Both Disney Water Parks Will Be Open This Summer—Reserve Your Shaded Spot Before It’s Gone
For the first time since 2019, both Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach will be open at Walt Disney World starting May 21, 2025! That’s right, all six Disney World parks—Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom, and now both water parks—will be operating together for the first time in six years.
Since the pandemic closures in 2020, Disney’s water parks have been on a rotating schedule to allow for maintenance and refurbishments. But this summer, will see both parks up and running simultaneously. 2025 also marks the 30th anniversary of Blizzard Beach, making this a milestone summer to celebrate.
And if you’re staying at a Disney Resort hotel in 2025, there’s more good news: water park admission is included on your check-in day! That’s right—you can hit the slides and lazy rivers the moment you arrive. (More details here)
