Employee Self-Admission and Main Entrance Pass access to Disney’s Animal Kingdom will be blocked from December 20, 2026, through January 2, 2027.
The holiday blockout is split into two back-to-back ranges: December 20–26 and December 27–January 2. Together, they cover 14 consecutive days.
The restriction applies to the two named employee and complimentary-admission benefits at Animal Kingdom. It does not close the park or block guests using regular paid admission.
Eligible employees and pass users should check the official blockout calendar again before making plans because availability can change.
