Blizzard Beach Reopening Nov. 13
If guests are looking for something “cool’’ to do this holiday season at Walt Disney World Resort, then they should consider a visit to Disney’s Blizzard Beach Water Park because the popular polar paradise reopens next month for the holiday season. And for the first time in forever, the water park will include touches from the popular Disney film Frozen.
When the wintry water park swings open its gates on Nov. 13 there will be plenty of arctic adventures, including wintry water attractions for guests of all ages, frosty eats and treats and an atmosphere of glacial glee. As we like to say around here, there’s almost ‘snow’ better place to spend the day at Walt Disney World than at a water park!
Here are some of the best ways to chill out and enjoy Blizzard Beach’s return...
Frolic with Frozen friends at Tike’s Peak

A flurry of Frozen fun has come to Blizzard Beach and guests' young ones can enjoy them among the kid-sized thrills of Tike’s Peak. Whether they are experiencing the miniature slides and attractions, splashing around in front of Anna and Elsa’s igloo castle or playing with Olaf and his Snowgie pals in the wading pool, this area is full of Frozen-themed fun for everyone!
Ring In the Holiday Season

Feel the holiday cheer with limited-time food and beverage offerings such as Orange Bird DOLE Whip cone and Peppermint Milkshake. Through Dec. 31, guests can immerse themselves in a merry atmosphere that has a daily snowfall, holiday music, festive inner tubes and even a tropical-dressed Santa.
Take the Plunge Down Summit Plummet

Calling all thrill-seekers! Did you know that the fastest attraction at Walt Disney World is right here at Blizzard Beach? Descend Mount Gushmore in a near-vertical drop on the tallest and fastest freefall body slide in town.
