Attention, Disney enthusiasts! Big news is coming out from Disneyland in California, and it’s bound to stir conversations amongst park-goers.
Starting today, Disneyland has announced a price revision for its most in-demand ticket tiers. While the base entry price remains unchanged at $104, other tickets will see an increase ranging from $7 to $12, translating to approximately a 5.9% to 6.5% jump. This means crowd-pleasing seasons like Christmas, Halloween, and school holidays will cost a bit more – reflecting a demand-based pricing model similar to airlines and hotels.
Even the park’s Magic Key annual pass hasn’t escaped the price adjustment. Depending on the pass type, the increases span from $100 to $125, or about 6% to 20%. The Magic Key program, with its various tiers, gives Disney devotees access to different park dates and some cool perks. From merchandise discounts to early access to new attractions like Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, it’s designed to keep the magic alive year-round!
However, it’s not all price hikes at the happiest place on Earth. For those planning visits during the off-peak periods, there are some serious deals to be had. Disneyland recently introduced a fantastic offer for kids – tickets priced at just $50, available starting October 22 and usable from January 7. There are also hotel deals offering up to a 20% discount, making it more affordable for families to experience Disney magic in the early part of the year when the parks are quieter.
“We always provide a wide variety of ticket, dining, and hotel options, and promotional offers throughout the year, to welcome as many families as possible,” shared Jessica Good, a Disneyland Resort spokesperson. So, while the peak times may be pricier, there’s still plenty of magic to be had without breaking the bank if you plan smartly.
