With Thanksgiving in the rearview, today is one of the most magical days of the year for Black Friday deals on everything from flights to hotel stays and even AirPods. It’s also the start of the most magical time of year at Disney parks, and if you love saving money as much as you love visiting Disney World or Disneyland, today is your day to shine.
There are dozens of Black Friday deals on shopDisney that can help you stock up on Minnie ears, MagicBands, t-shirts, and other essentials for your next Disney trip and, in the process, pay less than you’d pay for the same items at the parks. Just as Cinderella’s time at the ball was cut short, these Black Friday deals end tonight at midnight. (That said, we expect to see some Cyber Monday sales pop up, too!)

Additional Black Friday Disney deals
There are a few other deals out and about this Black Friday that can help you save money on tickets, hotels and dining for your next Disney vacation.
Hotel discounts
Disney World is currently offering fabulous discounts on hotel stays and vacation packages in early 2024, but if you are planning to visit during the holiday season, you won’t find any deals on Disney’s website. However, if you go through Priceline, you can save up to 25% on hotel stays through Dec. 25, 2023.
Disney gift cards
Savvy Disney visitors know you can stock up on discounted Disney gift cards prior to your trip and use them to pay for everything from hotel stays to theme park tickets to dining and souvenirs. The best deal for discounted Disney gift cards we’ve this week is for a $500 Disney gift card for only $472.99 at BJs Wholesale Club. You will need a membership, so you’ll have to factor that into the cost if you aren’t already a member.
If you are a Target Circle member, you can purchase Disneyland tickets directly through Target’s website and receive a $15 Target gift card when you spend $100 or more on select Disneyland tickets, including this 2-day, 1-park per day ticket. You can save an additional 5% on all purchases – even Disney gift cards – with your Target RedCard.
Bottom line
From renting Disney Vacation Club points to utilizing credit card points and miles, you can find ways to save money on your Disney vacation no matter the time of year. But today is one of the best days to maximize savings on things like merchandise and souvenirs that you wouldn’t otherwise find deep discounts on.
