Radiator Springs Racers will remain closed all day today, May 26. Cast Members are reportedly testing the attraction out of an abundance of caution.

We don’t know why Luigi’s Rollickin’ Roadsters is closed, but Mater’s Junkyard Jamboree is still open.

The CHEAPEST Days to Visit Disney World in 2022

There’s no reason to sugarcoat it: a trip to Disney World can be EXPENSIVE. 

Disney World is expensive!

From the price of your ticket, to food and souvenirs, there are lots of things to consider when pricing out your Disney vacation. Luckily, there are a few ways you can save money. Disney World occasionally offers discounts on hotel rooms, and if you head to Disney in the off-season, you could even save on your park tickets, too!

Let’s take a look at some of the cheapest days in 2022 to visit Disney World. As a disclaimer before we begin, these prices are based off a one-day, single park ticket with no add-ons. Adding the park hopper option or increasing the number of days on the ticket will change the price.

August

Single-day Disney World tickets start at $109 per ticket. Tickets are generally not going to be this low in the height of summer when families are taking vacations, but towards the end of summer and into fall, you’ll start to see some days at this price point.

Heading to Disney at the end of summer can save you some money!

From August 22nd-25th and from August 29th-31st, you can get your Disney World park ticket for $109! This is up to $35 cheaper than ticket prices on other days in August. Tickets are likely cheaper on these days because not only is it the end of summer, but these are weekdays, as well. On average, weekdays tend to be cheaper than weekends in Disney World in terms of ticket prices.

September

Getting into September, you’ll see more days with lower ticket prices. On September 1st, as well as from September 6th-September 8th, tickets are $109.

Hollywood Studios

Tickets are also $109 from September 12th-15th, the 19th-22nd, and the 26th-28th. September 28th is the last day ticket prices are as low as $109 for the reminder of 2022.

Other Cheaper Days

There may not be very many days left in 2022 where tickets are priced at $109, there are some cheaper days left in the year.

  • $126 for a one-day, single-park ticket on August 26th, September 2nd, September 5th, September 9th, and September 29th
  • $129 for a one-day, single-park ticket on May 31st, June 1st-June 7th, June 9th-June 18th, July 6th-July 17th, and July 24th-July 28th 

EPCOT

Every other day for the rest of the year, tickets are priced at $134 or higher with the most expensive days coming at the end of the year around the holidays. The most expensive ticket price this year is $159. We have an entire post on the most expensive days for 2022 as well. So if you are looking to save some money, you can see which days you might want to AVOID here! 

If you’re looking to book a Disney World vacation and trying to save some money, consider purchasing tickets on these cheaper days to help mitigate the cost.

If you’re thinking of planning a trip to Disney World for 2023 and you’re a UK resident, there’s a special deal you’ll want to take advantage of!

We’re ready for the summer!

We saw a UK resident-specific deal announced back in May of 2021, but now a new one has been revealed and it comes with a LOT of perks!

Disney has announced their “the magic is yours” deal for 2023 vacations to the Most Magical Place on Earth for those traveling from the UK. The deal appears on the Disney packages website that is specific to UK residents.

This deal applies for selected arrivals between January 1st and December 17th, 2023 (some blockout dates may apply) at specific Disney World hotels. BUT caution: to get this deal you’ll need to book by July 27th, 2022!

Welcome to Disney World

Just what is included in the deal you ask? Great question! If you book this special package you can get a Disney dining and merchandise credit of up to $1,200 that can be used at over 350 locations.

Guests who book the package can also get a 14-day Magic Ticket for the price of a 7-day ticket, and it includes Memory Maker too!

Plus you can get a FREE Disney gift card with $200 of spending money!

But wait…there’s MORE! The package also includes 2 free tickets to the Cirque du Soleil Drawn to Life show in Disney Springs for those who stay in selected Disney hotels and book before that July 27th date!

The UK website goes through what a 2-week package would look like at different hotels in Disney World. For example, the 2-week package at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort — French Quarter or Riverside would include a $1,000 dining and merchandise credit, while a stay at Disney’s Pop Century Resort comes with a $500 dining and merchandise credit for the 2-week package.

The fine print indicates that certain things in the package are included for a minimum stay of 5 consecutive nights and a maximum of 21 consecutive nights for arrivals from January 1st-March 25th, 2023, and April 17th-December 17th, 2023.

The Joffrey’s Coffee & Tea Company kiosk in World Discovery at EPCOT has been updated and now matches the red and gray color scheme of the neighborhood.

For reference, above is what the kiosk used to look like. It was mostly gray, gold, and blue, with neon “espresso,” “coffee,” and “coolers” signs on the roof.

World Discovery Joffrey's

The kiosk has a brand-new look. The panels around the outside are mostly grey.

One front panel and one roof panel are red.

The rest of the kiosk is white or off-white.

The neon signs are also gone.

Red is the main color of World Discovery and can be seen on trashcans and signs. Green is the main color of World Nature, and blue is the main color of World Celebration.
