hollywood Studios has introduced new operating hours that may catch guests off guard. The area, which includes Once Upon a Studio Theater and Olaf Draws!, now closes by 6 p.m., even if guests have more time left in the park.

According to Disney's schedule, The Magic of Disney Animation is listed from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m., but some parts of the building operate on slightly different schedules. Off the Page! character meet-and-greets are available from 9 a.m. until 6:30 p.m.

Guests who plan to save these experiences for the evening may arrive too late, as the area's operating hours are shorter than those of other parts of the park. The Magic of Disney Animation is not the only reason guests spend time in Animation Courtyard, with Disney Jr. Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Live! and Drawn to Wonderland playground also available.

Hollywood Studios has become a busy park, with many attractions competing for attention. Guests may need to adjust their plans to fit in these new experiences before they close by 6 p.m.
