BAY LAKE, Fla. – Walt Disney World is rolling out a fresh set of summer deals designed to give families more flexibility, more value, and more reasons to make memories in 2026.
New ticket
A new after-2 p.m. ticket allows guests to skip the morning rush and still catch all their must-do attractions. With longer summer park hours, visitors can take advantage of special evening entertainment, including Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away.
The ticket covers one of the four theme parks per day, with no theme park reservation required. A 2-day option starts at $235, plus tax, and a 3-day option starts at $329, plus tax.
The arrival window runs from May 26 through July 29.
An important note: any dining reservations, Lightning Lane selections, or mobile orders made before 2 p.m. will not be valid with this ticket.
