Hiya Sarah - welcome to planDisney!
Thanks so much for sending us your question! Our team of panelists loves to help Guests just like you plan magical Walt Disney World Resort holidays.
I've never celebrated the New Year at Walt Disney World, but I'm sure it is a magical experience. Plus, this year the
Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary Celebration will also be in full swing so it's a double dose of pixie dust for your crew on this trip!
Let's start with a splash and talk about
Walt Disney World Water Parks! Disney's Typhoon Lagoon is currently welcoming Guests to cool off and catch a wave, while Disney's Blizzard Beach is temporarily unavailable. There haven't been any announcements regarding when Blizzard Beach will reopen, but it's entirely possible that it could happen before your trip. The good news is that in my experience there is always at least one water park open to enjoy!
I do have some good news to share about
Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique! Disney has confirmed that the Boutiques will reopen
"later this year" so while that could mean as late as December 31st, I hope that it's earlier. Keep an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog to stay up to date with important news, including how to make reservations for Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique once it becomes available.
I hope this information is helpful -
please let me know if you have any further questions as you continue planning this exciting holiday!
