Hollywood Studios in the Rain: What to Do When the Weather Doesn’t Cooperate

Hollywood Studios in the rain doesn’t have to ruin your day! Find the best indoor rides, shows, restaurants, rain strategies, and when it’s time to leave.

Estimated reading time: 26 minutes

---

I have spent quite a bit of time at Hollywood Studios in the rain.

I’ve done regular park days in the rain. I’ve done Jollywood Nights in the rain. I’ve experienced those lovely Florida days when the weather is absolutely gorgeous for hours and then, somewhere around 5 or 6 PM, the heavens suddenly open and apparently decide to dump the entire Atlantic Ocean onto Hollywood Studios.

So let me begin with something that probably isn’t going to make it onto Disney’s marketing materials:

Being at Disney World in pouring rain is pretty freaking miserable.

😂

I’m not going to tell you that all you need is the right attitude and suddenly you’ll be skipping through puddles singing Disney songs while everyone else runs for cover.

A light shower? Fine.

An afternoon thunderstorm that blows through relatively quickly? You can absolutely work around that.

Hours of steady rain where your clothes are damp, your stroller is wet, your umbrella keeps dripping down your back and water has finally infiltrated your shoes?

Yeah. That sucks.

But Hollywood Studios is actually one of the better Disney World parks for pivoting around bad weather.

There are quite a few indoor rides. There are several substantial shows. You can shop. You can eat. And if you pay attention to the weather and use the My Disney Experience app strategically, you may be able to spend a surprising amount of a rainy afternoon somewhere dry.

You just need a plan.

And you need to know when it’s okay to admit that the rain has won.

First: Always Be Prepared for Rain at Disney World

Even when the forecast looks fantastic.

Seriously.

It’s Florida.

I’ve had Disney days with gorgeous weather where there was absolutely no indication that we were about to spend the evening in a monsoon.

And then…

SURPRISE!

😂

I would always have a decent poncho with me. An umbrella is useful too, particularly if you’re dealing with steady rain rather than just running from one attraction to another.

You can also buy those little plastic covers that slip over your sneakers. They’re not particularly fashionable, but neither is spending the next six hours squishing around Disney World in saturated socks.

Choose your battle.

And if rain is likely, think about what you’re wearing before you ever leave your hotel.

Shoes matter.

Because I have discovered that once my feet are completely wet, there is basically an egg timer on my desire to remain at Disney World.

I can tolerate quite a bit.

Wet socks?

We’re now negotiating the terms of my surrender. 😂

Give Yourself Permission to Leave

This is probably the most important thing I’m going to tell you.

You don’t win anything for being miserable longer than everybody else.

Yes, Disney World is expensive.

Yes, you planned this trip for months.

Yes, you bought the park ticket.

And yes, sometimes the best decision is still:

We’re done. Let’s go back to the hotel.

There is a difference between a rain shower temporarily disrupting your plans and a weather situation that has made your entire family cold, soaked, exhausted and cranky.

You can pivot around bad weather for quite a while at Hollywood Studios.

But even the best rainy-day strategy has limits.

Give yourself some grace.

If you’ve been slogging through torrential rain for two hours and nobody is having fun anymore, you don’t have to continue simply because you’re at Disney World.

If Weather Seriously Disrupts a Special Event, Talk to Guest Relations

I’ve had good experiences with Disney Guest Relations when weather has significantly disrupted something we’ve paid extra to attend.

That does not mean Disney is guaranteed to refund your ticket because it rained.

There is absolutely no guarantee.

But if you’ve paid for a separately ticketed event and severe weather has significantly affected the experience, I think it’s reasonable to politely ask Guest Relations what your options are.

Same idea if you’ve paid for Lightning Lane access and weather-related closures have prevented you from using a substantial part of what you purchased.

I’ve had situations where Disney has been willing to help, whether through some form of refund, accommodation or another solution.

Again:

Not guaranteed.

Don’t march up to Guest Relations demanding compensation because Florida had the audacity to have weather.

😂

Explain what happened. Be nice. Ask whether there are any options available.

