A HIGHLY anticipated moment we have all been waiting for: PARK HOPPING is BACK at WALT DISNEY WORLD! That's right, guests will finally be able to visit more than one park per day at Disney beginning January 1st, 2021!
Keep in mind, you MUST have a park hopper ticket in order to take advantage of this! Guests who have park hopper tickets, an annual pass with park hopping option, or a vacation package with park hopper tickets are all able to use this feature! Although this is super exciting, there are some new regulations you need to know before you use your park hopper ticket! Check out the steps below to learn how to park hop in 2021!
STEP ONE:
Guests MUST decide which park they plan on visiting first that day and make a Disney Park Pass Reservation for that park. Guests MUST visit that park FIRST. You can make these reservations on DisneyWorld.com, on your MyDisneyExperience app, or your Disney travel professional can do it for you!
STEP 2:
Check the Park Hopper hours on DisneyWorld.com or your MyDisneyExperience App. As of right now, you can hop to another park starting at 2:00PM. These hours will end at each park's scheduled close time. Please note, these hours are subject to change as the year goes on, so it is best to check park hopping hours regularly when planning your trip!
STEP THREE:
Head to your first park! This is the park you made an advanced reservation for. You will be able to enjoy this park all morning and early afternoon! Again, make sure to check park hours so you can be there at rope drop if you want to take full advantage of the day!
STEP FOUR:
Head to ANOTHER park! At 2:00pm you can visit another park. Something important to note: guests ability to enter another park will be subject to that park's capacity limits, so as of right now there are no absolute guarantees that you will be able to enter the park. However, Disney recently increased park capacity from 25% to 35% so you will most likely have a pretty good chance at entering your next park!
PLEASE NOTE: You will only be able to attempt to join a boarding group for Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance attraction if you made a Park Pass Reservation for Disney's Hollywood Studios that day. If you plan to visit Hollywood Studios AFTER you have visited your first park, you will NOT be able to ride this attraction.
Park-to-park transportation will also be available to make sure you can get from one park to the next easily! This transportation will begin shortly before park hopping hours each day.
