Next Week (May 11 through May 19, 2013) at Walt Disney World
By Dave Shute
DISNEY WORLD NEXT WEEK: MAY 11, 2013 TO MAY 19, 2013
The material below details operating hours, Extra Magic Hours, parades, and fireworks.
The same stuff is in the table, but organized by park, not by topic.
“Star Wars Weekends” kicks off at Disney’s Hollywood Studios for 2013 on Friday May 17.
Because of this, you’ll see slightly different Extra Magic Hours than normal, and early openings at both HS and AK over the weekend.
These weekends increasingly are mobbing the Studios, so avoid Disney’s Hollywood Studios the 17th-19th.
I’ll be at Walt Disney World the 13th through the 19th, at Pop Century, then All-Star Music, and then the Polynesian. Expect updated reviews of these three to follow in later May and June.
The first part of the trip will be focused on re-testing the Epcot itineraries (I think Danny is right, so I need to test, revise and re-test them), and the second part on fine and fun dining with older son, who just graduated from law school!
