Disney World Annual Pass Prices by Tier, Plus October Watch
Published September 15, 2026 · Updated October 20, 2026
Reports on Tuesday, September 15, said Walt Disney World Annual Pass prices could be headed for another October increase at Walt Disney World if Disney repeats its recent pattern. Disney has not announced a 2026 Annual Pass price increase, and as of Tuesday, September 15, there is no official date or confirmed amount.
The report points to three straight years of October Annual Pass price increases at Walt Disney World. Disney raised Annual Pass prices on October 11, 2023, October 23, 2024, and October 8, 2025.
The most recent increase, on October 8, 2025, raised prices across all four Annual Pass tiers. Depending on the pass, the jump ranged from $20 to $80.
The Incredi-Pass matters most for many out-of-state guests because it is the Annual Pass available to anyone. The lower-priced passes have eligibility rules, residency requirements, or other limits, according to the report.

What’s not confirmed

Disney has not announced a date, amount, or tier-by-tier pricing for any possible 2026 adjustment. Any specific 2026 Annual Pass price would be speculation right now.
What it means for your trip
If you already know you want a Walt Disney World Annual Pass, the practical move is to price it now instead of assuming today’s numbers will hold into October. That does not mean panic-buying; it means doing the math before Disney has any chance to change the chart.
For families buying multiple passes, even a smaller increase can turn into hundreds of extra dollars fast. The Incredi-Pass is the one to watch if you are not Florida-based or eligible for a lower tier, because it is already $1,629 and is the pass most broadly available.
If your break-even math is shaky, do not let a possible increase push you into a bad purchase. Compare the Annual Pass against the actual park days you expect to use, any blackout or eligibility rules that apply to your tier, and whether you would realistically return enough to make the pass earn its keep.
How Much Is a Disney World Annual Pass?
The latest confirmed Walt Disney World Annual Pass prices run from $489 to $1,629, depending on the tier. These are the prices set by the October 8, 2025 increase. Disney has raised prices in October several years in a row, so check Disney’s official Annual Pass page for today’s numbers before you buy.
Disney Annual Pass prices by tier
| Pass | Price after Oct 8, 2025 | Increase |
|---|---|---|
| Disney Pixie Dust Pass | $489 | +$20 |
| Disney Pirate Pass | $869 | +$40 |
| Disney Sorcerer Pass | $1,099 | +$20 |
| Disney Incredi-Pass | $1,629 | +$80 |
Which price actually applies to you
The price that matters is the cheapest pass you can actually buy. The three lower tiers come with eligibility rules, residency requirements or other limits. If you live out of state, your real price is probably the Incredi-Pass at $1,629, because anyone can buy it.
Is it a “season pass”?
If you searched for a Disney World season pass price, this is the product you want. Disney World calls it an Annual Pass, and the four tiers above are the options.
The smart move
Work out your break-even before you look at the chart. Take what you’d pay for regular date-based tickets for the park days you’ll realistically use and compare it to the pass price for your tier. Check that tier’s blackout dates against when you’d actually go. If the pass only wins because you’re guessing at extra trips you probably won’t take, skip it. Buying early to avoid a price increase only saves money if the pass already made sense.
