This HUGE Disney Vacation Club Perk Is Now Returning

Hey Disney Vacation Club Members, did you think some of those special DVC member benefits were long gone? Well one BIG perk is returning! Read on to find out all about it!

Disney Vacation Club

DVC is short for Disney Vacation Club. It is a timeshare run by Disney. Unlike other timeshares DVC has the flexibility of a point system.

You can book the time of year you travel and type of accommodation, including your resort of choice. With this style of timeshare you are not stuck in a particular week every year. You purchase an allotment of points that you can then choose to spend however you would like.

What Is Moonlight Magic?

Probably the most favorite Membership Extra is returning! Moonlight Magic events are returning in 2022!

Guests can enjoy complimentary after-hours events. These events are for Eligible Members and special Guests. These guests will get exclusive after-hours access where they can expect short-than-usual wait times, character sightings, reimagined entertainment and special treats.

The park is closed to the general public. Only Eligible Members and special guests are able to attend. Guests must register to attend!

Important Registration Information

If you head to the DVC site you will find some important information about registering for the event. Below is what you will find:

Modifications & Cancellations

This event cannot be booked or modified through Member Services. If a Member wishes to change their party size within the party size limits, or the date that they are attending Moonlight Magic, they may modify their event registration through the link found in their confirmation email.

Please note:

• If you cancel your Resort reservation, your event registration will be cancelled automatically.
• Cancelling and rebooking an event registration increases the risk of losing one’s registration.
