Calling all Disney World Annual Passholders, we’ve got some news for you!

Disney World Annual Pass

V.I.PASSHOLDER Summer Days is coming back to Disney World once again this year, and it’s going to be filled with exclusive merch, limited-edition snacks, giveaways, and more. Disney dropped some details before it begins in one month, and we’re sharing it with you!

V.I.PASSHOLDER Summer Days is a celebration of all the fun to be discovered around Walt Disney World Resort throughout the summer. It’s a way Disney shows some extra appreciation to all the guests who visit the park year-round.

During this summer event, Disney World offers Passholders unique opportunities to enjoy the season through limited-time offerings and experiences designed just for them. You’re going to be thrilled to see that this includes things like:

• New Passholder merchandise
• Food & beverage items
• Special discounts
• A new magnet
• And so much more!

The celebration will begin on May 1st, kicking off the summer at Disney World, and end on July 31st. Things like merchandise, food, and magnets will most likely be announced the closer we get to the date, and throughout the summer. Something else we’ve seen in the past during V.I.PASSHOLDER summer has been Passholder lounges, which we’re sure will return.

• The Crystal Palace (lunch and dinner)

However, Passholders can save 40% off (!!!) at their meals at the following spots, Monday to Thursday only from May 1st through July 31st:

For Passholders traveling with non-Passholders, unless otherwise noted, up to 3 Guests can also take advantage of this deal during each location’s regular operating hours.
