Disney Vacation Club Reveals 2027 Membership Magic Beyond Pricing and NEW Ticket Discounts!

Disney Vacation Club has revealed the details for its 2027 Membership Magic Beyond program, bringing back its popular paid benefits package for another year with some new ticket discounts and a familiar price tag.

For 2027, Disney Vacation Club Members can once again purchase Membership Magic Beyond for $99 annually, unlocking additional perks that include discounted theme park tickets, bonus One Time Use Points, Memory Maker, priority lounge access, and more.

The biggest changes this year involve theme park tickets at both Walt Disney World and Disneyland, with $150 off select Walt Disney World tickets and a new $350 Disneyland Park Hopper ticket offer.

Let’s take a look at everything included in the 2027 Membership Magic Beyond package, what’s changing from 2026, and whether it’s worth another $99!

2027 Membership Magic Beyond Pricing and Enrollment Dates

First, the good news. Disney Vacation Club is keeping the price of Membership Magic Beyond at $99 for 2027.

Considering that this will be the third year of the program, it’s encouraging to see Disney maintain the original price rather than introduce an increase.

Here’s what Members need to know:

• Annual Price: $99
• Enrollment Opens: January 1, 2027
• Benefit Season: January 1 through December 31, 2027
• Eligibility: Qualifying Disney Vacation Club Members eligible for Membership Extras
• 2026 Membership Magic Beyond: Still available for $99 through December 31, 2026, with benefits expiring at the end of the year

One notable difference is that enrollment for the 2027 program won’t begin until January 1, 2027. For comparison, the 2026 program became available for purchase on December 9, 2025, giving Members an opportunity to enroll ahead of the new year. This time, you’ll need to wait until the new Benefit Season begins.

As a reminder, Membership Magic Beyond is an optional paid enhancement to Disney Vacation Club’s existing Membership Extras. It does not replace traditional Member benefits.

To qualify, Members generally must own at least 150 Vacation Points purchased directly from Disney, although certain existing Members may qualify under earlier eligibility rules.

Members who own only resale contracts purchased after the applicable restrictions took effect generally cannot enroll in Membership Magic Beyond.

NEW for 2027: Save $150 on Walt Disney World Theme Park Tickets

One of the most interesting changes to Membership Magic Beyond for 2027 involves the specially priced Walt Disney World theme park tickets.

Beginning January 7, 2027, enrolled Members will be eligible to save $150 per ticket on specially priced five-day weekday Walt Disney World theme park tickets that include the Water Park and Sports Option.

These tickets are available for start dates from January 11 through December 16, 2027.

The discounted tickets include:

• Five days of Walt Disney World theme park admission, valid Monday through Friday only
• The Water Park and Sports Option, providing five additional admissions or visits to eligible water park and sports experiences
• A $150 discount per ticket compared to the applicable standard ticket

The water park and sports visits can be used on any day of the week, even though the theme park admissions themselves are restricted to weekdays.

How does this compare to 2026?

The 2026 Membership Magic Beyond program offered a similar ticket package, but with advertised savings of up to $140 per ticket.

For 2027, Disney is advertising a flat $150 savings per ticket. That’s a relatively small improvement for an individual Member, but the savings can add up quickly for a larger traveling party.

Disney allows the enrolled Member to purchase these specially priced tickets for themselves and up to seven guests. For a family of four, that’s potentially $600 in ticket savings before considering any other Membership Magic Beyond perks.

These tickets are only valid for theme park admission Monday through Friday, meaning they won’t necessarily work for every Disney vacation. Members who prefer weekend park visits or need more flexibility should carefully compare the discounted offering against standard tickets before purchasing.

Still, for DVC Members planning a weekday Disney World vacation, this could easily be the benefit that pays for the entire $99 program.

NEW Disneyland Ticket Offer: Three Day Park Hopper for $350

Disneyland fans are also getting a new ticket offer through the 2027 Membership Magic Beyond program, and this might be one of my new favorite benefits!

