Between these resort reductions and this particular provide on tickets, Florida residents can go to Walt Disney World this summer season and early fall and truly have spend much less cash than the identical dates and expertise would’ve value in 2022 (costs are up barely as in comparison with 2023). It’s comparatively unprecedented for worth decreases at Walt Disney World, however that’s exactly what we’ve been seeing when evaluating 2024 prices to 2022.
When it comes to the small print, this 2024 Walt Disney World ticket deal will provide Florida residents the flexibility to purchase a 4-Day Disney Uncover Ticket for simply $59 per day, plus tax (complete worth: $235 plus tax). A specifically priced 3-day ticket can be accessible.

Proof of Florida residency required. All adults might want to present proof of Florida residency at park entrance. Each a theme park reservation through the Disney Park Move system and legitimate theme park admission for a similar park on the identical date are required.

For those who’re making an attempt to decide on the most effective dates to go to or ones to keep away from, seek the advice of our 2024 Walt Disney World Crowd Calendars. There are going to be many dates which have low crowds throughout this Floridian ticket promo, together with however not restricted to your complete month of Might up till Memorial Day weekend in addition to the second week in August via the tip of the ticket promo.
Past these date ranges, the second half of April additionally shouldn’t be too unhealthy nor ought to the primary half of June. Each of these are extra of wildcards, although; Spring Break could have stragglers that maintain crowds elevated till the second half of April.
An excellent greater unknown is what Walt Disney World does in late Might or early June. They may do a summer season kickoff with a brand new particular occasion, Encanto leisure, the opening of CommuniCore Corridor, and extra. The second half of June may also seemingly convey with it the debut of Tiana’s Bayou Journey, with previews previous to that.
Past that, summer season crowds are difficult to foretell. Walt Disney World hasn’t had a very “regular” summer season season since 2018. Final 12 months, the climate was tough and blockouts on reductions (like this similar ticket deal) disrupted crowd dynamics. The 12 months prior, pent-up demand collided with hovering fuel costs and resulted in an earlier peak than regular.
The 12 months earlier than that, the submit reopening rush hit a wall because of the delta variant. The 12 months earlier than that, the parks have been closed earlier than reopening to very low crowds and capability constraints. Even again in 2019, the looming opening of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge threw a monkey wrench into attendance dynamics, as many followers waited for that.
Nevertheless, we’re beginning to suppose that Summer season 2024 will be the 12 months that Walt Disney World will get again on observe with common attendance developments. It’s been so lengthy since we’ve seen a “regular” summer season that we don’t even actually know what one would seem like, however no matter it’s, this 12 months might be it!
Largely, that’s as a result of Walt Disney World has fine-tuned its strategy to blockouts and pricing. Summer season costs are arguably nonetheless a bit too aggressive relative to demand, however there isn’t the identical unevenness as final 12 months. Specifically, you may discover that this ticket deal doesn’t have blockouts for Memorial Day, Independence Day, or Labor Day weekends. That alone, small as it might appear (particularly since park reservations are nonetheless in place for this ticket), is progress!
As we’ve talked about elsewhere, Memorial Day and Labor Day are already below-average vacation weekends, and Fourth of July isn’t almost as unhealthy because it was once. So not blocking these dates out makes full sense–particularly after the softness over these holidays final 12 months.
This isn’t the primary Florida resident low cost of the 12 months. The primary possibility was the 2024 Florida Resident Disney Thrills Tickets, priced at $199 for a 2-day ticket or $219 for a 3-day ticket.
Final summer season and fall, the ticket deal (akin to this one) was $209 for 3-day tickets or $229 for 4-day tickets. So the worth is larger this 12 months, however not by an entire lot, and in addition, there are not any blockouts for the aforementioned summer season holidays.
Going again additional, Walt Disney World provided a 2-Day Disney Weekday Magic Ticket for $175 plus tax, or a 3-Day Disney Weekday Magic Ticket for $195 plus tax final winter and spring. That was considerably cheaper than the 2024 deal, nevertheless it was additionally weekdays solely.
The 2022 Disney Weekday Magic Ticket low cost was related, simply cheaper. These 2-Day Florida Resident tickets value $149, the 3-Day model was $179, and the 4-Day Florida Resident ticket possibility value $199. Moreover, there have been fewer blockout dates.
Again in 2021, Florida resident ticket costs for the primary half of the 12 months have been $149 for 2-day tickets, $179 for 3-day tickets, and $199 for 4-day tickets. (These had extra blockout dates–however have been additionally accessible throughout a busier season.)
Publish-reopening, Florida Resident Uncover Tickets began at $130 per ticket for the 2-day ticket. The three-day possibility was $174 per ticket and the 4-day Florida Resident Disney Magic Flex Ticket was $195 per ticket. None of these tickets have been restricted to weekdays-only.
There are a few attention-grabbing adjustments right here. The primary is that this ticket deal is as soon as once more not restricted to weekdays-only. That is going to be essential to many Floridians; working 9-5 jobs Monday via Friday made the prior two resident tickets non-starters for a lot of followers.
For our half, we’re happy to see Walt Disney World not block out weekends. For the final 12 months, Saturday and Sundays have been the least-busy days of the week at Walt Disney World, which is a development partially as a consequence of ticket deal blockouts. That development has began to alter in 2024 as Disney has (belatedly) realized that weekends have been slower.
In the end, the Disney Uncover Florida Resident Ticket provide is one of the simplest ways for locals to save lots of on park admission proper now…until you’ll get sufficient mileage out of an Annual Move to make that well worth the cash. Frankly, we suspect that’ll be true for a lot of Floridians who’ve an curiosity in Walt Disney World.
On a optimistic observe, a minimum of this ticket is beginning on April 2, 2024. That’s over a month sooner than final 12 months, when it started on Might 16. Whereas I personally would wish to use my restricted admissions strategically–and thus not throughout Spring Break season–I may undoubtedly see prioritizing the second half of April and early Might, earlier than the summer season warmth and humidity arrive in full pressure. Possibly saving my final couple of visits till Tiana’s Bayou Journey opens and the brand new (potential) summer season celebration begins in June 2024.
It’ll be attention-grabbing to see what occurs this summer season at Walt Disney World with attendance. Whereas this isn’t going to considerably transfer the needle on general crowd ranges, it being legitimate on a regular basis–together with weekends and holidays–means there seemingly received’t be bizarre quirks or sudden drops throughout instances that might in any other case be busy. (The brand new Magic Tickets for most of the people additionally assist make sure that.)
This needs to be an attention-grabbing saga to comply with, and it’s nearly sure that we haven’t seen the tip of Walt Disney World’s efforts to woo again former followers and pull “levers” to incentivize extra demand and visitor spending. Keep tuned–there’s absolutely extra to return within the days, weeks, and months forward!
