Overview
- Walt Disney World will run Cool Kids’ Summer from May 26 through Sept. 8, 2026 across all four parks as a daytime program included with regular tickets.
- New and refreshed offerings center on kid-favorite IP, including Bluey play at Animal Kingdom’s Conservation Station, Jessie’s Roundup at Magic Kingdom, GoofyCore games at EPCOT, and the Disney Jr. Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Live! stage show at Hollywood Studios, plus a revamped Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin.
- Attractions Magazine reports that the new Bluey experience and the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Live! show are expected to continue after the seasonal window, so families will likely find them beyond summer.
- Guests staying at Disney Resort hotels get complimentary admission to a water park on their check‑in day, creating an easy arrival‑day activity without using a theme park ticket.
- Disney is advertising resort hotel discounts of up to 30% for most guests, with higher savings for Florida residents and Annual Passholders, and it says characters will appear during the 30‑minute Early Theme Park Entry window.
