New Disney World Free Dining Offers for 2025

Disney has released another round of its popular Free Dining promotion for 2025! The current release is for Disney Visa Cardmembers only, but that often means a wider release later in the week. Read on to see the details of this offer that’s available for much of the summer, in addition to several weeks in October and December. And note that this Disney Visa Cardmember offer is only available for a few days – until March 26!

We’ll also cover what to expect when booking and how to think about whether this is the offer that will be best for you. If Free Dining doesn’t cover your dates, or you think another offer might save you more, you can check out other current discounts here: See available Disney World Discounts.

Fine Print and Frequently Asked Questions

If you book Free Dining it will apply to your whole trip even if it extends past the promotion window. For a trip with the Free Dining promotion arriving on August 5, 2025 and leaving on August 8, 2025, the free Dining Plan will cover your entire vacation.

Free Dining can not be combined with other discount offers, and note that Disney Dining Plans do not include gratuities. You must use a valid Disney Visa Card or Disney Rewards Redemption Card to pay the deposit, and the Disney Visa Cardmember must stay in the room. This Free Dining offer excludes the following room types: Campsites, 3-Bedroom Grand Villas, Cabins at Copper Creek Villas & Cabins at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge, Bungalows and 2-Bedroom Penthouses at Disney’s Polynesian Villas & Bungalows, Deluxe Rooms at Disney’s Beach Club Resort, and Suites at Disney Deluxe Resort hotels.. Children ages 3-9 must order off a children’s menu where available. Some table-service restaurants may have limited or no availability at time of package purchase.

Although Annual Passholders are normally able to book the Dining Plan without tickets, this offer requires the purchase of a Vacation Package that includes tickets with the Park Hopper Option. Additional per-adult charges may apply if more than 2 adults per room at Disney Value, Moderate, Deluxe and Deluxe Villa Resorts. The number of packages allocated for this offer is limited.

For 2025, the regular price of the Dining Plan is

• Standard Dining Plan: $97.79 per adult, $30.66 per child (ages 3-9)
• Quick Service Dining Plan: $59.14 per adult, $24.71 per child (ages 3-9)

What to Expect When Booking

If you’re trying to book this offer, the first thing you should expect is to wait. The screenshot below is the Virtual Queue that’s been used for recent releases. This is what you may see for much of the offer release day. It can be annoying to wait, but the good news is that this Virtual Queue process usually works smoothly and keeps the site from crashing. Just make sure not to close or refresh the page.

Free Dining Might Not Be Your Best Deal

If you don’t want to buy Park Hopper tickets, or have some other point of friction with the Free Dining terms, there are other discounts! There are already other discounts available that overlap with the Free Dining offer dates. It’s not uncommon to find that Free Dining offers are more favorable for larger families, and room discounts are more favorable for smaller parties.

For the last two summers, Disney World has also released very nice promotional summer ticket specials with savings of 15-30% off regular ticket prices. We think it’s likely we’ll see a similar promotional ticket this summer. These ticket offers are also per person, which strengthens the benefit of a discount ticket plus a discount room. That could skew the best savings away from Free Dining even for larger groups.
