What time does Typhoon Lagoon close in the summer?

When are they open? The hours at Typhoon Lagoon vary by season. In the colder/winter months, the park is open from 10 AM to 5 PM. During the summer, the park is open from 10 AM to 8 PM.



During the peak summer season in 2026 (typically June through August), Disney's Typhoon Lagoon usually closes at 6:00 PM or 7:00 PM. However, on select nights, the park hosts special ticketed events like H2O Glow After Hours, which allows guests to stay in the park well into the night (often until 11:00 PM or midnight) with neon lights, music, and shorter wait times for slides. Standard operating hours can vary based on weather conditions and specific dates, so it is always wise to check the My Disney Experience app on the morning of your visit. It's worth noting that in 2026, Disney has aimed to keep both Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach open simultaneously during the hottest months to accommodate the high demand from summer travelers and resort guests.
