DVC Lounge in EPCOT
We just got the opportunity to tour the newest DVC lounge in Disney Springs and waiting for the next DVC lounge to be built in Magic Kingdom, there’s a few more perks for members to enjoy even sooner! Days ago, Disney announced MORE limited-time perks would be coming for Disney Vacation Club members and now that time has come!
Welcome Home Weeks are finally ready to begin! This limited-time offer will run from July 22nd through August 24th, 2024 and will include 7 new perks for DVC members across Disney World AND Disneyland.

Will you be taking advantage of these limited-time perks for Disney Vacation Club members? Leave us your plans in the comments below!
Just a note to add that my guess is a lot of these perks are only available to DVC members that purchased their points directly through Disney. We are DVC members who purchased our DVC points/deed from someone who was looking to sell theirs because they no longer could go as often and Disney has slowly removed all DVC perks like these from us over the years. Which is odd considering that as time goes on, a lot of DVC members will have purchased them second-hand. It definitely makes you feel like a 2nd class citizen despite spending thousands of dollars.
