2024 Season Passes are on sale and our current discount lasts through October 31.
And we’ll let you in on a little secret about Season Pass prices.
Season Passes start at the lowest price of the year each fall and gradually work their way up toward full price the closer we get to Opening Day in May. There are no flash sales or holiday discounts that will make you regret buying early. The lowest price is always right now.
And the savings you can get before October 31 can add up. Here’s how:
- You can get a Season Pass for $155 by Oct. 31, 2023. If you wait until Opening Day, that same Pass will cost you $190.
- Lock in a Platinum Season Pass by Oct. 31, 2023 for $190. By comparison, if you wait until after Opening Day, a regular Season Pass is $190, and a Platinum Season Pass is $225.
Purchase now and you get more perks and lower prices. What’s not to love?
Our Season Passes unlock tons of great perks to use all season long, like in-park savings, discounted locker rental prices, and, discounted Bring A Friend tickets.
But let’s break down one of our Platinum Season Pass perks that often gets overlooked.
“Buy this Year, Visit this Year. Sundays during HHW (when paid in full)”
It’s only a few words on the benefits chart, but there’s a lot of unpacking needed to make sure you’re able to take full advantage of this perk.
Option 1: Buy This Year, Visit This Year
Unlock By:
- Purchasing a 2024 Platinum Season Pass that’s paid in full (but you don’t have a 2023 Season Pass or Platinum Season Pass)
Everything you need to know:
This perk gives you the option to start using your Season Pass early. Instead of waiting for next May and kicking off the season with our Passholder Preview Weekend dates, you can get the fun started this fall and visit on Sundays during Happy Halloween Weekends.
How It Works:
We’ll process your 2024 Platinum Season Pass when you visit any Sunday this fall.
Just bring your printed voucher to Guest Relations and our Pass Photo Processing room to the left of the Front Gate. Then you’re free to visit any Sunday through the rest of the season.
Option 2: Bring A Friend FREE
Unlock By:
- Having a 2023 Season Pass or Platinum Season Pass AND
- Purchasing a 2024 Platinum Season Pass that’s paid in full
Everything you need to know about this perk:
If you’re not able to take advantage of our Buy This Year, Visit This Year perk, that means you’re already a Passholder. Since you already have a 2023 Season Pass or Platinum Season Pass, you’re able to visit any day during Happy Halloween Weekends this season, not just Sundays.
If you purchase a 2024 Platinum Season Pass that’s paid in full, you can technically use BOTH of your Season Passes. But you just need one to get yourself into the park.
So you unlock the rarest type of Bring A Friend ticket we have: the FREE Bring A Friend ticket.
How It Works:
On Sundays during Happy Halloween Weekends, you’re able to use your 2023 Season Pass or Platinum Season Pass to visit and let a friend use your 2024 Platinum Season Pass that’s paid in full to get into the park with you.
Double the fun by visiting with a family member or friend any Sunday through the end of the season.
Don’t forget!
If you’re a 2023 Season Passholder, you can bring a friend for $29.99 on Sundays during Happy Halloween Weekends. If you qualify for option 2, you can bring one friend for free and another for $29.99!
