One of the best perks of working for the Mouse isn’t the free park access, benefits, or expertise and experience gained from working at the Walt Disney Company, but actually is the discounts!
Yeah it may sound selfish, but let’s be honest, some of the best things about working for a great company are the perks.

Below, you’ll find the complete listing of all the Disney Cast Member discounts you can take advantage of both on and off-property, as well as some that you can receive at other locations across the U.S.

Are there any current restaurant discounts for employees? I noticed that the link on here said that the discounts were valid only until October. Also, do all of these discounts apply to ESPN employees. Lastly, what discounts have a blackout dates around Christmas?
Thank you so much for your help!
Katie
Are these discounts just for Cast Members in America, or can Cast Members from Paris and Tokyo etc use their ID to get discounts in WDW too?

I see a tonnnn of spam comments lol.
So I use to be a CM but now I’m currently a 3rd party discount info(green ID)? I know of a few already because I work at Disney springs but maybe you would know more? Would be great to explore! I love you blog in general so much information!
Dani

lauren
cast members do not get up to 50% on disney weddings. this is incorrect information.
Tracy Smith
You forgot to mention that Cast Members get 40% off during the holidays. Also, can you not delete all of the garbage comments left by brainless morons?
Waziristani HaXor
Hey Disney cast Thanks 🙂
Erron
The information about the discount on CiCis needs to be updated because the discount is now $4.99 instead of $2.99
Jose Roman
I Just found on today that CiCi’s Pizza are no longer accepting both Resident and Disney Cast Members. The change want in effect yesterday and not sure if other places are doing this, but I get the feel that being close too certain other upcoming changes I believe that CiCi’s Pizza may not be only one.
John
Free lockers are no longer offered to CMs. At some point Disney rented out their locker space to another company so they’re no longer owned by Disney and not eligible for a discount.
Tiana Holzinger
So if I work at Disneyland in Anaheim, Ca do I still get all of these discounts if I take a vacation to Orlando?
Anna Morales
As long as you have your Cast Member ID you will 🙂
Jeanie
Are there any discounts for senior citizens?
Tracy Thompson
This is Disney we are talking about…they couldn’t care less about senior citizens just as long as they bring their wallets with them!
Darren Rivera
I’m a retired cast member. Can I get in at Blizzard beach at a discount or am I still free?
Linda
Free admission to water parks is no longer permitted. Only discounted tickets are available.
Mayra Cordero
Yes, you enter for free until Dec 31, 2022 and your complimentary tickets pay half price, don’t have to make reservation, just arrive early because if it fills up they won’t let you in. Check block out days…

Thus that’s why this post is great. Thanks!
