LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. - The next time you visit Disney World, it might be more expensive.
The resort has raised prices on some of its tickets and annual passes.
Peak single-day ticket hits $229
Disney World ticket prices are based on date, so prices will vary depending on when you go.
With the new price hike, the peak one-day, one-park ticket increases to $229 for holiday dates in 2027.
The Disney World calendar shows the price for tickets to Magic Kingdom and EPCOT on Christmas Day and New Year's Eve.
That's up from $209 for the same dates this year.
The lowest-priced one-day, one-park ticket, a $119 ticket to Disney's Animal Kingdom, remains unchanged.
Annual pass prices hit new high
Disney World also raised prices on all its annual passes, effective Tuesday.
The hikes range between $10 and $120, depending on the pass type.
- Pixie Pass - $499 (previous price: $489)
- Pirate Pass - $909 (previous price: $869)
- Sorcerer Pass - $1,139 (previous price: $1,099)
- Incredi-Pass - $1,749 (previous price: $1,629)
The Pixie Dust Pass and the Pirate Pass are limited to Florida residents, while the Sorcerer Pass is available to Florida residents and Disney Vacation Club members.
The most expensive pass, the Incredi-Pass, can be purchased by all visitors.
Lightning Lane
The price hikes also hit some of Disney World's premium offerings like Lightning Lane, its skip-the-line service.
The price ceiling for Lightning Lane Premier Pass, which gives visitors one-time access to every Lightning Lane attraction at their selected park, increases by $50.
Disney did not change prices for Lightning Lane Multi Pass.
Disney World construction, expansions
What's next:
Although Disney World raises prices slightly every year, this increase comes as the resort undergoes a massive transformation.
Several new attractions and experiences are set to debut in the next few years.
Magic Kingdom is getting a Cars-themed land and a Villains Land.
