Extra Magic Extended: These Benefits Will Continue Through 2025 at Walt Disney World!
Here’s magical news that’s sure to add even more sparkle to your Walt Disney World vacation plans.
Disney has officially announced that the Early Entry and Extended Evening Theme Park Hours benefits for select Walt Disney World Resort hotel guests are set to continue through 2025. Let’s break down what this means and how it can enhance your Disney experience!
Early Theme Park Entry
Early Theme Park Entry gives Disney Resort hotel guests a magical head start with 30-minute early access to any of the four theme parks, every day. This means you can enjoy select attractions, experiences, and maybe even that coveted photo spot before the parks open to the general public. It’s a fantastic way to maximize your time and beat some of the crowds!
We use this extra time to hit two rides before the gates open to non-Disney Resort guests!
Extended Evening Hours
For those staying at Disney Deluxe Resorts and Deluxe Villas, the magic doesn’t end when the sun goes down.
Extended Evening Hours are available on select dates at select parks, allowing you extra time to enjoy the thrills and chills of your favorite rides and attractions.
Imagine having more time to explore the enchanting realms of Magic Kingdom or the futuristic landscapes of EPCOT under the stars. This benefit requires valid theme park admission and a Resort ID.
Please note: Disney World releases these dates approximately 60 days in advance only. Bummer for us early planners!
Participating Hotels
The Extended Evening Hours benefit is exclusive to guests staying at Disney Deluxe Resorts and Disney Deluxe Villa Resorts, including the Disney Dolphin, Swan and Swan Reserve, among others.
Early Theme Park Entry, on the other hand, is available to guests at a wider range of Disney Resort hotels and select other hotels, ensuring that the magic is accessible to as many Disney enthusiasts as possible.
What This Means for Your Disney Vacation
With these benefits extended through 2025, planning your Disney vacation just got even more exciting. Early Theme Park Entry and Extended Evening Hours offer unique opportunities to enjoy even more magic during your stay.
Whether it’s starting your day with a sunrise adventure or ending it with nighttime enchantment, these benefits ensure your Disney days are filled with unforgettable moments.
Remember, to make the most of these perks, you’ll need valid theme park admission and a Resort ID. So, if you’re dreaming of a Disney vacation filled with extra magic, now is the time to start planning your 2025 getaway.
And, as always, staying informed and choosing the right accommodations can make all the difference in creating the perfect Disney experience.
