Overview
- Typhoon Lagoon will end operations on September 8, 2026 and close for its annual refurbishment beginning September 9, 2026.
- From September 9 forward Blizzard Beach will be the only open Walt Disney World water park and will remain available as a separately ticketed option.
- The Cool Kids Summer free water‑park perk for eligible Disney Resorts Collection arrivals runs through September 8, 2026 and does not apply to guests arriving September 9 or later.
- Disney says both water parks and the complimentary check‑in perk will return together in summer 2027; Typhoon Lagoon’s work is expected to last several months with no firm reopening date announced.
- Having both parks open this summer was rare since the post‑pandemic alternating schedule, and the closure reduces guest choice by removing Typhoon Lagoon’s large wave‑pool, tropical theming and related arrival‑day planning options.