Beginning January 7, enrolled Members can purchase a three-day weekday Disneyland Resort Park Hopper ticket for $350 total, advertised as approximately $117 per day.

Unlike the 2026 ticket benefit, which offered discounted three-day weekday tickets that included Lightning Lane Multi Pass, the 2027 offer specifically highlights Park Hopper access.

Disney’s published 2027 benefit description does not state that Lightning Lane Multi Pass is included, so Members should not assume that feature carries over from the previous year’s offer.

The 2026 offer advertised savings of up to $177 per ticket on select dates, while the new 2027 benefit focuses on a specific $350 ticket price.

Whether that represents a better deal will depend on when you visit, the standard ticket pricing for your dates, and whether you would otherwise purchase Park Hopper or Lightning Lane access.

Like the Walt Disney World ticket offer, Disneyland tickets are available for the enrolled Member and up to seven guests in their traveling party.

For Members planning a Disneyland vacation in 2027, particularly those who enjoy visiting both Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure in the same day, this is certainly an offer worth comparing against regular admission prices.

What Other Membership Magic Beyond Benefits Return in 2027?

Beyond the ticket changes, the remainder of the 2027 Membership Magic Beyond package looks very familiar. Several of these benefits have been among the program’s most valuable offerings since it launched in 2025.

30 Day Memory Maker Entitlement

Membership Magic Beyond once again includes a 30-day Memory Maker entitlement at Walt Disney World.

Disney lists this benefit as having a value of up to $210 if purchased separately.

The entitlement is added to the enrolled Member’s My Disney Experience account and may take 24 hours or more to appear after enrollment or the beginning of the Benefit Season, whichever is later.

The 30-day activation period begins when the Member first downloads a qualifying Disney PhotoPass photo or otherwise redeems the entitlement.

For Members who regularly purchase Memory Maker, this benefit alone can justify the program’s annual fee. However, if you already receive PhotoPass downloads through an Annual Pass or another eligible entitlement, the incremental value may be considerably lower.

Bonus One Time Use Points

This continues to be one of my favorite Membership Magic Beyond benefits.

Enrolled Members receive one bonus One Time Use Point for every One Time Use Point purchased, up to 12 purchased points during the Benefit Season. That means you can purchase 12 points and receive an additional 12 bonus points, giving you a total of 24 One Time Use Points.

For Members who occasionally find themselves just a few points short of a reservation, that can be an incredibly useful perk. It’s also one of the benefits that can provide measurable financial value.

If you were already planning to purchase 12 One Time Use Points, receiving another 12 at no additional point purchase cost represents a substantial bonus.

There are restrictions, including an exclusion for bookings offered through the hotel exchange program.

Members must contact Member Services to take advantage of this benefit.

Priority Access to Disney Vacation Club Member Lounges

Membership Magic Beyond will continue offering priority access to three Disney Vacation Club Member Lounges:

• Disney Vacation Club ImaginAtrium at EPCOT
• Disney Vacation Club Star View Station at Disneyland
• Disney Vacation Club McKim’s Mile House at Magic Kingdom

The priority access benefit applies when lounge entry is operating with a waitlist.

Enrolled Members may bring up to four guests or the number of guests listed on their resort reservation, whichever is greater.

Capacity restrictions still apply, so this isn’t a guarantee that you’ll be able to walk straight into a lounge whenever you arrive.

However, given the popularity of Disney Vacation Club Member Lounges, particularly during busier park days, having priority access can certainly be a nice convenience.

Extended ImaginAtrium Hours and Special Disney Characters

Another returning perk is extended access to the Disney Vacation Club ImaginAtrium at EPCOT.

Membership Magic Beyond participants can visit during the special evening access period from 5:30 PM to 8:30 PM daily, subject to change.

This experience also includes opportunities to meet and mingle with special Disney Characters.

For Members who enjoy unique character interactions, this is one of the more distinctive benefits of the program.

It’s not necessarily something that provides a direct dollar value, but it can add something special to a Disney vacation.

