You've probably already heard the news on our socials, three of our team members have purchased a Disneyland Annual Pass. This also allows us to bring the magic from Disneyland Paris directly to you more often!

Maybe you are a huge Disneyland Paris fan like us and have also wondered how exactly those annual passes work and whether it is worth it. That is why in this blog we will go into more detail about the different types of annual passes, the prices and the pros and cons.

But when is it worth it?

If you find that you can't get enough of Disneyland Paris and would actually like to go more often during the year, then it is definitely worth considering a Disneyland annual pass. If you also regularly spend some money in the boutiques and/or often visit the restaurants, the advantage of the discount with the Silver and Gold pass can quickly add up. The parking costs that you save also saves you €30 per day. This means that you can just as well choose a cheaper non-Disney hotel, if the parking costs are a consideration. Let's also do a quick calculation of how often you would have to go to Disneyland Paris to get the price of the annual passes back (excl. the savings on parking costs and discounts in boutiques/restaurants):

If you plan to only go on quieter days, a dated ticket will cost you an average of €85, you would then have to go with the Disneyland Pass Bronze for at least 4 days a year to get the most out of it. The disadvantage is that you can only go on weekdays in the low season, but then as often as you want!

If you prefer to go on weekends, a dated ticket will cost you an average of €100. With the Disneyland Pass Silver, you would have to go at least 5 days a year to get your money's worth.

If you really want the full experience and take in all the high and festive seasons, a dated ticket will cost you an average of €115. You would then have to go at least 6 days a year with the Disneyland Pass Gold to get your money's worth.

The Disneyland pass is therefore quickly worth it for the true Disneyland Paris fan!

Additional benefits

Friends and family tickets

The friends and family tickets are available occasionally. For example, last summer there was a promotion where friends and family of annual pass holders could get a 50% discount on a dated day ticket. As an annual pass holder, you share these tickets with your friend or family member. They themselves receive a digital ticket to scan at the gates. As an annual pass holder, you do not have to be present yourself. Keep an eye on the socials of Disneyland Paris to see when they are available again.

Special events

In addition, as an annual pass holder you will have access to special Annual Pass Holder events. Make sure you register for these events on time, because they are very popular. You also have the option to buy an extra ticket for an event for a maximum of one person without an annual pass. In addition, there are also other surprises for annual pass holders, such as special meetings with Disney characters. Keep an eye on the website and social media of Disneyland Paris for this.

 

Important things to keep in mind:

• Access must be reserved in advance via the reservation platform.
• There is a maximum of 3 simultaneous reservations.
• There is a maximum capacity within the Disneyland Paris parks, so don't wait too long to reserve your admission.
• There are a limited number of Disneyland Passes for sale, so there is a chance that they will no longer be sold at some point.
• The special offer for renewing an annual pass is no longer available.
• There are no special annual passes for children. Children up to 2 years are free and no reservation is required for this.
