Fun and exciting things happen in the parks every single day at Disney World.
It can seem impossible that anything BETTER could soon come, because it’s already super great. However, we’re entering the time of year where we personally believe everything is getting even MORE magical, because we’re looking forward to Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and even things that are to come to Disney World in early 2024. This week, Disney hit us with a LOT of announcements, and included some that involve all of those things. If you’re looking forward to what the next few months hold, you’re going to want to listen up.
We’re here to share with you what we believe to be the THREE most exciting announcements that Disney World made this week. Who’s ready to celebrate?
NEW Discounts!
Disney announced this week that for families with valid hotel reservations between March 3rd to June 30th, 2024, tickets and dining plans will be HALF PRICE for kiddos ages 3-9.
Yes, that means that in some cases, you can score tickets as low as $50! This is the perfect excuse to plan an early 2024 trip to Disney World, as booking starts on November 14th, 2023. Our friends at Small World Vacations can help you book with this discount, so don’t forget to reach out to them!

EPCOT’s International Festival of the Holidays is a fan-favorite holiday activity for many families. Disney shared with us the Candlelight Processional Dining Package options, each of the Holiday Kitchens that would be available, and even that the Cookie Stroll would return!
We are even MORE excited about the Holidays now!

Disney shared this week that soon, Halloween activities would kick off in Disney Springs that are FREE for families to enjoy.
From live a capella performances, to a DJ that travels around in a jack-o-lantern, there will be plenty of things to enjoy. The best part is that you don’t even need a park ticket to visit Disney Springs.
