Disney has released the operating schedule for its new attraction, The Magic of Disney Animation, which opens at Disney’s Hollywood Studios on September 14. During the initial opening weeks, the attraction will operate from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., aligning with standard park hours. Slightly earlier hours begin on September 18 and 19, running from 8:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Starting September 28, the schedule shifts significantly, with operating hours reduced to 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. while the rest of the park remains open longer. This change means visitors planning to see characters in Animation Courtyard or attend theater shows will need to visit during midday rather than early morning or evening. The attraction features interactive experiences including Olaf Draws!, Off the Page! character meet-and-greets, and a dedicated Once Upon a Studio Theater.