Disney charges plenty of money for its vacations, but in my experience its customer service is generally excellent. Give Cast Members a chance to help you.

Is Hollywood Studios Good in the Rain?

Relatively speaking?

Yes.

I would much rather deal with a rainy Hollywood Studios day than a park where most of the things I wanted to do were outdoors.

Hollywood Studios has a surprisingly strong collection of indoor attractions.

Rise of the Resistance.

Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run.

Toy Story Mania.

Star Tours.

Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway—when it decides to cooperate.

There are indoor shows.

There are restaurants.

There are stores.

That’s great.

But here’s the catch:

You still have to get from one of those places to another.

😂

People sometimes make rainy-day Disney advice sound like you’re going to teleport directly from an indoor attraction into an indoor restaurant.

Nope.

You are still walking through Hollywood Studios.

So the goal isn’t necessarily to remain completely dry.

The goal is to use the park intelligently enough that you aren’t standing outside in a downpour when there is somewhere considerably better you could be.

Don’t Assume an Indoor Ride Will Automatically Be Running

This is another lesson I’ve learned firsthand.

Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway is indoors.

And it can be incredibly temperamental when the weather is bad.

I’ve experienced this.

So don’t look at a park map, identify everything that appears to be indoors, and assume you’re good to go.

Check My Disney Experience.

Weather can affect attraction operations in ways that aren’t immediately obvious to you as a guest.

If the rain starts coming down, one of the first things I would do is pull out my phone and see what’s actually operating.

Then pivot.

Rise of the Resistance Is a GREAT Rain Pivot

If I look at my weather app and see that the next 40 minutes are going to be miserable, Rise of the Resistance starts looking awfully appealing.

The attraction itself is indoors, and much of the queue is protected from the weather.

And Rise is not a four-minute attraction.

Even without an enormous wait, this is a substantial experience.

You have the queue. The preshow. The transport. The First Order Star Destroyer. The ride itself.

If you’re going to spend the next chunk of time somewhere, being captured by the First Order is considerably better than standing underneath an umbrella watching water pour off your poncho.

😂

Obviously, this only works if Rise is operating and the wait makes sense for your day.

But if I know a significant rain shower is coming?

This is exactly the kind of attraction I’d consider.

Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run Works Well Too

Smugglers Run is another good option.

Once you’re inside the queue, you’re largely protected from the weather, and the attraction itself is indoors.

And if the posted wait is long enough to get you through a passing Florida shower?

For once, a slightly longer line may actually be useful.

Imagine that.

Disney World wait time: 45 minutes.

Normal Sara: Ugh.

Rainstorm Sara: PERFECT. 😂

This is where checking both the radar and My Disney Experience can really pay off.

If the storm looks temporary, you aren’t necessarily trying to find the shortest possible attraction.

You’re trying to find something enjoyable that keeps you dry until the worst of it passes.

Toy Story Mania Is Another Excellent Choice

Toy Story Mania is one of the easiest rainy-day rides for me to recommend.

The ride is indoors.

The substantial queue is indoors, and even portions that put you closer to the outside are covered.

And it’s an attraction almost everybody can enjoy.

So if you’re in Toy Story Land when it starts raining, Toy Story Mania is a pretty obvious place to head.

Just remember that everybody else standing in Toy Story Land may have precisely the same brilliant idea.

😂

That’s another rainy-day Disney reality.

The indoor attractions don’t suddenly become secret.

Wait times can react quickly when people start fleeing outdoor areas.

Star Tours Is an Easy Rainy-Day Option

Star Tours is another one I would keep in my back pocket.

The queue and attraction are protected from the weather, and Star Tours often doesn’t command the kind of enormous wait you see at some of Hollywood Studios’ headliners.

That makes it particularly useful if you’re not trying to kill an hour.

Maybe the radar shows 20 minutes of rain.

Go ride Star Tours.

By the time you’ve walked through the queue, watched the preshow material, flown somewhere in the Star Wars universe and returned to Earth, you may walk outside to completely different weather.

That’s exactly how I like to use indoor attractions during Florida rain.

What About Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster?

Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets is an indoor coaster.

