<\/a><\/p>\nAccording to Disney\u2019s official websites for\u00a0Early Theme Park Entry<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Extended Evening Theme Park Hours<\/a>, Lakeshore Lodge is now included among the participating resorts for both benefits.<\/p>\n Guests staying at Disney\u2019s Lakeshore Lodge will be eligible for Early Theme Park Entry, which allows registered guests staying at participating Disney Resort hotels and select other hotels to enter Walt Disney World theme parks 30 minutes before regular park opening each day of their stay.<\/p>\n The benefit applies on check-in and check-out days as well, although valid theme park admission is required. Guests can use the additional time to experience select attractions before the parks open to other visitors.<\/p>\n Extended Evening Theme Park Hours<\/p>\n Lakeshore Lodge has also been added to the participating hotels for Extended Evening Theme Park Hours. This benefit provides registered guests staying at Disney Deluxe Resorts, Disney Deluxe Villa Resorts, and select other hotels with additional time in select theme parks on designated evenings.<\/p>\n Unlike Early Theme Park Entry, Extended Evening Theme Park Hours are not offered every night at every park. Guests should check Disney\u2019s official\u00a0Hours & Events Calendar<\/a>\u00a0for the applicable dates, parks, and operating times.<\/p>\n The addition places Lakeshore Lodge among the Disney Deluxe Villa Resorts listed as eligible for the evening benefit.<\/p>\n Disney\u2019s Lakeshore Lodge Opening in 2027 Disney\u2019s Lakeshore Lodge is a new resort planned for the shores of Bay Lake in the Magic Kingdom Resort Area.
