Walt Disney World Annual Passholders have something to look forward to this summer: V.I.PASSHOLDER Summer Days is returning from May 1 through July 31, 2026, bringing three months of limited-time perks, exclusive merchandise, and experiences designed specifically for Passholders across the resort.
What is V.I.PASSHOLDER Summer Days?
V.I.PASSHOLDER Summer Days is Disney World’s annual summer celebration for Annual Passholders, offering a range of exclusive offerings that regular park guests do not have access to. The event is Disney’s biggest Passholder celebration of the year, running throughout the heart of the summer season.
For 2026, confirmed offerings include new Passholder-exclusive merchandise, limited-time food and beverage items, special discounts, and a new collectible Passholder magnet. Disney has also promised additional perks and surprises to be announced as the event approaches. Last year’s V.I.PASSHOLDER Summer Days ran May 14 through July 31, 2025, and included a dedicated Passholder Lounge inside Epcot’s Morocco Pavilion, a location that had previously rotated between parks in prior years.
What to Know Before May 1
This year’s event starts two weeks earlier than the 2025 edition, giving Passholders more time to take advantage of the summer perks. The collectible magnet is a perennial highlight of the event; each year’s design is unique, making them a sought-after item for longtime Passholders who have been collecting them across multiple summers. The Magnet this year could be a Toy Story Disney World AP one. If you watch the new social media post by WDW Annual Passholders, it gives some clues. Video below.
Details on the full lineup of food and beverage offerings, merchandise items, and any lounge locations have not yet been announced. Disney typically releases that information closer to the start date, so check back at Fantasy Land News for full coverage as specifics are confirmed.
