Disney's 2027 Military Offers Are Out: The Celebrates America Ticket Returns at $549, and Room Discounts Include Lakeshore Lodge

Disney released its 2027 military offers on Veterans Day, and the Disney Celebrates America Military Salute Ticket, which debuted for 2026, is back for a second year. It allows repeat visits in 2027 and costs $549 plus tax with the Park Hopper Option. An eligible service member or spouse buys it, and Disney's terms let them buy tickets for themselves, family members and friends. It is good from January 1 through December 21, 2027, with a park reservation and outside two blockout periods. In Disney's words on the new ticket offer page: "It's back for another year!"

Blog Mickey, which reported the offers Wednesday morning, says the Celebrates America ticket costs $50 more than it did for 2026, and each of the 4, 5 and 6-Day Disney Military Salute Tickets went up by $20.

The 2027 ticket prices

All prices are Disney's listed prices, plus tax:

• Disney Celebrates America Military Salute Ticket: $549 with Park Hopper, $579 with Park Hopper Plus
• 6-Day Disney Military Salute Ticket: $469 with Park Hopper, $499 with Park Hopper Plus
• 5-Day Disney Military Salute Ticket: $449 with Park Hopper, $479 with Park Hopper Plus
• 4-Day Disney Military Salute Ticket: $429 with Park Hopper, $459 with Park Hopper Plus

Every ticket is valid from January 1 through December 21, 2027, needs an advance park reservation, and is blocked out on two stretches: March 21 through April 3, 2027, and November 21 through November 27, 2027. Celebrates America holders can have as many as five park reservations booked at once, on a rolling basis.

For comparison, Disney's special offers page still listed the 2026 versions on Wednesday morning, valid through December 18, 2026, with blockouts of March 29 to April 11 and November 22 to 28. So the 2027 tickets run three days later into December.

The fine print on the tickets

• It is not an Annual Pass. Disney's terms say the tickets, Celebrates America included, "are not Annual Passes." They cover park entry only, with no parking and no discounts on dining, merchandise or anything else.
• Where to buy: participating military base ticket offices, including Shades of Green, with no tax added, or Walt Disney World theme park ticket windows, where tax is added. Disney notes that base ticket offices may charge less than its listed prices.
• ID and activation: the eligible service member or spouse must show valid military ID to buy and use the tickets, and has to activate them at a Walt Disney World theme park ticket window.
• Limit: six tickets per eligible service member or spouse, and one of the six must be theirs. If they already hold a valid Walt Disney World Annual Pass, they do not have to buy a ticket for themselves, and the limit is five.
• Each ticket stays with one person for every day it is used. Tickets are nontransferable, nonrefundable and cannot be combined with other discounts.
• Memory Maker is $98 through December 21, 2027, sold only at theme park ticket windows, and each service member or spouse can buy no more than two.

Who qualifies: current and retired US military members. Disney counts the National Guard, Reservists, the Coast Guard and the Space Force, as well as the Commissioned Corps of both the Public Health Service and NOAA. Spouses holding valid, active US Military IDs qualify as well.

Up to 30% off rooms, and Lakeshore Lodge is on the list

Disney has also posted a 2027 US Military Discount on Select Rooms with the Disney Resorts Collection. That page would not load for us, so the room details below come from Blog Mickey's report. Each resort tier gets its deepest discount for summer stays, June 1 through August 31, 2027, and a smaller one for other eligible nights:

• Deluxe and Disney Vacation Club resorts: 30% (summer) or 25% (other eligible nights)
• Moderate resorts and Art of Animation Family Suites: 25% (summer) or 20% (other eligible nights)
• Value resorts and the Fort Wilderness Campsites: 20% (summer) or 15% (other eligible nights)

According to Blog Mickey, the discount covers stays of 1 to 14 nights on most dates between January 1 and December 21, 2027, minus the same blockout periods as the tickets, and reservations can be made from now until December 21, 2027.

Blog Mickey reports several changes to the resort list for 2027. Disney's Lakeshore Lodge is eligible for stays from July 1, 2027, the opening date Disney announced in August, and Blog Mickey puts it at 30% off for its first two months, which fall entirely inside the summer window. King Bed Rooms at Disney's Coronado Springs Resort now get the top-tier discount, the same as Deluxe resorts, and the Family Suites at Disney's Art of Animation Resort now sit in the moderate tier, Blog Mickey says.

Blog Mickey lists several room types the discount does not cover: all 3-Bedroom Villas, the Polynesian's Bungalows and larger villas, the Cabins at Copper Creek, and Club Level rooms at Jambo House. Rooms are limited. Disney's special offers page lists (407) 939-7830 to check hotel offer availability and make room reservations. Blog Mickey adds that the service member or spouse must be one of the room's guests and needs valid military ID when checking in.

Is the yearlong ticket worth it?

At $549, the Celebrates America ticket costs $80 more than the 6-Day Disney Military Salute Ticket with the same Park Hopper Option. It starts to pay off once a family needs a seventh park day in 2027, since none of the military multi-day tickets goes beyond six days. A family that needs six park days or fewer will save with a multi-day ticket. Just remember that neither one includes parking, and neither carries Annual Passholder discounts.
