Disney Youth Group New Trip Options

From tykes to teens, grads to coeds, groups from around the world are choosing the Walt Disney World^® Theme Parks as their trip destination for the year.

Youth groups from around the world are happy to discover that the Walt Disney World^® Resort offers a variety of specially price Theme Park, recreation, dining, and accommodations options.

Youth Group leaders can now plan a Disney trip that is affordable for every young person in their group.

"It's great to walk through our Parks and see students so excited just taking it in and experiencing it all together with their friends and classmates," said Charles Thomas, Marketing Director for Disney Youth Group Programs. "It's particularly gratifying for me because I realize that our youth group opportunities may be the only way some will ever visit Walt Disney World".

Disney Youth Group Programs are designed specifically for students in the areas of music, education, senior celebration, and fun.

Groups take center stage 365 days a year to entertain people from around the globe at the Walt Disney World^® Resort. Disney Magic Music Days is recognized as one of the premier performance opportunities for bands, orchestras, choirs, dance ensembles and drill teams. To be considered for a performance opportunity, groups are required to audition via videotape, and submit an official application and photograph of the group in costume. Performance showcases are offered year-round.

Disney Youth Education Series (Y.E.S.) transports students inside and behind the scenes of Walt Disney World Theme Parks to showcase textbook principles. Disney Y.E.S. field studies allow students to do things they can't do anywhere else in the world. Participants find enrichment, inspiration, and pure fun as they see how principles they're learning in the classroom are making exciting things happen every day in and around the Walt Disney World Resort. Areas of study include Arts and Literature, Humanities, Natural Science, Animal Encounters, and Physical Science.

For youth groups who are focused only on fun in the Parks, Disney Theme Park Adventures offers specially-priced Theme Park admission packages for organized youth groups of 10 or more, ages 3-22 years old.
