Winter has officially arrived, which means that many people have headed to the Orlando area to find a little bit of warmth. Christmas is also just a few days away so the crowds have grown. If you’re at Walt Disney World and part of your plans include a day or two at Disney’s Blizzard Beach Water Park, double check before you head out.
Due to cool temperatures, Disney’s Blizzard Beach Water Park will not be open on Wednesday, December 22, or Thursday, December 23. It is expected to reopen on Friday, December 24.

The high temperature on December 22 is forecast to hit 65 degrees. While that may sound like perfect weather, it’s too cold to be in and out of the water all day. The high temperature on December 23 is forecast to be around 70 degrees.
Aquatica Orlando, which is part of SeaWorld Parks and Entertainment, will also be closed on December 22. As we write this, Aquatica is scheduled to reopen on December 23. The hours will be 10:30-5:00.
Universal’s Volcano Bay will remain closed on December 22 as well. The scheduled hours right now for December 23 are 10:00-5:00. Island H2O Live, located at Margaritaville’s Sunset Walk, is closed for the season.
It is always a good idea to check the forecast before heading to a Disney Water Park, no matter what time of year you visit. If the temperature during the cooler months dips, the Park could remain closed.
During the summer months, strong storms will shut down the rides. It is best to be prepared.
At this time, Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon Water Park remains closed. On the days that it is open, the hours at Disney’s Blizzard Beach are 10:00-5:00.
