Overview

• Disney’s schedule lists Early Entry at 9:30 a.m. for eligible resort and partner-hotel guests, with general admission beginning at 10 a.m.
• Race operations are expected to slow travel across Walt Disney World, with reported delays of 20–30 minutes or more for drivers and 30–60 minutes for Disney transportation.
• The compressed arrival window is projected to produce immediate long waits at headliners such as Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, Test Track, Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, and Frozen Ever After.
• Guests seeking a traditional rope-drop advantage are advised to choose another park that day or plan for later arrival, extra travel time, and strategic use of Lightning Lane.
• The Springtime Surprise Weekend runs April 16–20 with a 5K, 10K, and a sold-out 10-miler, drawing runners and accompanying visitors who typically boost park crowds.
