June hours

[TheMouseFan]

We are planning to spend a day at Sea World during our June 2017 WDW trip. Does anyone know what time they typically close at the beginning of June. We will be at CBR June 5-17. Also, is there a particular day of the week that is best to go? Lastly, is the front of line pass generally needed at that time of year? If so, do I need to buy my tickets through Sea World in order to get them, or can they be added to tickets I buy through Undercover Tourist? Thanks!

Beginning of June they are open 9am to 8pm.
End of June (Summer nights) Mon-Thurs 9am-8pm Fri-Sun 9am-10pm (maybe 11pm)
This is based off memory.

Have you tried a search on Seawards website for historical hours ? If not, I don't think @Crazydisneyfanluke is too far out.

Also, is there a particular day of the week that is best to go?

Seaworld is pretty much like Disney - weekends will always be busier because of the locals, midweek is therefore your best bet

Thanks! Do they offer any kind of night time entertainment? Will we want/need to be there the whole day? I'm just trying to decide if I need to make an ADR at one of the WDW resorts for dinner that night.

This is a huge mystery to me.

We last visited WDW in August 2015. We always visit SeaWorld during our 2 week trip. While researching the park hours for SW I found that while they were open late (between 8pm-10pm) there was NO evening show advertised. Previous visits there had always been a Night-time Shamu show (which was more upbeat than the day-time showings) and was well worth staying for.

As far as I'm aware, there is still no night-time show and the only reason for staying much beyond 6pm is to either eat or take in rides that you didn't get chance to do earlier

Thanks! I couldn't find anything either, so I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something!

During summer nights there is Shamu light up the night! The finale includes fireworks. There is also Dance party's and other activities planned esp for kids as well.
I cant remember if they continue Sea Lion tonight! as i didn't go this year to summer nights.

Any idea when "summer" starts for Sea World? We are thinking of going June 6, but could maybe move it back a week.

Usually 2nd or 3rd week of June. I will check if any dates are announced for next year.

This year it started on the 11th of June this year. I expect it to start the weekend of the 9th next year. They usually do a soft run for APs the first night as well.

Thank you so much!! Guess we will push that day towards the end of our trip!

No problem. If i remember, i will post the information here about it in the future.

So, it looks like we'll miss "summer" by 1 week. We planned to go on Monday, June 12, and we leave Florida on Saturday, June 17. The posted hours are 9-7 that whole week until Saturday. So, my question is, will we need/want to be there all day? Just trying to decide if we could easily make the late Hoop-Dee-Doo show that night.

We went back and did a 2nd day but then we love coasters, shows and the exhibits. It's a lot more chilled out than Disney. A thouroughly enjoyable day if you take it easy and expect a different kind of park to Disney/Uni