So unlike Slinky Dog Dash, this isn’t a coaster that’s racing around an exposed outdoor track.

That makes it a potentially useful rainy-day attraction if it is operating.

And that last part is important enough to keep repeating.

Don’t build your entire rainy-day strategy around what should be open.

Use the app and see what is open.

Operational conditions can change quickly during bad weather.

Slinky Dog Dash Is NOT Where I’m Heading in a Storm

This one is obvious.

Slinky Dog Dash is an outdoor roller coaster.

If the weather is bad enough to affect outdoor attraction operations, this is one of the rides you should expect to be potentially impacted.

And even if conditions are mild enough that it’s operating?

Do I particularly want to ride an outdoor roller coaster while rain is pelting me in the face?

Not really.

😂

Save Slinky for later.

Florida weather changes quickly. The ride may reopen after the storm passes, and you’ll have a much better time when you’re not being pressure-washed while riding through Andy’s backyard.

Alien Swirling Saucers Is a Check-the-App Attraction

Alien Swirling Saucers is a little trickier because the attraction itself is covered.

But I wouldn’t make a blanket promise that it will operate through whatever weather Florida throws at Hollywood Studios.

Weather conditions matter, particularly when thunderstorms and lightning are involved.

So this goes into my:

Look at My Disney Experience before walking over there

category.

If it’s operating and you’re already nearby, great.

If it isn’t, Toy Story Mania is the much more obvious rainy-day destination in Toy Story Land.

Tower of Terror Has One Big Rainy-Day Problem

Tower of Terror sounds perfect on paper.

The attraction is indoors.

It’s long enough to give you something substantial to do.

And honestly, a thunderstorm outside the Hollywood Tower Hotel feels thematically appropriate. 😂

But there’s a problem.

The queue can leave you exposed to the weather.

Depending on how much of the queue is in use and where you’re standing, you may spend quite a bit of time outside before reaching the indoor portions.

That’s not a huge deal in a light rain.

In a downpour?

Different story.

I wouldn’t walk across Hollywood Studios specifically because I thought Tower of Terror was going to keep me completely dry.

Check the wait. Look at the weather. Look at the queue situation.

Then decide.

Shows Are One of Your BEST Rainy-Day Strategies

This is where Hollywood Studios really starts to shine as a rainy-day park.

Because Hollywood Studios has a lot of shows.

And some of them are long enough to get you through a decent chunk of a passing storm.

Even better, several have waiting areas where you can get at least some protection before the show begins.

If the radar says:

Rain for the next 30–45 minutes

I am absolutely looking at the entertainment schedule.

Because sometimes the best rainy-day attraction isn’t a ride at all.

Frozen Sing-Along Celebration Is One of My Favorite Rain Pivots

If I’m looking at the Hollywood Studios entertainment schedule while it’s pouring, For the First Time in Forever: A Frozen Sing-Along Celebration is going to be near the top of my list.

First of all, it’s a legitimately entertaining show. This isn’t something I’d only recommend because you’re desperate to get out of the rain.

The show itself lasts around half an hour, which is fantastic when you’re trying to wait out a Florida shower. Even better, the waiting area before you enter the theater is covered and can hold quite a few people.

That matters.

You aren’t standing in the rain for 20 minutes waiting to get inside the thing that’s supposed to be keeping you out of the rain.

Between waiting for the next performance, getting everyone seated and watching the show, you can potentially disappear indoors for a pretty substantial chunk of time.

And if you walk back outside and the rain has stopped?

Winner winner chicken dinner.

The Little Mermaid Is Another Great Option

The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure is another show I’d look at immediately.

Like Frozen, the attraction itself is indoors and the waiting area provides protection from the weather.

The actual show isn’t quite as long as Frozen, but that’s not necessarily a problem.

Sometimes you aren’t trying to escape a two-hour storm. You’re looking at the radar and thinking:

Okay. This mess should blow through in about 20 minutes.

Perfect.

Go see Ariel.

This is also why I wouldn’t necessarily save all the Hollywood Studios shows for some predetermined point in your itinerary. When Florida weather starts misbehaving, shows give you tremendous flexibility.

