Black Friday Orlando tickets 2026: what to expect and when to buy
Planning Orlando for summer 2027? Lots of UK families book 6 to 12 months ahead, so the next few weeks matter. Black Friday, Cyber Monday and the January sales are when UK ticket sellers run their biggest promotions. Here's what they offered in the last two years, what to watch for, and how to tell whether a "deal" really is one.
Quick version
- Black Friday is Friday 27 November 2026; Cyber Monday is 30 November. UK sellers' sales usually start earlier in November and often run through Cyber Monday.
- In 2025, AttractionTickets.com offered 20% off Orlando tickets (code BLACKFRIDAY, visits from 2026), and FloridaTix was reported to offer 20% off. In 2024, FloridaTix ran 16% off sitewide.
- An independent price tracker found Black Friday prices were beaten for 18 to 20 weeks of the following year at the two biggest UK sellers, and the two weeks after Black Friday were the dearest time to buy. Compare the actual £ price, not the % off.
- Low deposits (from £1 to £50 per person) let you lock in a price now and pay the rest later. Check when the balance is due.
- Check the ticket covers your dates, check the refund rules, and pay over £100 by credit card where you can. Compare with our normal prices first.

What UK sellers ran in 2024 and 2025
A guide to what to expect, not a promise of what will happen this year. Where we could only find a report from a blog or newspaper, rather than the seller itself, we've said so.
| Seller | 2024 | 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| AttractionTickets.com (UK, ABTA) | Not confirmed. We couldn't find a dated source for the 2024 offer. (In 2023 it was 10% off Disney tickets plus a free MagicBand, ending 27 Nov Mirror.) | 20% off Orlando attraction tickets for UK and Ireland customers with code BLACKFRIDAY, excluding 2025 visits. Up to 40% off Discovery Cove packages, 12% off Universal hotel-and-ticket packages, and a free child Kennedy Space Center ticket with each adult. Bookings by 1 Dec 2025 Daily Record Yahoo News UK. |
| Floridatix (UK) | 16% off sitewide, launched 5 Nov 2024, with a "last chance" post on 28 Nov and Cyber Monday savings on 2 Dec FloridaTix blog archive. | 20% off Florida theme park tickets with code MBF20, as reported by the Mickey From The UK blog Mickey From The UK. Not confirmed on FloridaTix's own site. |
| Orlando Attraction Tickets (UK) | Not confirmed. | No code. It cut its prices directly and brought back a £1 per person deposit, with the balance due 8 weeks before departure. Disney, Universal and Discovery Cove were in the sale (seller's blog, 11 Nov 2025) Orlando Attraction Tickets. |
| AttractionTix (UK) | Not confirmed. | Not confirmed. Its 2026 page says offers are "coming soon" AttractionTix. |
| SeaWorld Parks UK (official UK site) | 7 Nov to 2 Dec 2024, for 2024 and 2025 visits: Discovery Cove Ultimate Swim from £163 (up to 37% off on selected dates), and the Ultimate 3-Park Ticket for the same price as the 3-Visit + Eat Free ticket (from £164) SeaWorld Parks UK. | UK offer not confirmed. On the US site, Discovery Cove packages were up to 50% off if booked by 28 Nov 2025 (US$ prices) Attractions Magazine. |
| Disney (UK site) | No Disney-branded "Black Friday" ticket sale that we could find. | Disney didn't call it Black Friday, but Mickey From The UK reported "up to 25% off Disney Magic Tickets for select 2026 stays" during the period Mickey From The UK. Not confirmed on Disney's site. Disney's big UK 2026 offer (14-day ticket for the price of 7 and free dining) was for hotel-and-ticket packages booked by 5 Nov 2025 WDWMagic. |
| Universal (UK store) | We found no Universal-branded Black Friday ticket sale. Universal's UK online store is run by Attraction Tickets Ltd Universal UK store, so the UK discounts on Universal tickets come through resellers' sales like the ones above. | |
Offers change every year. Last year's offer is a clue, not a guarantee.
Types of offer you'll see
- Percentage off with a code: 16–20% in recent years (see above). Always check the final £ price for your dates.
- Prices cut with no code: Orlando Attraction Tickets did this in 2025 OAT.
