It’s no April Fools’ Day joke. Walt Disney World’s official blog just revealed that for the first time since 2019, all six Disney World parks - all four theme parks and two water parks - will open to the public at the same time.

In celebration of Blizzard Beach’s 30th anniversary, the water park will also be open to guests this summer, in addition to Typhoon Lagoon.

Though Blizzard Beach will temporarily close between May 1 and May 20 for a little “melt away” time, on May 21, it will join the other parks offering its own version of frosty fun. Through September 7, 2025, Disney World guests can enjoy the water wonders and thrills from both Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon.

Additionally, Walt Disney Resort guests this year will be eligible for free water park access on their arrival day.

And to the delight of nighttime water park goers looking to beat the heat, on select dates between May 23 and September 13, Typhoon Lagoon turns into an illuminated dance party full of splashy fun, complimentary snacks and interaction with Toy Story pals with the launch of its H20 Glow After Hours at Typhoon Lagoon.

The nighttime extravaganza offers special deals for young families including kids’ tickets for $42.50, half off the price of an adult ticket. Annual Passholders and Disney Vacation Club members offer additional savings. H20 Glow tickets are currently on sale for guests of select Resort hotels while general tickets go on sale beginning April 4.