Use them.

Beauty and the Beast Can Work—With a Caveat

Beauty and the Beast – Live on Stage is another option because the theater is covered.

You’re protected once you’re sitting inside, and there usually isn’t some enormous indoor queue you have to navigate first.

But this is one where weather conditions themselves matter.

It’s an outdoor theater, even though the seating area is under cover. Disney can modify, delay or cancel outdoor entertainment when weather conditions make performing unsafe.

So again, don’t assume.

Check My Disney Experience before walking all the way down Sunset Boulevard because you’ve decided Beauty and the Beast is going to save you from the storm.

If it’s running and you’re nearby?

Absolutely.

Sit down. Get dry-ish. Watch Belle fall in love with a Beast.

Could be worse.

Indiana Jones Can Be Another Good Place to Hide

Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular has an enormous covered theater, which makes it another potentially useful rainy-day option.

And this is a substantial show.

If the timing works, you can spend a nice chunk of your rainy afternoon sitting down instead of wandering around Hollywood Studios in a poncho.

But just like Beauty and the Beast, this is a live show with outdoor elements.

Bad weather can affect performances.

So don’t think:

It’s covered! Indiana Jones will definitely be running!

Think:

It’s covered! Let me check the app and see if Indiana Jones is running.

That’s the recurring theme here.

Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After Is Indoors, But the Queue Isn’t Ideal

I love Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After.

And the show itself is indoors, which sounds perfect for a rainy day.

But there’s a catch.

A lot of the waiting happens outside the theater, and while there is some protection from the elements, I wouldn’t consider this one of Hollywood Studios’ best places to shelter during a serious downpour.

If you can time your arrival well and get into the theater relatively quickly?

Great.

If you’re going to spend 20 minutes standing outside in sideways rain before being admitted?

That’s not much of a rain strategy.

😂

I’d look at the showtime, assess how hard it’s raining and decide accordingly.

Don’t Forget Walt Disney Presents and the Animation Experiences

You also have some lower-key indoor options that can be extremely useful when the weather is lousy.

Walt Disney Presents is exactly the kind of attraction people walk past repeatedly on a sunny day and suddenly appreciate enormously when it’s raining.

You can slow down. Look through the exhibits. Enjoy the air conditioning. And most importantly at this particular moment, be indoors.

The newly reopened Magic of Disney Animation area also gives families additional indoor experiences to consider, including its animation-focused attractions and character experiences.

These aren’t necessarily places I’d cross the entire park to reach in the middle of a torrential downpour.

But if you’re nearby?

Absolutely take advantage of them.

The goal is to string together enough protected experiences that you aren’t repeatedly marching across the park through the worst of the weather.

Shopping Can Actually Be a Pretty Good Rain Strategy

Normally I would tell you not to waste a rainstorm hiding in a gift shop when Hollywood Studios has so many actual attractions you could be doing.

But if you wanted to shop anyway?

Rain is not a bad time to do it.

One really useful thing about Hollywood Studios is that many of the stores along Hollywood Boulevard and Sunset Boulevard are fairly contiguous.

You can make your way through quite a bit of shopping while staying indoors most of the time, with relatively short breaks where you’ll need to step outside.

That’s especially nice if you had souvenirs on your list anyway.

However…

There is one tiny problem.

Everyone else has this idea too.

😂

When a surprise downpour starts, people flock to the stores.

And they don’t just flock to the stores.

They flock to the stores wearing wet ponchos.

So now you have hundreds of soggy Disney guests packed into a gift shop together.

It’s not exactly relaxing retail therapy.

Still, if the alternative is standing outside in a torrential downpour, I’ll take the soggy spirit jersey convention.

Check for a Last-Minute Table-Service Reservation

This is one of my favorite strategies because I’ve actually done it.

The last time I was at Hollywood Studios when the weather suddenly turned horrible, I opened My Disney Experience and checked:

Is there anywhere I can eat right now?

Sure enough, Hollywood & Vine had availability.

So instead of spending the next hour wandering around getting wetter and increasingly annoyed, I went inside and had a nice character dinner.

