    Can I purchase a one day ticket to Epcot at the gate and get a military discount? If yes, how much would it be?

    Hello there, Beverly, and welcome to planDisney!

    Let me first begin with a huge thank you from my military family to yours, “Thank You!”. We appreciate everything your family does on a day-to-day basis, and I’m so ready for you all to unwind and enjoy a day at EPCOT

    I’ve found that the easiest way to purchase military-discounted tickets is by visiting your local military ticketing office before you arrive. If you would rather purchase tickets when you arrive at Walt Disney World Resort, I recommend visiting Shades of Green. There, you can purchase the non-promotional tickets that are discounted for service members and their families. The eligible service member will need to present their military ID to purchase these, and they are available as single-day tickets. Which is exactly what you need!

    If you plan on visiting more than once, before December 19, 2025, then I recommend purchasing the Disney Military Salute Tickets. These tickets can be purchased as 4,5, or 6-day theme park tickets and do not have to be used consecutively. You can also purchase these Disney World theme park tickets at any theme park window. Keep in mind that tax will be added if theme park tickets are purchased at a theme park ticket window. If you purchase the Military Salute Tickets at a participating military ticketing office or Shade of Green Resort, no tax will be added. So, making the trip to Shade of Green might be worth the savings!

    Beverly, I hope this helps answer your question so that you can make the most of your visit to EPCOT. Be sure to squeeze in the time to take off on an intergalactic chase through space on Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind! Listen closely, you never know what song you’ll be grooving to!

    Have a great visit, and thank you again for your service. If there’s anything else we can help with, you know where to find us!

    See ya real soon,
