ATTRACTIONS OPEN DURING EXTRA MAGIC HOURS AT DISNEY WORLD
Below is the current list of attractions available during morning and evening Extra Magic Hours at Walt Disney World.
(Extra Magic Hours are a perk offered to those staying in a Walt Disney World resort hotel, and a few other hotels. See this for more.)
The attractions are grouped by theme park and then by time–morning or evening.
Where relevant, I’ve also grouped them by area of the theme park.
I always forget, for example, that Adventureland and Frontierland at the Magic Kingdom are not open during morning Extra Magic Hours, but are open in the evening ones.

In reference to the above post, If we are planning to go in November 2012 we can plan on the above and flip Wednesday and Friday?
Thanks for all your wonderful information!
Hi Stephanie, for Feb/March other than the week before and after easter, it goes like this:
Sat am: HS
Sun PM: MK
Mon am: AK
Mon pm: HS
Tues am: Epcot
Weds am: AK
Thurs am: MK
Fri PM: Epcot
In October/Nov, there’s been a lot more variability. The most common change to the above is to flip Weds and Friday, so Epcot pm becomes weds, and AK am is both monday and friday.
Hope this helps!
We are going in 2013, sometime between Feb/Mar or Sept/Oct, and the calendar on the WDW site does not display when the Extra Magic Hour Days are for 2013 yet. You said that there was a predictable pattern for the Extra Magic Hour days, but then displayed a link to the individual park schedules; what is the pattern, so that I may see which days of the week we are going to plan our vacation? Thanks.
