I get it! You’re ready to plan and book your Disneyland vacation. And you want to know what Military discounts are available. All the details for the current Disney Military Veteran Discounts are below.

Theme Park Ticket Discounts

Whether you are going to Walt Disney World in Florida or Disneyland in California, any Veteran can purchase *select discounted theme park tickets.

Important Note: In order to enter any Disney theme park, regardless of whether you’re going to Disneyland or Walt Disney World, you will need to make theme park reservations. Because of this, you will want to purchase your Veteran Discounted Disney tickets as early as possible. For more information on Walt Disney World Theme Park Reservations, click HERE.

Where can I purchase Disney Military Veteran Discounted Tickets?

If you’re wanting to buy Disneyland tickets the ONLY option you have to purchase Veteran Discounted Disney tickets is on base/post, either at ITT or MWR. If you are looking for Walt Disney World discounted tickets you can buy them at one of two places; either at ITT/MWR or at the Shades of Green Resort.
*More information below regarding the Shades of Green Resort

Please Know: If you are trying to call to inquire about these discounted tickets, you need to reach out to an ITT or MWR office directly. Be sure you are clear that you are NOT trying to purchase the Military Salute tickets (which are only for Active Duty or Retired Service Members).

If you are Active Duty, Retired, National Guard, Reservists, 100% DAV, or a US Coast Guard Service Member, click on the links below

If you are planning on purchasing Disney Military Discounted tickets, from now until the end 2026 it’s a good idea to know what types of tickets are available and where you can purchase those tickets. Also please make sure that when you are attempting to purchase your discounted tickets you know the expiration dates and blackout dates. Every ticketing office is different so dates and prices will vary.

Non-Promotional Disney Military Discounted Tickets

Non-Promotional tickets are available for ALL Service Members. Honorably Discharged Veterans are eligible to purchase these discounted tickets. Non-Promotional tickets are also available to any Service Member that is eligible to purchase the Military Salute tickets. Discounted tickets are available for both Walt Disney World and Disneyland. There is no limit on how many Non-Promotional tickets a Service Member can purchase, and these tickets can also be “gifted” from a Service Member to friends or family.

Non-Promotional Walt Disney World Ticket Pricing

For Non-Promotional Tickets, pricing will vary by date. Just like purchasing tickets directly from Disney, these tickets will be date-based and therefore, no set price chat.

Guests can anticipate that 3-10 day tickets will have at least a 20% discount off the gate price while 1-2 day tickets will see an average discount of 11-12%.

These Non-Promotional tickets MUST BE USED within a certain number of days. Each number of park days has a specific number of days they will be valid for:

  • 2 Day Ticket: 4 day validity
  • 3 Day Ticket: 5 day validity
  • 4 Day Ticket: 7 day validity
  • 5 Day Ticket: 8 day validity
  • 6 Day Ticket: 9 day validity
  • 7 Day Ticket: 10 day validity
  • 8 Day Ticket: 12 day validity
  • 9 Day Ticket: 13 day validity
  • 10 Day Ticket: 14 day validity

MAKE SURE YOU UNDERSTAND HOW MANY DAYS YOUR TICKETS ARE VALID FOR WHEN PLANNING OUT YOUR PARK & BREAK DAYS.

How can I buy these tickets if I don’t have access on base?

Non-Promotional tickets can be purchased at a local military installation ITT or MWR office. Proof of military service is required to purchase the discounted tickets, with either a DD214, VHIC (Veteran Health Identification Card), or HEC form H623A, coupled with a driver’s license/ REAL-ID or passport. Each ticketing office has their own process. You can call or email an ITT or MWR ticket office and inquire as to how you can purchase Non-Promotional tickets.

Purchasing your tickets from Shades of Green

If this is your first time hearing about Shades of Green it is a resort ON Walt Disney World property JUST for Military Service Members and their families. Honorably Discharged Veterans and their families can stay at Shades of Green during the months of January and September.

And! As of January 2020, the Disabled Veterans Equal Access Act 2018 extends the use of Shades of Green Resort YEAR ROUND for Veterans with a VA-documented service-related injury, Purple Heart Recipients, and former prisoners of war (POW). For a full explanation of eligibility for Shades of Green Resort, please click HERE.

The Shades of Green Resort is a fantastic value for Veterans and their family members. Staying here allows you stay ON Disney Property and receive all the same benefits as a Disney Resort hotel Guest, at a much cheaper price. Be sure when looking at room rates you know that Veterans with a DD214 or under the equal access act fall under CATIII.
