Disney's Orlando Parks Closing Early Tuesday Due To Hurricane Dorian
ORLANDO (CBSMiami) - The 'Most Magical Place On Earth' is making sure its guests stay happy and safe.
The Walt Disney World Resort is adjusting its theme park hours on Tuesday as it monitors Hurricane Dorian.
Disney will close the Magic Kingdom, Epcot, and Disney Springs at 3 p.m. Disney Hollywood Studios and the Animal Kingdom will close at 2 p.m.
Walt Disney World issued these schedule changes in an interest of caution for their guests and Cast Members. However, seeing as though the impacts of Hurricane Dorian have been minimal, it appears they've decided to extend hours for Epcot and Disney Springs today. The new hours are as follows:
Epcot will be closing at 7:00 p.m today.
Disney Springs will be closing at 8:00 p.m. today.
The last time Disney World close was because of Hurricane Irma in 2017.
Just down the road, Universal Studios Florida, Universal's Islands of Adventure and Universal's CityWalk will open as scheduled on Tuesday, however, Universal's Volcano Bay Water Theme Park will be closed.
