What to Pack and What to Wear to Walt Disney World in July 2024

It’s officially summertime at Walt Disney World and that means you’ll want to pay special attention to what you pack for a July Disney World vacation. What you need to know to be sure you cover all the bases.

What to Pack and What to Wear to Walt Disney World in July
 
July in Orlando and Walt Disney World is hot. It’s the first of the two hottest months of the year for a Walt Disney World vacation. However, we vacation at Walt Disney World every year at this time and while it’s hot, it’s still a good time to visit.
 
July Weather Forecast for Walt Disney World
 
The weather in July at Walt Disney World is usually hot, but not necessarily overly humid. For 2024, the forecast for July is looking fairly consistent over the course of the month. You can expect daytime highs in the range of 87˚F to 95˚F (30˚C to 35˚C), with nighttime lows in the range of 65˚F to 77˚F (18˚C to 25˚C). These temperatures do not include the humidity, which can make it feel hotter.
 
Heat, Rain and More to Consider When Packing for Walt Disney World
 
While the second half of the month may be slightly wetter, it’s very hard to accurately predict rain at Walt Disney World in the summer…other than to say the best defence is a good offence. This means that you should always consider that it will probably rain at some point in your trip, when you’re packing for a July Walt Disney World vacation. On top of the summer afternoon and early evening showers that can build due to the heat, there is also the potential for tropical storms and active weather to become part of the mix. 
 
As always, we recommend that you check the weather with a local weather station in Orlando the day before you arrive at Walt Disney World. This will give you the best idea of the type of weather you may get during your stay and can help with any last-minute packing decisions.
 
In addition to the rain, heat can also be a factor for many Walt Disney World travelers in July. While much of North America has been sweltering under a heat dome already in 2024, Disney World in July is hot. However, this is often overblown by sensationalist articles and there are plenty of ways to keep your cool and find air conditioning. So be sure to give yourself and your family a break and take the time to cool off when the heat builds (including resort hotel pool time).
 
It's Florida. It’s July. It’s going to be hot. No need to overthink it or dramatize it. Just plan for it.
 
What to Pack for Walt Disney World in July
 
July at Walt Disney World means you should pack your coolest, lightest and most quick-dry clothing for everyone in your group. Avoid black or dark colored t-shirts as they attract the heat of the sun. You should pack white and lighter weight clothing for sure along, with a good supply of sunscreen (and Gold Bond powder if you think you may need it).
 
T-Shirts, tank tops and loose-fitting button-up shirts are all good items for tops. Shorts (lightweight and quick dry) are a top pick as well. Skirts, sundresses and bicycle shorts are also good items to pack.
 
For the record, don’t forget to pack the swimwear (not that you likely would).
