Along with Annual Passholders, the Disney Vacation Club is an exclusive group consisting of huge fans of the Walt Disney World Resort and who travel to the Parks frequently. These Guests get special access to hotel rooms, discounts, and all sorts of other goodies. One of the biggest benefits from joining was the early and/or later access to the Parks that members were offered, that is until COVID-19 started to spreading early 2020.

Moonlight Magic, a special event only for DVC members was an event that allowed Guests to stay in the Parks late on select days for shorter wait times, character sightings, reimagined entertainment, and complimentary treats. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the event was canceled for the last two years until just now.
