Disney Vacation Club members enrolled in the Membership Magic Beyond program have a new perk to look forward to. Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse are now greeting members in brand-new ski outfits created exclusively for this offering. The outfits are unique to DVC and will not appear in standard park character meet-and-greets, giving members a fresh reason to stop by for photos.
Meet and mingle with special Disney Characters daily from 5:30 PM to 8:30 PM (subject to change) at Disney Vacation Club ImaginAtrium – A Member Lounge at EPCOT. The enrolled Member can bring up to 4 guests or the number of guests on their resort stay reservation, whichever is greater. Available 7 days a week. Capacity restrictions may apply. ~Disney Vacation Club
These new ski costumes draw inspiration from classic winter resorts. Mickey and Minnie appear in bright, cozy gear with themed accessories that highlight their seasonal style, and how cute is that backdrop? I’ll take one of those hot cocoa mugs! This meet-and-greet is only available to members with the upgraded package, adding a bit of exclusivity without complicating the regular character lineup inside the theme parks.
Membership Magic Beyond is an enhanced-benefits package available to DVC members for $99 per calendar year. Membership Magic Beyond continues to include other benefits designed to make each trip a little easier. Priority access to DVC Member lounges remains one of the most practical features. Lounges such as the Member Lounge in EPCOT and the space inside Bay Lake Tower often see high demand, and priority helps members find available seating more reliably, especially during busy weeks.
Eligible Members can purchase the 2025 benefits package for $99, valid through December 31, 2025.
The 2026 benefits package can be purchased for $99 starting December 9, 2025, for usage January 1 through December 31, 2026.
Another standout perk arrives in 2026 with specially priced 5-day weekday Walt Disney World theme park tickets (saving you up to 10%!). These member-exclusive tickets are meant to support more extended vacations with built-in savings and predictable pricing. For families planning annual trips, the ticket option adds long-term value to the $99 yearly cost.
Disney notes that Membership Magic Beyond will continue to rotate smaller perks and bonuses throughout the year. While these vary, the ongoing updates help keep the program relevant as member needs shift.
Exclusive character photo moments remain one of the most memorable parts of any Disney vacation, and a limited-access meet-and-greet with Mickey and Minnie dressed in winter gear adds a fun, collectible layer to the DVC experience. For members already enrolled or considering the upgrade, the new ski-outfit appearance adds another warm reason to explore the program’s benefits.
