Social Meetup:
It's time to party! Sunday, April 21st from 5:30 - 7pm near the water tower by Happy Landings - join us before the BRAND NEW Springtime Splash after party at Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon Water Park!
Please note: to attend this event, you'll need to buy a separate ticket through runDisney. Your ticket allows you to enter the waterpark at 5pm, but the official after party starts at 7pm. Our meetup is scheduled from 5:30 to 7pm, so you'll have time to enter the waterpark, grab some food and drinks, and socialize before the main party begins!
