Overview
- Disney says the park will stay open later on multiple nights beginning November 1, with typical 8 p.m. closings that bring back regular after-dark time in Pandora.
- Published hours for the first week of November list Nov. 1–3 and Nov. 6–7 at 8 a.m.–8 p.m., Nov. 4 at 8 a.m.–6 p.m., and Nov. 5 with 8 a.m.–8 p.m. plus 8–10 p.m. extended evening hours.
- With sunset around 5:30 p.m., the later closings provide roughly two hours to see Pandora’s glowing pathways, lit flora and softly illuminated floating mountains.
- Reporters expect crowds to build around sundown as guests linger for photos and headline rides, potentially lengthening lines for attractions like Flight of Passage.
- Coverage highlights that rides such as Avatar Flight of Passage and Na’vi River Journey feel notably different after dark, and notes a Zootopia stage show is preparing to open at the Tree of Life theater.