The same guest allowance applies, with the enrolled Member permitted to bring up to four guests or the number on their resort reservation, whichever is greater.

Disney Sorcerer Pass Available for Vacation Points

Membership Magic Beyond will again allow eligible Members to use Vacation Points to purchase or renew the Walt Disney World Disney Sorcerer Pass.

The point requirements remain:

• 75 Vacation Points for a new Disney Sorcerer Pass
• 65 Vacation Points for a renewal

This benefit offers flexibility for Members who would rather use Vacation Points than pay cash for an Annual Pass.

However, that doesn’t automatically make it the best financial decision.

Depending on the value you place on your DVC points, using 75 points toward an Annual Pass could represent a significant opportunity cost compared to renting those points or using them for accommodations.

It’s worth doing the math before deciding whether to use points or cash.

Complimentary Aulani Photo Print

The Aulani photo print benefit introduced for 2026 will also return in 2027.

Enrolled Members can receive an 8×10 photo print during a stay at AULANI, Disney Vacation Club Villas, Ko Olina, Hawai‘i.

Members can visit Hoku Hideaway after enrolling for information on redeeming the benefit.

This probably isn’t the perk that’s going to convince someone to spend $99, but it’s a fun extra for Members visiting Aulani.

Waived $95 Transaction Fee

Members enrolled in Membership Magic Beyond can once again have the $95 transaction fee waived when booking eligible Disney Collection Resorts and experiences.

This includes qualifying reservations involving:

• Disney Collection Resorts
• Disney Cruise Line
• Adventures by Disney
• National Geographic Expeditions

For Members who regularly use their Vacation Points outside traditional Disney Vacation Club accommodations, this can provide meaningful savings.

One eligible transaction could nearly offset the $99 Membership Magic Beyond enrollment fee.

2027 vs. 2026 Membership Magic Beyond: What’s Actually Different?

While Disney is promoting its 2027 ticket offers as new benefits, much of the program remains unchanged.

Here’s a closer look at how the two years compare.

Benefit	2026	2027
Annual Membership Fee	$99	$99
Enrollment Opens	December 9, 2025	January 1, 2027
Walt Disney World Tickets	Five day weekday tickets with five water park or sports visits, savings up to $140	Five day weekday tickets with Water Park and Sports Option, save $150
Disneyland Tickets	Three day weekday tickets with Lightning Lane Multi Pass, savings up to $177	Three day weekday Park Hopper tickets for $350
Memory Maker	30 day entitlement	Returning
Bonus One Time Use Points	Up to 12 bonus points	Returning
Priority Lounge Access	Three DVC Member Lounges	Returning
Special Character Experience	ImaginAtrium evening access	Returning
Disney Sorcerer Pass	75 points new, 65 renewal	Unchanged
Aulani Photo Print	8×10 print	Returning
Transaction Fee Waiver	$95 waiver	Returning

The biggest takeaway is that Disney hasn’t dramatically reinvented Membership Magic Beyond for 2027.

Instead, the company appears to be refining the ticket offerings while maintaining the benefits that have helped make the program appealing to eligible Members.

And considering the annual price remains $99, I don’t necessarily see that as a bad thing.

Is Membership Magic Beyond Worth $99 in 2027?

This is ultimately the question that matters most.And much like the previous two years, the answer depends heavily on how you vacation.

For some Members, Membership Magic Beyond will practically pay for itself before they ever enter a theme park. For others, it might be a collection of benefits they rarely use.

When Membership Magic Beyond Makes Sense

You’re planning to purchase the discounted Walt Disney World tickets.

With $150 in savings per ticket, even purchasing one qualifying ticket could more than cover the annual enrollment fee.

You regularly purchase One Time Use Points.

The ability to receive up to 12 bonus points can provide significant value, particularly when you’re trying to complete a reservation without borrowing points from another Use Year.

You want Memory Maker for an upcoming trip.

With a listed value of up to $210, Memory Maker continues to be one of the easiest benefits to evaluate.

