Disney’s Blizzard Beach Opening Date Announced for Late 2024

Disney has posted dates for what seems to have become a semi-annual transition of their water parks opening and closing. Disney’s Blizzard Beach is scheduled to re-open on Monday, November 4, 2024. Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon will have its last day of this season on Sunday, November 3, 2024.

Historically, until a few years ago, the water parks were open simultaneously throughout most of the year. Each park is closed yearly for a brief annual refurbishment. However, after an extended closure during the pandemic, only one water park reopened…at a time. Therefore, in the past couple of seasons, we’ve seen Blizzard Beach open in the cooler months of the year. Then, Typhoon Lagoon takes over between March and early November.

You might be aware that a new benefit for Disney Resort Hotel guests will debut in 2025. Per Disney, guests can enjoy complimentary access to a water park (based on availability) on their check-in day in 2025. If you intend to use this benefit, you’ll want to check operating hours for both water parks ahead of your stay.

We would love to see the return of both parks being open simultaneously and for longer hours in the hotter months of the year. If you enjoy spending time at the pool but have never visited either of the water parks, I encourage you to take advantage of the new benefit if applicable. We spend a good deal of time at Typhoon Lagoon and enjoy the relaxed vacation vibe the park offers. However, those with little ones might enjoy the fun theming of Blizzard Beach a bit more.
