Hollywood Studios

Disney World is celebrating BIG for the holidays this year with the return of the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays and the all-new Jollywood Nights event. With all of these exciting things come lots of crowds! That is apparent through the wait times too, although we were a bit surprised at what is going on at Disney’s Hollywood Studios right now…

The wait times are trending DOWN. Not just a little bit, but there were some huge decreases this week at popular attractions like Slinky Dog Dash and Rise of the Resistance! Check out the full details on those average wait times and the rest of the parks below.

Magic Kingdom

Starting in Magic KingdomSeven Dwarfs Mine Train had the longest average wait time of 67 minutes. Last week, the average wait time was 76 minutes so the average has decreased since then.
