Overview

• The 2026 lineup includes Disney’s Animal Kingdom (Jan 20), EPCOT (Feb 12 and Sept 10), Disney’s Hollywood Studios (Apr 22 and Jul 20), Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon (Jun 25, Aug 4, Aug 20), and CalifoCalifornia Adventure (Feb 23).
• Three additional 2025 dates were added at Animal Kingdom on October 29, November 18, and December 15, restoring rare after‑dark access to experiences like Pandora for DVC members.
• For the late‑2025 Animal Kingdom additions, early registration opens October 2 at 11 a.m. ET for members with qualifying resort reservations, with general registration on October 9.
• For 2026 events, early/general registration windows are set months ahead: Dec 16/19 for winter dates, Feb 26/Mar 5 for spring, and Jun 4/11 for summer.
• Access is limited to members eligible for Membership Extras (often DVC‑Y status tied to direct purchases), with one event allowed per season, party sizes capped (typically member plus up to four or the reservation party), and sign‑ups managed via a virtual queue with limited capacity.
