Both Disney Water Parks Open This Summer! 💦

Double the fun! For the first time since the pandemic, both Disney Water Parks will be open this summer.

Get ready to make a splash! For the first time since the pandemic, both of Walt Disney World’s water parks will be open this summer — so grab your swimsuits and sunscreen!

Since Disney started offering free water park entry to resort hotel guests on their check-in day earlier this year, demand has been soaring. Now, in response to guest requests (and a whole lot of excitement), Disney is making waves by opening a second water park.

Here’s when you can dive in to Disney Water Parks

🌊 May 1Typhoon Lagoon kicks off its season, while Blizzard Beach takes a short break for a refresh.

❄️ May 21Blizzard Beach is back and will stay open through September 7, nearly a week past Labor Day! At that point, Typhoon Lagoon will keep the fun going for the rest of its planned season.

💦 Make a splash without soaking your wallet! 💦

A day of water park fun at Disney typically costs $74 for guests 10 and older and $68 for little swimmers ages 3 to 9. But here’s the cool part—you can score lower prices outside the peak summer season, and if you’re an Annual Passholder or Disney Vacation Club member, there are even more ways to save.

So, whether you’re riding the waves or floating your cares away, there’s a way to dive in for less! 🌊✨

Two incredible water parks, endless ways to cool off — this summer at Disney World is going to be an absolute splash! 💦✨
