    We’re doing magic kingdom and next day Hollywood studios next week. Do we have to make reservations for the parks? Also staying on site if that matters.

    Royal greetings, Samantha!

    A warm welcome to planDisney. We're delighted you've visited us with a fantastic Walt Disney World Resort vacation planning question! It sounds like you'll be enjoying an enchanting escape to The Most Magical Place on Earth very soon. I bet you're counting down the minutes 'til your pixie-dusted getaway!

    Most date-based theme park tickets no longer require theme park reservations to be made, Samantha. So, if you selected a date and theme park when you purchased your tickets, you can rest assured that you shouldn't need to make any additional theme park reservations for your admission. The promotional special offers currently offered on theme park tickets (4-Day, 4-Park Magic Ticket or 3-Day, 3-Park Ticket) also do not require theme park reservations. Some admission types, including Annual Passes, Disney Military Salute Tickets, and group tickets, do still require theme park reservations. These can be made by visiting the Walt Disney World Resort website and selecting "Make Theme Park Reservations" or by opening the My Disney Experience mobile app and tapping "Make or Modify Park Reservation." If you're still feeling unsure about whether your admission type requires reservations, you can always phone the friendly Cast Members at the Existing Tickets line for further assistance.

    Samantha, I hope this information helps you to prepare for a practically perfect stay at the Walt Disney World Resort. If you dream up any additional questions throughout your visit, you're always welcome to return to planDisney anytime! We're here to help you make the most of your time at The Most Magical Place on Earth.

    Warm wishes,

    Lauren
