As a tradition in January, Walt Disney World offers discounted theme park tickets to Florida residents.
The 2026 edition of Florida Resident Discover Disney tickets includes a 4-day package that sells for $255 and a 3-day package that sells for $235. This ticket is valid from January 12th to May 16th at Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom theme parks.
This has multiple rules and restrictions, including the need to reserve the park on your desired date. However, tickets can be used on consecutive or non-consecutive dates, and visitors can choose to visit one WDW park on multiple days during the promotional period. Tickets must be used by the same person on all days.
There is an add-on option that allows you to travel between parks on the same day (an additional $40 per ticket), as well as the option to access a Disney World water park or golf course for $35.
Adults must present proof of Florida residency prior to first use at the theme park ticket window.
