Hi, Amber! Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel and thanks so much for stopping by with your question. You are correct. The
Water Park Tickets that can be purchased online are to be used at either Disney's Typhoon Lagoon or Blizzard Beach Water Parks. Actually, you can use that 1-Day Water Park Ticket at both if you like! As long as both of the water parks are open, you are free to hop between them. You could spend a splashtastic morning with your family on
Miss Adventure Falls and work your way up to a thrilling afternoon on
Summit Plummet.
You are welcome to purchase your Water Park Tickets online at any point before your visit. A couple of summers ago, my younger daughter and I had planned to just hang out at our Disney Resort Hotel one day. We decided shortly after waking up that morning that we instead wanted to catch some waves in the
Typhoon Lagoon Surf Pool. I hopped online, purchased our tickets, and was floating along
Castaway Creek just an hour later. How conveniently magical is that?
If you have a MagicBand, you can
link your Water Park Tickets to your My Disney Experience account and just tap the MagicBand to enter the park. However, you will need to make a stop at one of the ticket booths just outside the park if you do not have a MagicBand linked to your account. Also note that if you are an
Annual Passholder and would like to take advantage of their 1-Day Water Park Ticket special, then you will need to wait and purchase your Water Park Tickets at the ticket booth as that discount cannot be applied online at this time.
Thanks again for stopping by with your question and please let us know if you have any others!
