Domestic Disney Parks Operating Income for Q3 2025 Increases by 22%, Despite Opening of Epic Universe

The Walt Disney Company released their Q3 FY2025 fiscal report on Wednesday morning for the quarter ending on June 28, 2025. Disney Experiences saw a segment operating income of $2.5 billion during the quarter, an increase of $294 million over Q3 in FY24. The domestic parks saw an operating income increase of 22% to $1.7 billion. This increase comes in spite of Universal opening its latest gate in Orlando, Universal Epic Universe, which welcomed guests on May 22, 2025.

Operating income for the international parks decreased by 3%, from $435 million to $422 million. Consumer products had a minor increase in operating income this quarter of 1%, from $40 million to $444 million.

The total revenue for Disney Experiences increased by 8% from the previous year, from $8.386 million to $9.086 million. Domestic parks revenue increased by 10%, international parks increased by 6%, and consumer products increased by 3%.

Disney credits the operating income in the quarter due to growth at the domestic parks and resorts and, to a lesser extent, Disney Cruise Line. The report specifically calls out an increase in guest spending due to higher spending at the parks, and higher volumes attributed to increases in passenger cruise days and occupied room nights (additional passenger cruise days reflected the launch of the Disney Treasure in Q1 FY2025).

Disney noted that costs increased in the quarter primarily due to new guest offerings, including the expansion of the Disney Cruise Line fleet.

Our Experiences sement delivered another outstanding quarter driven by growth across all businesses at Domestic Parks & Experiences […] Disney operates in a league of its own, and our achievements this quarter demonstrate how we continue to successfully execute across our strategic priorities […] With ambitious plans ahead for all of our businesses, we’re not done building, and we are excited for the company’s future.

Bob Iger, CEO of The Walt Disney Company.

The Walt Disney Company reported a total revenue of $23.7 billion in Q3 FY2025.