- Low deposits ("buy now, pay later"), which effectively freeze today's price. AttractionTickets.com asks £50 per person, with the balance due 6 weeks before your holiday AttractionTickets.com. FloridaTix's balance is due 90 days before your visit, and some tickets can't be bought on deposit FloridaTix. Orlando Attraction Tickets ran a £1 deposit in 2025. Buying direct from Disney means paying in full up front, according to Mickey From The UK Mickey From The UK.
- Freebies, such as a free MagicBand (2023) or a free child Kennedy Space Center ticket (2025). They're only worth something if you'd use them.
- "14 days for the price of 7" and "adults at kids' prices". These are Disney offers, so every seller gets them. One tracker reckons they usually save only about £20–£30 a person Orlando Planning Guide.
Is Black Friday really the cheapest time?
Not always. Orlando Planning Guide checked UK seller prices every week for a year (for a Disney 14-day ticket starting 11 Aug 2024) Orlando Planning Guide, Jan 2025:
- At AttractionTickets.com and FloridaTix, prices were lower than their Black Friday 2023 sale price for 18 to 20 weeks of the following year.
- The two weeks after Black Friday were the dearest time to buy. FloridaTix's price went from £490.16 in the sale to £557.
- For Universal tickets, FloridaTix never went below its Black Friday price that year. For the all-parks combo, Black Friday was FloridaTix's cheapest week.
- The tracker's view of FloridaTix's 2024 16% sale was that prices had been "ramped up" first, which cancelled out most of the saving. That's their analysis, and we haven't checked it ourselves.
The skint takeaway: note the price for your dates now (or use our dated prices), then compare it with the Black Friday price. If the sale price is lower and the ticket fits your trip, a low deposit can lock it in.

Do prices go up in the new year?
Often, but we haven't found an official announcement of a January 2027 price rise, so treat this as unconfirmed. Here's what we do know:
- Disney and Universal UK tickets are now priced by start date, so the date you travel matters as much as the date you book Orlando Planning Guide. Disney's cheapest 2027 start dates are 1 August to 7 September (from £536 adult) Disney UK, which is handy for UK summer holidays.
- Riding the Magic's check of Disney's site (6 Oct 2026) found 2027 adult 14-day prices of £547.88–£718.08, against £545.36–£692.99 for 2026 Riding the Magic.
- Orlando Planning Guide says ticket prices "increase twice a year typically". That's the tracker's experience, not an official policy.
- Universal's 14-day All Parks Ticket launched in November 2025 at £482 adult / £473 child TTG.
Discovery Cove: book early
Discovery Cove limits how many people it lets in each day, and tickets are for a set date Discovery Cove. Its UK offers have rewarded booking early. In June and July 2024, SeaWorld Parks UK ran an "Early Booking Offer" on 2025 visits, saving up to 42% with Ultimate packages from £169 SeaWorld Parks UK. The Black Friday 2024 offer then covered visits into late 2025. The lowest prices were for quieter dates, such as January to mid-February, September, and late November to mid-December.
For summer 2027, check the price for your exact date at a couple of sellers now, then again during the sales. See our Discovery Cove section for what's included and current prices.
Before you pay: checklist
- Do the travel dates match? Some sales exclude the current year. For example, AttractionTickets.com's 2025 code excluded 2025 visits. Disney's 14-Day Magic Ticket must be used within 18 days of the start date you pick when you book Disney UK. Universal Volcano Bay is closed for refurbishment until spring 2027 FloridaTix TTG.
- Check the change and refund rules. Disney says Magic Tickets are non-refundable and non-transferable Disney UK. Sellers have their own change fees and optional protection.
- Check when the balance is due on a deposit, and put the date in your calendar.
- Pay over £100 on a credit card if you can. Section 75 can cover purchases of £100.01–£30,000 bought on credit, even if only part was paid on the card. MoneySavingExpert says there must be a direct link between you and the seller, and a reseller in the middle can break it MSE. Chargeback (usually within 120 days) is the fallback, including for debit cards.
- Know what ATOL and ABTA cover. ATOL protects holidays that include a flight CAA ATOL, so tickets bought on their own aren't ATOL-protected. Check whether the ticket seller is an ABTA member.
- Buy from official sites or established sellers only. Check the web address carefully, and ignore unexpected "deal" messages on social media ATOL tips.
- Don't rush. Which? Travel's advice for Sunshine Saturday was: "don't feel pressured into booking in a hurry" ATOL.
