Disney Vacation Club has posted its 2027 Moonlight Magic schedule for Members, with eight free events at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, EPCOT, and Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon. The first registration window opens next month. Magic Kingdom doesn’t appear anywhere on the 2027 list, and Typhoon Lagoon picks up three dates on its own.
Disney Vacation Club Moonlight Magic 2027 Dates and Registration Schedule
IN THIS ARTICLE:
- All eight 2027 Moonlight Magic dates, grouped by park.
- Early registration, Resort reservation cutoff and general registration dates for each season.
- Party size limits and the one-event-per-season rule.
Moonlight Magic is the Member-exclusive park event Disney Vacation Club holds several times a year. The 2027 calendar now has eight dates at Walt Disney World. Registration happens in seasonal windows. Members with a qualifying Resort reservation get first crack, and general registration follows for everyone else.
All Eight 2027 Moonlight Magic Dates
Disney Vacation Club splits the 2027 events across four Walt Disney World parks, with the first event in January and the last one in September:
- Disney’s Animal Kingdom: January 12 and May 25
- Disney’s Hollywood Studios: February 2 and March 9
- EPCOT: September 8
- Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon: June 15, July 13 and August 24
Typhoon Lagoon leads the calendar with three summer dates, while EPCOT gets a single night in September. Magic Kingdom is missing, which matches the lineup Disney Vacation Club posted for 2026. The 2027 list also stops at September 8th. Unlike 2026, there are no October, November, or December events on the calendar for now.
Disney Vacation Club says details on other Member-exclusive offerings at Disneyland Resort are coming soon, and no Disneyland Resort dates appear on the 2027 list yet. The page also doesn’t list event hours, entertainment, or food for any of the 2027 dates.
How 2027 Moonlight Magic Registration Works
Registration opens at 11:00am Eastern on each registration date. Early registration is for eligible Members with qualifying Resort reservations, and general registration opens to all eligible Members with limited availability. Each season also has a cutoff for the Resort reservation that qualifies a Member for early registration.
Winter events (Animal Kingdom on January 12, Hollywood Studios on February 2 and March 9):
- Resort reservation and party size cutoff: December 13, 2026, at 11:59pm Eastern
- Early registration: December 15, 2026
- General registration: December 17, 2026
Spring events (Animal Kingdom on May 25, Typhoon Lagoon on June 15):
- Resort reservation cutoff: April 18, 2027
- Early registration: April 22, 2027
- General registration: April 29, 2027
Summer events (EPCOT on September 8, Typhoon Lagoon on July 13 and August 24):
- Resort reservation cutoff: May 30, 2027
- Early registration: June 3, 2027
- General registration: June 10, 2027
EPCOT counts as a Summer event even though its date falls in September, so Members aiming for that night need to use the June registration dates. The events are free, and each Member can register for one event per season. A Member can bring up to four additional Guests, for a party of five, or up to the number of Guests on their Resort reservation.
The one-per-season rule matters most in winter, when Members pick between one Animal Kingdom date and two Hollywood Studios dates in the same window. That winter cutoff also arrives quickly. Members need that reservation and party size set by 11:59pm Eastern on December 13th.
It’s worth checking the Member website before booking a stay around these events.
