Good to know that the usual is about a month in advance. Thank you!We're in the same boat - arrive December 30th, stay until January 5th. Usually, lately, the hours are posted about 30 days out. The December ones went up a bit earlier that that - I think mid-October - which makes sense given how popular that time of year is.
In previous years, the hours go back to "normal" the first week of January, as crowds abate. Normal meaning along the lines of 9AM-7PM or so weekdays, but I am wondering if this year will be different, as the Christmas break for many schools comes "late" this year. That is, many children, like here in Canada, don't have to return to school until January 9th - last year it was the 2nd (as they were let out a full week before Christmas itself). So that means - for some - freedom to travel that first week of January.
Don't know if that will actually mean higher crowds in the parks, or longer hours in response. Me, after what is sure to be chaos the weekend of the 31st/1st, I'll take shorter hours if it means fewer people.
Sure would be nice to know soon!!For New Year’s Day - given that’s on a Sunday I’d bet on a 10PM close.
The next day, Monday, is an interesting one. That’s the day that a lot of people that work weekdays get off for New Years, meaning a long weekend. Wonder if that means later close (and bigger crowds).
I may be stalking the app every day (several times a day, actually). This is silly, as I'm only going starting Jan 30, and will also need February hours, but this is driving me nuts!Still nothing

Unfortunately - at least on the app - I think these hours have been up for a bit - at least a few days.Well something must be happening. The CityWalk hours for Sunday January 1st are up! Progress!
I was coming here to say this! I wish they would release the whole month already, we're checking in on 01/30...There has been movement at last! The first 3 days are up for US side only.

The app has the whole month for all 3 parks. Early entry at IOA.Looks like all of January is up for the Studios, and they're still working on IOA. Nothing yet for VB, or early entry.
Based on the hours for the first week, seems they're anticipating pretty decent crowds, as both sides are open to 9PM.
