Participating Hotels for Walt Disney World Early Park Admission

Get early park admission to the Walt Disney World theme parks when you stay at these resort hotels. Plus, a list of attractions, by park, that are typically operating during early park admission.

Guests staying at Disney World Resort hotels and select other hotels can take advantage of a 30-minute early entry into Walt Disney World theme parks every day.

Upon arriving at the Theme Park, Cast Members will be standing by ready to scan your Magic Band or Key to the World Card to verify your hotel reservation.

If you see a crowd of people, don’t assume they are in line for Early Park Mission. Many people arrive at the parks early to be there for the normal opening time (aka rope drop) and you don’t want to get mixed up with that crowd.

Be sure to look around for the Early Park Admission access points. If you’re unsure where to go, ask a Cast Member, there are plenty of them on duty to assist guests during this time.
