When Disney World and Disneyland closed in March 2020, many changes took place. Among those were their annual pass programs. At one point, you could not purchase new passes for either coast for several months.

In August 2021, Disney finally announced new/modified programs at both Disneyland and Disney World. There are now more tiers, higher prices, and different park pass allotments.

However, that was short lived as many of the tiers sold out. They have been unavailable for months. Most Guests who want to purchase new passes or let their passes expire are out of luck. If you currently have a pass and are even considering visiting in the future, keep your pass current! Do not let it expire!

Disney World annual passes will not resume before the end of 2022. On the other hand, Disneyland resumed sales of passes yesterday, November 16.

The Magic Key program provides reservation-based admission to one or both Disneyland Resort theme parks where you’ll make memories visit after visit. Magic Key passes feature a variety of admission opportunities, pricing options, experiences, and savings on food, beverages and merchandise.

Magic Key holders enjoy admission opportunities, value and convenience at the Disneyland Resort. Whether you consider yourself a Mouseketeer, Space Ranger or superhero, there is something for everyone as a Magic Key holder.

Take a look at last year’s prices, and see how they’ve increased. The Inspire, Believe, and Imagine passes resumed sales with the following new pricing:

  • Inspire: $1599
  • Believe: $1099
  • Imagine: $449 (Southern California residents only)

Unfortunately, Disneyland did not make the Enchant pass available.
