The Insider’s Guide to Holiday World Season Passes
It has been the summer of Holiday World for this little St. Louis family of mine!
After all we are only 3 hours away from Santa Claus, Indiana making it the perfect distance for a weekend getaway or even a quick day trip.
As a HoliBlogger my family and I received Holiday World Season Passes so we could go to the park any time we wanted, all season long. And the season isn’t over yet! Platinum Season Passes include extra savings that we’ve really been enjoying.
Read on to get all of the ins and outs of the exclusive deals you’ll get with your own Season Pass!
The Insider’s Guide to Holiday World Season Passes
My kids have really enjoyed having their very own Platinum Season Pass this year. They love to say that we have unlimited Holiday World tickets. Because in a sense we really do. We’ve enjoyed our time at both the Holiday World theme park and Splashin’ Safari water park. Like I said, it has been a Holiday World summer for us!
We are returning to the park that gives everyone free soft drinks, free sunscreen and free parking again on September 24th for the start of Happy Halloween Weekends! The kids cannot wait. (There’s one little blonde girl at our house who is ecstatic to take a spin again on all the thrill rides and roller coasters, particularly that Thunderbird wing coaster.)
Okay I cannot wait either. Holiday World is just so much fun.
Having a Season Pass really does make it that much more spectacular.
How to get a Holiday World Season Pass
It’s really easy to purchase a Season Pass to Holiday World so that you can get all the great perks.
You can either purchase via an online order or in person at the park entrance. Either way you will purchase the Season Pass first and then on your first time visiting the park for the season you will process and receive the official card with your picture on it.
Where to get your Season Pass picture taken
Just at the front gate, to the left of the Guest Relations sales office area and the ticket booth, you will take your personal identifying information (driver’s license or state ID) to the Season Pass office. Then you’ll get your picture taken and receive your very own Season Pass.
What we’ve enjoyed most about our Platinum Season Passes
Season Passholders get access to special events and even monthly food deals. It really is the best choice for saving at the holiday themed park.
In addition to the unlimited visits, we’ve loved being able to bring a friend with discounted day tickets. In July we were able to experience Holiday World with my parents and niece.
We’ve also really enjoyed discounts on food and gift shop purchases. A few of our favorites eats and treats are the deep fried Oreos, funnel cakes and of course Dole Whip!
