Disney Vacation Club members who love after-hours access to Walt Disney World parks have new reasons to celebrate. Disney has added three extra Moonlight Magic event dates for 2026, giving eligible members more opportunities to enjoy the parks long after the general public has gone home.
The newly added dates are October 15 at EPCOT, and November 30 and December 22 at Animal Kingdom. One welcome twist in the fine print: eligible members can register for one of these additional dates even if they already attended a Moonlight Magic event earlier in 2026.
For those unfamiliar with the program, Moonlight Magic events open select Walt Disney World parks exclusively to DVC members after regular operating hours. The experience typically features character meet-and-greets, dramatically shorter ride wait times, and, of course, the undeniable charm of wandering a theme park at night with a much thinner crowd — plus themed snacks. Earlier in 2026, Hollywood Studios and Typhoon Lagoon Water Park also hosted Moonlight Magic nights.
Disney has not yet announced Moonlight Magic dates for 2027, so members eager to take part should keep an eye on official DVC communications for updates as the year winds down.
