Disney announced Wednesday that the entertainment giant is raising admission prices to its theme parks, effective immediately.
Certain types of admission to Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida, and Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California, will cost more, the company told CBS News. On some of the most popular days of the year to visit both parks, a day ticket will cost around $199, currently the most expensive pass.
The price increases come amid growing demand to visit Disney park on certain days, such as New Year’s Eve. For Thanksgiving week, Nov. 24-29, the price of admission to Disneyland will increase from $199 to $224, according to the Disney website. Prices will increase by the same amount for the holiday period between December 20 and January 3.
At Disneyland Resort, pass prices are also increasing. It offers seven different ticket tiers, five of which increase by 3% or less, Disney told CBS News. The cheapest ticket will remain unchanged at $104.
The price of Disney’s Inspire and Believe Magic Key passes – its highest tier passes – will increase by $150 and $100, respectively. The Inspire Key now costs $1,899 and the Believe Key costs $1,474. The price of Enchant and Imagine passes will not increase, the company said.
At Walt Disney World, the cheapest and most expensive tickets on sale through October 2026 remain unchanged.
“Disney Parks offer a full day of experiences every day, with ticket, hotel and dining options designed to meet a wide range of needs and budgets for everyone who visits them. Our commitment to creating magical experiences for everyone remains at the heart of what we do – and that will never change,” Disney officials said in a statement.
