Annual Passholders are still required to make reservations for morning and early afternoon park entry. However, they can visit any park after 2:00pm without reservations except for Magic Kingdom on Saturdays and Sundays.

As of 2026, the ability to enter a Disney park after 2:00 PM depends on your ticket type and the specific park rules. At Walt Disney World, Annual Passholders are generally allowed to enter any of the four theme parks after 2:00 PM without a prior reservation, with the notable exception of Magic Kingdom on Saturdays and Sundays, where a reservation is still required. For standard ticket holders, if you have a Park Hopper option, you can now "hop" to a second park at any time of day after entering your first reserved park, effectively removing the old 2:00 PM hopping restriction that existed in previous years. However, all entries remain subject to capacity limitations, so it is always wise to check the "My Disney Experience" app for real-time availability before heading to the gates.
