New Walt Disney World Annual Passes Available September 8th, 2021

Hi everyone –

New Walt Disney World Annual Passes will be sold starting September 8th, in time for The World’s Most Magical Celebration. The passes will also have new names and prices. Two of these passes are available to Florida Residents only – the Disney Pixie Dust Pass and Disney Pirate Pass. Disney Sorcerer Pass is available for Florida Residents and Disney Vacation Club members. And then the Disney Incredi-Pass is for everyone and tops out at $1299.00 plus tax (Photopass is not included, nor water parks). I’m glad I had my renewal in June so I can decide next year which pass to choose. More information is below and you can see a chart here.

Shawn Slater on the Disney Parks Blog gives a rundown on what is new with the passes.

What’s New

Here are some highlights of our new Annual Passes:

  • Hold More Park Reservations: Depending on their pass type, Passholders may now hold up to five Disney Park Pass reservations at a time. We’ll also be adding “bonus reservations” to the calendar from time to time, so Passholders can make an additional park reservation without it counting against their applicable reservation hold limit. Plus, when Passholders stay at Disney Resort hotels or other select hotels, they will also be eligible to make theme park reservations for each day of their stay – in addition to the reservations you can hold based on your pass type!
  • Customize Your Pass: Choose different add-on options based on your preferences – from the Water Park and Sports option to Disney PhotoPass downloads. These add-on options will be available for purchase with any of our four new passes.
  • Access a New Integrated Calendar: Planning will be easier with enhancements to our reservation system, including a new integrated calendar that lets Passholders quickly see blockout dates for each pass type, view available days and make, modify or cancel a reservation all in one place.
  • Enjoy Passholder Perks: Passes will continue to offerbenefits you know and love including the Park Hopper option, standard theme park parking and discounts on merchandise and dining. And, there will be a few special surprises throughout the 50th anniversary celebration!

We’re also introducing a new look for the Annual Passholder program to honor our past while looking forward to the future. Using a piece of the original Walt Disney World Resort logo as a foundation for bright colors and energetic design, the program’s new look puts Passholders right in the middle of the magic.

Please note as we continue to manage attendance to provide a great experience for everyone, at any time, Annual Passes may be unavailable for purchase. Annual Passholders will also still be required to make park reservations for each day of their visit. Go to DisneyWorld.com/Pass for more information and important details about our new Annual Passes.
