Should happen this week - it appears Disney extended the hours at Animal Kingdom in March a bit early.

The National Dance Team Championship has an extended evening hours event at EPCOT on Friday, Jan. 31, but I'm not sure if that plays into the schedule shift on Feb. 3.

@DCBaker , Monday 3rd Feb has had EEH listed for AK instead of Epcot. Do you know if this is because of a CM Celebration event? Or a conference / competition / private buyout?

Wow they usually don’t extend hours after they already extended them.
