Hi Amanda! Welcome back to planDisney, and thank you for reaching out to me with your question!
With your trip to the Walt Disney World Resort less than a year away now, I’m sure you are eager to get a reservation locked in! The good news is that you shouldn’t have to wait too much longer. While we don’t have an exact date for when 2027 vacation bookings will be announced, we can make an educated guess based upon previous years. Last year,
that announcement came in late April and bookings opened the following day. The year before, the announcement came at the end of February. With that in mind, I would anticipate another spring announcement, and my best estimate would be that we may see something in March or April this year. You’ll want to keep an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog since that is where these announcements are typically shared first. When the announcement is released, there should also be details about special offers available for 2027, which is always exciting!
While we also don’t yet know the dates of festivals and events in 2027, if similar date trends continue, your January visit should be right when the
EPCOT International Festival of the Arts is happening! This is such a wonderful time of the year to visit. The festival is full of vibrant art, colorful cuisine, and exciting entertainment, including the
DISNEY ON BROADWAY Concert Series. As a longtime Broadway fan, this is my favorite part of the festival!
Amanda, I hope this helps as you get ready to start planning your visit to the Most Magical Place on Earth in 2027! You are going to have so much fun picking out all of the details that will make your trip magical. I love planning a trip almost as much as I love taking the trip! As you start thinking about those details, don’t hesitate to
reach out to me with more questions. I would be delighted to help you plan a trip that is “practically perfect in every way!”
With faith, trust, & pixie dust,
Casey
