    Do I need to purchase a Disney theme park ticket in order to attend the ESPN High School Cheer Nationals on February 7,2025? I’m traveling from NY and I need to know prior to booking. Please advise

    Hi Patria,

    Thank you for stopping by planDisney with your cheerleading question! As a cheer mom myself, I know there’s nothing like watching your cheerleader light up the mat and perform with all their heart. Can you believe you will be flying down from New York to see your superstar take the mat in just a few short weeks? It’s going to be unforgettable!

    Okay, let’s jump, stunt, and tumble right into your question. The ESPN High School Cheer Nationals will be held at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex. While the complex is part of Walt Disney World, it’s located outside of the theme parks. This means you don’t need a theme park ticket to access the venue or watch the competition—your cheer event ticket will give you the access you need to cheer on your athlete and their team!

    If you’re looking for a little extra magic during your downtime, I highly recommend heading to Disney Springs. This incredible spot doesn’t require a ticket for entry and is packed with shopping, dining, and entertainment. It’s the perfect way to celebrate and unwind after a day full of cheers.

    Sending a sprinkle of pixie dust for your cheerleading team to hit zero! If you have any other questions, feel free to come back. 

    See you real soon,

    Christina
