    We check into to our on-site resort on March 8th, 2025. Our first park day is March 9th. We have stay/tickets package. What day can I begin to purchase Lightening Lane passes? Seven days from check in day, or seven days from first park day?

    Hey Debbie, 

    Thanks for bringing your question to planDisney! You’re doing a great job staying on top of your vacation planning timeline. You’ve probably already planned which theme parks you’re visiting, made some dining reservations, or even booked a few Enchanting Extras

    Debbie, as a Disney Resort Guest, you can purchase and make your Lightning Lane selections 7 days before your Resort arrival day for the length of your stay (up to 14 days). You can purchase Lightning Lane Passes in your My Disney Experience app. First, you’ll pick which date and theme park you are visiting. Once you select your theme park, you can choose to purchase Lightning Lane Multi Pass, Single Pass, or both, if available. You'll also indicate which members of your party will be included in the purchase. If you are purchasing Multi Pass, you’ll choose from the list of Lightning Lane experiences available at the theme park. On the next page, you’ll be given return times for the experiences you’ve selected, with an option to modify if other times are available. After you pick your times and complete your purchase, you can plan another day. 

    You can check out the Lightning Lane experiences in each theme park now and begin planning which attractions you’d like to prioritize.  Don’t forget, as a Disney Resort Guest you're eligible for Early Theme Park Entry, which will give you an additional 30 minutes to enjoy in the parks! 

    The full Garden Rocks Concert Series lineup was recently released, and it looks like a few artists are performing during your visit! I hope you get a chance to check out the concerts while you enjoy the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival. I don’t always sit down and watch the concert, but I still love walking by the America Gardens Theater with the live music playing. You’ll find some super fans in that crowd! 

    I hope this helped, Debbie. Making plans for a Disney vacation is exciting, but the real fun begins once you arrive! As you continue counting down to your visit, come back and see me at planDisney if you have more questions!
