Many US Military Bases have a Ticket and Travel Office where you can purchase Disney and theme park tickets.
This is our special Ticket Office page just for Non-Retired Military Members, or in other words, Veterans.
Many Veterans are able to use Base Ticket Offices to purchase affordable military discounted tickets for their Walt Disney World vacation. Please see our Eligibility Overview Page to determine if you are eligible.
If you are a current or retired military member, see our non-tailored Ticket Office Page.
Base Ticket Offices sell a variety of tickets. Non-Retired veterans who are eligible for the Disabled Veterans Equal Access Act of 2018 may purchase all tickets that these offices sell, except those that require a current valid military ID for use (those being the Disney Armed Forces Salute Tickets and Universal Orlando’s Freedom Pass).
The Disney tickets that you can purchase are the Regular Disney Military Ticket Discount for Walt Disney World and Disneyland.
Base Ticket Office prices for the Regular Military Discount Tickets are usually very comparable to those at the Shades of Green Ticket Office.
Here’s a post on why prices vary.
There can be both advantages and disadvantages with buying your tickets on base prior to your departure.
The advantages are:
- In order to make Theme Park Reservations you’ll need your tickets in hand well prior to your arrival date.
- By buying your tickets ahead of time, you can spread out the cost of your vacation by paying for tickets ahead. Or if using Regular Military Discounted Magic Your Way tickets you can buy your tickets prior to an anticipated ticket price increase.
The disadvantages are:
- Many Base Ticket Offices carry only a limited selection of tickets i.e. type or number of days. But they can most likely order what you need (it may take a week or two to do so).
- Plan on stopping by the ticket office at least 2 to 3 weeks before you’d like to have the tickets in hand in case they need to order them!
- If you don’t have enough time for them to order your tickets, you’ll have to buy them once you arrive at Disney. Regular Military Discounted Disney tickets can only be purchased from Shades of Green. Walt Disney World does not sell these.