That’s a pretty freaking good pivot.

You aren’t merely hiding.

You’re accomplishing something you might have wanted to do anyway.

You’re eating dinner. You’re sitting down. You’re in air conditioning. You’re drying off. And in the case of Hollywood & Vine, you’re meeting characters at the same time.

By the time I finished, I’d killed something like an hour or an hour and a half without having to fight the rain.

Some Restaurants Will Be Easier to Grab Than Others

Obviously, you can’t count on a last-minute reservation.

But it’s worth checking.

I would probably look at Hollywood & Vine and 50’s Prime Time Cafe first simply because I think you may have a better shot at finding a last-minute opening there.

I’d still check everything.

Maybe somebody canceled Sci-Fi Dine-In five minutes ago.

Maybe there’s suddenly an opening at Roundup Rodeo BBQ.

Maybe Hollywood Brown Derby has something.

You don’t know until you look.

I just wouldn’t make my rainy-day survival plan dependent upon walking into one of the park’s harder-to-book restaurants without a reservation.

This is another place where the app is your friend.

Some Quick-Service Restaurants Are MUCH Better in the Rain

If you don’t want a table-service meal, Hollywood Studios has several quick-service restaurants that work well during bad weather.

ABC Commissary is probably one of the most obvious.

You can order food, sit inside and get out of the weather for a while.

Backlot Express has indoor seating in addition to its outdoor areas, so that’s another place I’d consider.

And Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo gives you protected seating inside Galaxy’s Edge.

I’m not necessarily choosing these because I think they’re the three greatest culinary experiences at Hollywood Studios.

I’m choosing them because right now they have walls and a roof.

Priorities. 😂

And Some Quick-Service Restaurants Are TERRIBLE Rain Pivots

This is where the distinction between covered and actually protected from a Florida downpour becomes very important.

Woody’s Lunch Box?

Love it.

Would I choose it as my shelter during torrential rain?

Absolutely not.

Ronto Roasters?

Same problem.

And the Sunset Boulevard quick-service locations—Fairfax Fare, Rosie’s All-American Cafe and Catalina Eddie’s—have seating where you can technically get under cover.

Technically.

But there’s a big difference between sitting beneath an umbrella or partial covering during a light sprinkle and trying to eat while rain is blowing sideways into your table.

Your chair may already be wet.

Your table may be wet.

The floor is wet.

You’re wet.

Your fries are considering becoming mashed potatoes.

😂

If it’s barely sprinkling, fine.

If it’s pouring, I would head somewhere with an actual indoor dining room.

Don’t Build Your Rain Strategy Around Fantasmic

I love Fantasmic.

You know this.

It is my favorite nighttime spectacular at Disney World. Period. Full stop.

But Fantasmic is an outdoor show, and weather can affect performances.

A little rain doesn’t automatically mean you’re not going to get Fantasmic that night. But as conditions worsen, delays or cancellations become possible.

And frankly, there is another consideration here:

Do you actually want to sit in the Fantasmic theater while it’s pouring rain?

😂

Maybe you do.

Maybe you’re wearing the world’s greatest poncho. Maybe your shoes are miraculously dry. Maybe you’ve wrapped yourself in some kind of personal waterproof Disney bubble.

You do you.

I don’t particularly want to sit outside in a downpour for Fantasmic, and I LOVE Fantasmic.

Check the weather. Check the app. Check the performance status.

And make the decision that makes sense for you.

The Chinese Theatre Projection Shows Can Be Affected Too

The same basic principle applies to Disney Movie Magic and The Wonderful World of Animation.

They’re outdoor nighttime experiences.

If you’re dealing with a light sprinkle and Disney is still presenting the show, great.

But don’t assume that your carefully planned nighttime entertainment is immune to worsening weather.

This is particularly important if you’ve been spending the entire afternoon thinking:

It’s okay that it’s raining. We’ll just make it to the nighttime shows.

Maybe.

Or maybe the weather gets worse.

Build flexibility into your plans.

Use the Weather Radar, Not Just the Little Rain Icon

This is one of the biggest practical differences between muddling through a rainy Disney day and actually having a strategy.

