Today, the Orange County Mayor has lifted the curfew that was put into effect on May 31, allowing Disney Springs at Walt Disney World and CityWalk at Universal Orlando to resume their normal operating hours.

The 10 p.m. curfew will be lifted, effective immediately. It was put in effect on May 31. The purpose of the curfew was to prevent the further spread of #COVID19. With demonstrators wearing face masks and social distancing, there is no need to continue the curfew. pic.twitter.com/Q1geRt996G

Orange County joined a number of counties across the state (like Miami-Dade County) that had instituted curfews due to the ongoing civil unrest and protests surrounding the murder of George Floyd. 

The curfew was put in place with enough time to allow cast and team members, operating participant employees, and guests to return home.

Hours for Disney Springs are now back to being from 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM. and hours for CityWalk now are from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM.
