On May 21st, 2025, EPCOT will be closing early for a private event that begins at 7:30 PM. The private event is a buy-out for the SAP Sapphire & ASUG Annual Conference Orlando.

EPCOT will likely close even earlier than 7:30 PM to provide enough time to empty the park and prepare for the private event. However, we don’t know the exact time yet as the park hours for May 21st haven’t been posted yet.

On the final night of the SAP conference, there will be a celebration night at EPCOT. The buy-out will take place from 7:30 PM until 11:30 PM. The celebration night will even feature a private concert from the Zac Brown Band!

If you plan on being at Disney World on May 21st, it is a good idea to make note of the early closing for EPCOT! You can either choose a different park to go to that day, plan to park-hop after EPCOT, or take advantage of an early evening if you do end up in EPCOT.

While we are talking about EPCOT hours, we have another reminder for you, too! EPCOT will be opening late on April 6th due to the runDisney Springtime Surprise Race. On April 6th, EPCOT won’t open until 10 AM (Early Entry will be at 9:30 AM for Disney World hotel guests).
