A MAJOR Change Just Hit Disney World!

Who’s ready for some water fun at Disney World this summer?!

Typhoon Lagoon

We love the four theme parks at Disney World, but people have got to stop sleeping on the Disney World water parks, which we LOVE! It’s a great place to get that Disney magic while cooling down on a hot day. Well, start booking your water park days, because Typhoon Lagoon is now open!

After closing down in February, Typhoon Lagoon is officially open for guests to enjoy this summer! The water park is Disney’s oldest water park, and it’s a blast for the whole family. From water slides to one of the largest wave pools in the world, you’re going to want to plan a day there.

It’s a big summer for Disney World, because both Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach will be open for the summer — at the same time!

If you have a Disney World vacation this summer, you’re going to want to hear about this sweet deal. Disney resort guests will receive a free water park entry for their arrival day from May 26th to September 8th. This is a promotion you seriously won’t want to miss out on, especially with both water parks open. The window is fairly big, so try to plan a trip within those dates.

Also, don’t forget that Typhoon Lagoon’s after-hours event, H2O Glow Nights, is back again in 2026! Getting to stay past closing at the water park means fewer crowds and shorter wait times. On top of that, the night will bring guests exclusive character meet-and-greets, tasty treats, and more! H2O Glow Nights will take place on select nights from June 2nd to September 5th, 2026.
