GET READY TO GLOW! H2O After Hours Returns to Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon This Summer!
I’m really happy to report that H2O Glow After Hours at Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon is BACK this summer. I’m a big fan of Disney After Hours events in general, but H2O Glow After Hours is one of my favorites.
H2O Glow After Hours at Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon will be lighting up select summer nights from May 23rd through September 13th, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to share all the glowing details with you! (yes, I’m cheesy. I admit it!). Enjoy all of the water park FUN without the searing SUN. (Told you I was cheesy.)

Tickets On Sale April 4
Listen up, my Disney planning pals! Tickets go on sale April 4! If you’re staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel (and if you’re not, we should talk about that!), you can snag your tickets starting April 1st. General public tickets will be available beginning April 4th. Last year, several nights of H2O Glow After Hours did sell out, so if this fits into your summer plans, I HIGHLY recommend buying your tickets SOON. (Email me and I can take care of this for you.)
And here’s the BEST NEWS for families – kids’ tickets are only $42.50 this year, which is HALF the adult price of $85! Plus, my fellow Annual Passholders and DVC members get even more savings! If you are a Typhoon Lagoon (or water parks in general), this is seriously one of the best values at Disney right now!
Why You’ll LOVE H2O Glow After Hours💙
Let me tell you why this event is a non-negotiable part of our summer Disney trips:
-
-
- Partysaurus Rex from Toy Story will be your host for the evening, along with some of his friends! All the kids I saw went CRAZY for these character interactions last year!
- The wait times are SO much shorter compared to daytime hours. We rode Humunga Kowabunga three times in a row last summer – that NEVER happens during regular hours!
- You’ll avoid that intense Florida summer heat while still enjoying all the splashy fun! AND extra benefit: you’ll avoid all those killer UV rays that are so strong during the day!
- FREE SNACKS! Yes, you read that right – complimentary Mickey bars, popcorn, and select beverages are included with your ticket! I admit it, Disney. You had me at “free Mickey bar”. It works EVERY TIME.

New Delicious Treats!
This year they’re adding even MORE yummy treats! So far, we’ve learned there will be new Chicken and Mickey-shaped Waffle Sliders at Leaning Palms. Also, I’m hearing there’s a Glow-versized Loaded Baked Potato at Typhoon Tilly’s that sounds incredible! I’ll update you all with the full menu as soon as Disney shares it.
Dance the Night Away!
Who DOESN’T love a Disney Dance Party?? The combination of pulsating music, dazzling lights, and Disney characters makes for the most magical atmosphere at the H2O Glow After Hours DJ Dancing Parties. You might even get to dance with Partysaurus Rex!

The GLOWING Bottom Line
If you’re planning a summer Disney trip and your budget allows for it, I HIGHLY recommend adding H2O Glow After Hours to your itinerary. It’s one of the more reasonably priced After Hours events (that’s kind of relative, I realize). It’s also the perfect way to cool off after a hot park day, and the nighttime vibes make it feel like a completely different experience from a regular water park visit!
