Typhoon Lagoon Water Park
And we’ve got one more for you! Disney H2O Glow After Hours at Typhoon Lagoon Water Park is a slight revamp of the previous H2O Glow Nights event. H2O Glow After Hours at Typhoon Lagoon will be offered on select nights from May 20 – September 2, 2023.
The event is held from 8PM to 11PM, but an event ticket grants you access to the park beginning at 6PM, so you can enjoy it for a couple of hours before the party gets going, AND ice cream treats, popcorn, and some fountain drinks are now included in the cost of the event!
Tickets for the 2023 H2O Glow Night events cost $75 per adult and $70 per child (ages 3 to 9). Annual Passholders and DVC Members can take advantage of discounts and get tickets for $59 per adult and $54 per child. Tickets are now on sale!
At After Hours events, select attractions are available for ticket holders to experience after the park closes to regular guests. Event guests can also pick up complimentary popcorn, ice cream novelties, and bottled drinks at select snack stands.Â
