Disney World and Disneyland Raise Prices on Tickets, Annual Passes and Lightning Lane
Disney World's peak one day ticket now hits $229 and every annual pass tier went up. Disneyland raised four ticket tiers but left Magic Key passes alone.
A Disney trip just got more expensive. Disney raised prices on October 6 at both Walt Disney World and Disneyland, covering one day tickets, annual passes and Lightning Lane, though the two coasts didn't get the same treatment.
Walt Disney World
The top one day, one park ticket climbs $10 to $229, a new peak price. That price only applies to Magic Kingdom on Christmas Day and New Year's Eve in 2027. At the other end of the calendar, the cheapest ticket will be $119 for Animal Kingdom in August 2027.
Every annual pass tier went up. The Incredi-Pass rose $120, from $1,629 to $1,749. The Sorcerer Pass went from $1,099 to $1,139, the Pirate Pass from $869 to $909, and the Pixie Dust Pass from $489 to $499.
The Lightning Lane Premier Pass, the paid option that gets you into the Lightning Lane once for each eligible ride in a park, now tops out at $499 instead of $449. Lightning Lane Multi Pass prices didn't change, and Disney hasn't announced any change to parking.
The new prices arrive while Disney World is in the middle of a big round of expansion, with a Cars themed area and Villains Land coming to Magic Kingdom, a Monsters, Inc. land at Hollywood Studios and a Tropical Americas area at Animal Kingdom.
It also continues a long climb. Ticket prices at Disney World have gone up by as much as 84% over the past ten years, and this round adds to that at the very top of the calendar.
Disneyland Resort
Disneyland's changes are smaller. The cheapest one day ticket stays at $104 and the most expensive stays at $224. The four tiers in between each went up $5, so they now cost $134, $154, $174 and $189. The $199 tier didn't move.
Multi day tickets for a single park held at their old prices too, from $335 for two days up to $520 for five. The Park Hopper add on did go up, and now costs between $75 and $140 extra depending on the ticket, which puts a five day Park Hopper ticket at $660.
Magic Key holders got the best news of the day. None of the four passes changed, so Inspire stays at $1,899, Believe at $1,474, Explore at $999 and Imagine at $599. Parking is unchanged as well, at $40 for a standard car, $45 for an oversized vehicle and $60 for preferred parking.
Lightning Lane Multi Pass at Disneyland now costs $35 a day if you buy it before your visit, up from $34. Same day prices start at $38, a dollar more than before.
The new prices are already live for both resorts, so if you're still pricing out a 2027 trip, these are the numbers to plan around.
