Current Disney Park Pass Reservation Availability the Week of December 20th
If you still need to book your Disney Park Pass Reservations for next week, here is the latest availability!
Disney Resort Guests
There is currently plenty of Park Pass Reservation availability for the week of December 20th if you’re a Disney Resort Guest! As of this writing, Disney Resort Guests can make reservations at all four theme parks from December 20th through December 23rd.
On December 24th, 25th, and 26th, the only park currently unavailable is Magic Kingdom. Resort Guests can still make reservations at EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom on those three dates.
Theme Park Ticket Guests
Currently, Theme Park Ticket Guests have the same Park Pass Reservation availability as Resort Guests for the week of December 20th. From December 20th through December 23rd, all four parks are available for reservation booking.
However, December 24th, 25th, and 26th are currently full at Magic Kingdom. EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom have reservations available those three days.
Annual Passholders
While Disney Resort Guests and Theme Park Ticket Guests have historically mirrored each other’s Park Pass Reservation availability, Annual Passholders typically have an entirely different availability calendar. This pattern holds true for the week of December 20th. On Sunday, December 20th, and Monday, December 21st, Annual Passholders can currently make reservations at Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
On December 22nd, 23rd, 24th, and 26th, Annual Passholders can make a Park Pass Reservation at any of the four theme parks.
Finally, on Friday, December 25th, Annual Passholders can currently book a Park Pass Reservation at EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
So while there are some parks starting to fill up on Christmas Day, each Guest type still has three theme parks as of this writing with available Park Pass Reservations that day! Be sure to make your reservations FAST before they run out!
