Walt Disney World Resort has opened bookings for November and December 2026, allowing guests to plan their holiday vacations well in advance. Theme park tickets, resort stays, and vacation packages are now available for the final months of the year, the merriest season, when the parks are bursting with festive decorations and special events.
Guests can now secure their preferred resort and dates ahead of the busy holiday season, including stays at any of Walt Disney World’s more than 25 themed resort hotels. These properties often fill up quickly during November and December, when Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, EPCOT’s International Festival of the Holidays, and New Year’s Eve celebrations draw large crowds.
Disney also confirmed that a major perk will continue through the 2026 holiday season. Families staying at a Disney Resort hotel who purchase a Disney Dining Plan as part of their package will receive a FREE dining plan for their kids ages 3 to 9. This benefit applies to both the Disney Dining Plan and the Quick-Service Dining Plan, allowing families to enjoy meals across the parks and resorts without worrying about extra costs for children’s meals.
The offer can also be combined with select future discounts. Disney stated that guests may still qualify for additional discounts released later in the year, giving you even more flexibility and value.
With the return of dining plans and the continuation of the free kids dining offer, Disney aims to make 2026 vacations easier to budget and more appealing for families. Guests are encouraged to book early, as prime dates during the holidays often sell out quickly once released.
