Disney Raises U.S. Park Prices as Peak Days Cross $200 and Disneyland Hikes Take Effect

Disney cites peak demand, new investments, higher cast wages as reasons.

Overview

  • At Disneyland, the top Tier 6 one-day ticket rose to $224, while the lowest $104 tier stays unchanged and more $104 days were added over the next six months.
  • Walt Disney World confirmed its highest one-day ticket will reach $209 during the 2026 holiday period, with the lowest-priced $119 entry holding through at least October 2026.
  • Disneyland’s Inspire Key increased $150 to $1,899 and the Believe Key rose $100 to $1,474, while new Walt Disney World annual pass prices are up $20–$80 and some renewals increased $40–$80.
  • Add-ons and fees climbed across both resorts, including Park Hopper to $70–$90 per day, standard parking up $5 to $40 at Disneyland and $35 at Disney World, and higher Lightning Lane pricing tied to date and park.
  • Targeted deals accompanied the changes, including a California resident three-day Park Hopper starting at $249 for early 2026 visits and room-and-ticket discounts at Disney World that can stack with free dining for kids.
