New Operating Hours for Disney Vacation Club EPCOT Lounge in January 2025

Member Benefits and Perks

Disney Vacation Club ImaginAtrium - A Member Lounge will see expanded operating hours beginning in January 2025 with the introduction of Membership Magic Beyond

EPCOT Disney Vacation Club Lounge Tower

Starting January 12, the Disney Vacation Club members-only lounge at EPCOT will open an hour earlier for all members, while adding 3 evening hours for those who join the new paid member perks program. 

Through January 11, the lounge's standard operating hours will remain 11am to 6pm daily. The following day, hours will shift to 10am to 5pm for all qualifying DVC members. Meanwhile, those who buy into the higher tier perks program will also be able to access the lounge from 6pm to 9pm daily. All of these schedules are subject to change. 



It is not immediately clear why the lounge will close from 5pm to 6pm daily. The overview of Membership Magic Beyond indicates that the lounge will host exclusive character meets for participating owners. These character appearances are likely to occur between the 6-9pm timeframe. 

Membership Magic Beyond is priced at $99 for the 2025 year. In addition to the expanded lounge hours and character encounters, participants will also receive preferred access to all of the Disney Vacation Club lounges whenever a waiting list is utilized. Other perks include a 2-for-1 offer on One Time Use points and specially priced ticket offers for Disneyland and Walt Disney World

The EPCOT lounge opened back in 2016 on the 2nd floor of the Imagination Pavilion as part of Disney Vacation Club's 25th anniversary celebration. Next year, a new lounge dubbed McKim's Mile House is set to open at the Magic Kingdom. In order to access any of these spaces, individuals must own at least 150 points purchased direct from DVC unless grandfathered under prior criteria.
