Creator's Key Takeaways

this early entry time is really special where there's a much lower crowd capacity and you're just going to be able to get a lot of those other attractions done

if you want to be on that very first bus your best bet is to get there about an hour and a half before early entry is going to begin

this is why you need to be here earlier than early entry begins if you got here right at 7:30 when early entry officially starts you're just going to be getting into a massive crowd

after having such a great morning we had a little bit of time left over we decided to head over to the Royal portrait studio

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Arrive at least an hour and a half before early entry begins to be on the first bus or train
βœ“Use the walkway from Contemporary Resort for faster access to Magic Kingdom
βœ“Have someone in your party ready to book the Tron virtual queue at 7:00 a.m.
βœ“Prioritize big ticket attractions during early entry due to lower crowd capacity
βœ“Consider riding popular attractions after fireworks for shorter lines if not an early riser

Not sure where to start or what to expect when you do early entry at Magic Kingdom? We compared two different options on the same day to see which was the best for a fun-filled start to your Animal Kingdom day! About Early Entry: If you're staying at a qualifying resort hotel, you can actually enter the parks at Walt Disney World 30 minutes before they officially open to the public. This can be a huge advantage when it comes to riding the most popular rides in each park, but you'll need to be at the park even earlier if you want to have the shortest wait on rides like Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, Space Mountain and Peter Pan's Flight. We're updating our Magic Kingdom video for 2024 and including the latest info to help you make the most of those precious 30 minutes. Plus, we'll share our best tips for maximizing these 30 precious minutes in the park. This is the third in a series – we'll be updating all of our Early Entry videos for 2024 – so if you haven't already, be sure to subscribe to our channel and ring that bell so you'll be notified when the other new videos in the series come out!
