Now through January 6th, buy two park days, get three FREE at Universal Orlando Resort. Better yet, there are NO blockout dates! Purchase a 2-Day, 2-Park ticket  and receive THREE EXTRA DAYS FREE. The parks included are Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure. Travel must be completed by August 31, 2021 to take advantage of this offer!

Volcano Bay Closure
Universal’s Volcano Bay will begin a seasonal closure on November 2, with a current planned reopening time frame of on or before March 1, 2021. The closure will be used to conduct annual maintenance on several attractions and areas of the park.  

Walt Disney World
Frozen Ever After Refurbishment
Frozen Ever After will undergo refurbishment November 2-6, 2020. Anna and Elsa will still appear in a cavalcade around the park!

Breakfast Returning to Chef Mickey's
Mickey Mouse and friends are returning to breakfast at Chef Mickey’s in Disney’s Contemporary Resort on December 16! Breakfast will feature some new yummy dishes, as well as your traditional favorites! (Like those iconic Mickey Waffles!) Instead of a buffet, Chef Mickey's now operates as an all-you-care-to-eat family style feast! The experience will look different than the last time you visited, but you can still wave at some of your favorite characters as they parade through the restaurant! Reservations will open on October 17.

Winter Summerland Mini-Golf Opening!
Winter Summerland Miniature Golf course will open for a limited time Nov. 6-Jan. 30! During that time, Fantasia Gardens and Fairways Miniature Golf will temporarily close from Nov. 6.-January 31. While walk-ups are welcome, guests are encouraged to book a tee time for their visit to the Winter Summerland Miniature Golf course.

Disneyland

Halloween Merchandise Coming Soon to Stage 17 in Downtown Disney District
Downtown Disney at Disneyland is full of Halloween and fall fun! A brand new spot in Downtown Disney is the Disneyland Resort Backlot Premiere Shop! This will feature Halloween items, including the ever-popular mini backpacks by Loungefly, as well as ears, plush, mugs, and trading pins. They'll even have apparel and accessories from “The Nightmare Before Christmas", “Coco”, and the Haunted Mansion!

To promote physical distancing, some Downtown Disney District shops may use a mobile wait list at times. Guests will receive a text message for a two-hour window in which they may return to shop.