Look at the radar.

There’s a huge difference between:

A nasty band of rain is going to pass through for 30 minutes

and

This entire system has parked itself over Central Florida for the foreseeable future.

If I see 30 or 40 minutes of bad weather coming, I’m thinking strategically.

Can I get into Frozen?

Can I ride Rise?

Can I eat dinner?

Can I shop?

Can I hop onto Toy Story Mania?

Can I disappear into an indoor attraction until this passes?

That’s a completely manageable situation.

If I look at the radar and it’s just rain…rain…rain…rain…for hours?

Now I’m making a different calculation.

My Hollywood Studios Rain Strategy

If the skies opened up while I was at Hollywood Studios, this is essentially what I would do.

First, I’d check My Disney Experience and the radar.

If this looked like a relatively short storm, I’d immediately start looking for an indoor experience near wherever I happened to be.

If I’m in Galaxy’s Edge, maybe that’s Rise or Smugglers Run.

If I’m in Toy Story Land, Toy Story Mania.

Near Echo Lake? Frozen or Star Tours.

Near the front of the park? Runaway Railway, assuming it’s operating.

If a showtime lined up beautifully with the storm, even better.

And if it happened to be around lunch or dinner?

I’m checking restaurant availability.

I wouldn’t march from Galaxy’s Edge all the way to Sunset Boulevard through a downpour because some website told me Tower of Terror was a good rainy-day ride.

The best rainy-day attraction is often the good indoor attraction that’s reasonably close to you right now.

That’s the strategy.

Minimize your exposure.

Stay somewhere substantial long enough for the worst weather to pass.

Then reassess.

Sometimes the Best Strategy Is to Wait It Out

Florida rain can be ridiculous.

It can also be remarkably temporary.

I’ve watched gorgeous Disney days turn into absolute deluges and then eventually settle down again.

So if you’re looking at the radar and it appears that the storm is going to pass, don’t necessarily abandon the park immediately.

Go eat.

See Frozen.

Ride Rise.

Do some shopping.

Give the weather a chance to change.

This is especially true if you’re already at Hollywood Studios in the late afternoon.

Because as we just talked about in my Hollywood Studios at Night guide, this park is absolutely fantastic after dark.

A miserable 5 PM rainstorm does not necessarily mean you’re going to have a miserable 8 PM.

But Sometimes the Rain Wins

And this brings us right back to where we started.

There is no Disney World medal for suffering.

If your clothes are soaked…

Your kids are done…

Your stroller is wet…

Your shoes are squishing…

Outdoor attractions are down…

Shows are being canceled…

And the radar looks like a giant green blob…

Go back to the hotel.

Seriously.

You can have a fantastic Disney vacation and still decide that one particular rainy evening isn’t worth salvaging.

I’ve spent enough time at Disney World in the rain to know that there’s a point where you’re no longer having fun.

You are simply enduring Disney World.

That’s not the goal.

Is Hollywood Studios Worth Visiting in the Rain?

I actually think Hollywood Studios is one of the easier Disney World parks to manage in the rain.

There are plenty of indoor rides.

There are excellent indoor shows.

There are restaurants where you can sit down and wait out the weather.

There are shops where you can stay mostly dry.

And because so many Hollywood Studios attractions are substantial experiences, it’s entirely possible to hide from a 30- or 40-minute rainstorm without feeling like you’ve wasted your time.

But I would never tell you that Hollywood Studios in a torrential downpour is secretly magical.

It’s wet. It’s inconvenient. And after a while, it’s pretty freaking miserable.

Bring the poncho.

Bring the umbrella.

Protect your shoes if you can.

Watch the radar.

Use My Disney Experience.

Pivot to indoor attractions instead of stubbornly following your original itinerary.

And most importantly, give yourself some grace.

Sometimes you’ll walk out of Frozen and discover that the rain has stopped.

Sometimes you’ll have a lovely character dinner at Hollywood & Vine while the storm passes.

And sometimes you’ll look down at your completely saturated sneakers and realize:

Yep. The egg timer has gone off.

Time to go back to the hotel. 😂