You enjoy visiting DVC Member Lounges.

Priority access and special evening character experiences may not have a direct cash value, but they can make your Disney vacations more enjoyable.

You’re planning a qualifying Disney Collection reservation.

The waived $95 transaction fee can nearly cover the annual Membership Magic Beyond cost on its own.

When You Might Want to Skip It

There are also plenty of situations where the program might not be worth purchasing.

If you’re already an Annual Passholder with PhotoPass benefits, don’t need One Time Use Points, and rarely visit the Member Lounges, you may struggle to find $99 in additional value.

Similarly, Members who primarily travel on weekends might find the specially priced ticket offers too restrictive.

And because the Membership Magic Beyond fee is nonrefundable, it’s worth having a realistic plan for using the benefits before enrolling.

Remember, these benefits are also subject to availability, eligibility requirements, capacity restrictions, and possible changes or termination.

My Thoughts on the 2027 Membership Magic Beyond Program

Now that we’re heading into the third year of Membership Magic Beyond, I think we’re beginning to get a pretty good idea of what Disney envisions for this program. And overall, I like what I’m seeing.

When Membership Magic Beyond was first introduced, I think many DVC Members understandably questioned the idea of paying additional money for benefits on top of an already expensive Disney Vacation Club membership.

After all, Disney Vacation Club has traditionally promoted Membership Extras as one of the additional advantages of purchasing directly from Disney. Asking those same Members to pay another $99 annually for an enhanced package can understandably rub some people the wrong way.

However, I’ve always felt that the important question is whether the program actually provides enough value to justify its cost. And for my family, it has.

The combination of Memory Maker, bonus One Time Use Points, and additional Member Lounge experiences has made this a relatively easy purchase. The 2027 ticket changes are interesting because Disney appears to be placing more emphasis on clearly defined ticket pricing and savings.

I particularly like seeing the $150 Walt Disney World ticket discount. It’s easy to understand, and Members can quickly determine whether it makes financial sense for their upcoming vacation.

The Disneyland offer is a little more complicated. At $350 for three days with Park Hopper access, it could be an attractive option, but I’d want to compare that against regular ticket prices for my travel dates. I would also like more clarity on Lightning Lane Multi Pass, considering it was part of the 2026 offer but isn’t specifically mentioned in the new 2027 description.

Beyond that, I’m happy Disney has maintained the $99 price.

Could they add more benefits? Absolutely. I’d love to see Membership Magic Beyond continue expanding with unique Member experiences, additional discounts, or other meaningful opportunities that go beyond what regular theme park guests can purchase.

But for now, I’m glad to see the program continuing into 2027 without a price increase.

I’ll be renewing Membership Magic Beyond for 2027, and I suspect many Members who have found value in the program over the past two years will be doing the same.

How to Purchase 2027 Membership Magic Beyond

Eligible Disney Vacation Club Members can begin purchasing the 2027 Membership Magic Beyond package on January 1, 2027.

The annual enrollment fee is $99, and benefits remain valid through December 31, 2027.

The new Walt Disney World and Disneyland ticket offers become available beginning January 7, 2027.

Members interested in purchasing specially priced theme park tickets or redeeming certain other benefits can contact Disney Vacation Club Member Services at (800) 800 9800 after enrolling.

Will You Purchase Membership Magic Beyond in 2027?

Disney Vacation Club has now committed to a third year of Membership Magic Beyond, and the 2027 package brings some interesting ticket changes while maintaining the familiar $99 price.

For Members who regularly take advantage of Memory Maker, bonus One Time Use Points, or discounted theme park tickets, there’s still plenty of potential value here.

But I also think it’s fair to question whether Disney should continue expanding these paid benefits, especially for Members who have already made substantial investments in direct DVC ownership.

What do you think of the 2027 Membership Magic Beyond benefits?

Will you be renewing for another year? Are the new Walt Disney World and Disneyland ticket offers enough to convince you to enroll? Or would you rather see Disney introduce something completely different?
