The Pre-K Pass is intended for children of Pre-K age, however, enrollment in a Pre-K program isn’t required. Enrollment in a Pre-K program does not guarantee eligibility.

Children born from July 1, 2019 through October 25, 2021 are eligible. Children born after October 25, 2021 should be 3 years old for the entire season, and therefore will not need a ticket or Pre-K Pass for entry.

An age-confirming document. This must be a government-issued document that states the child’s date of birth. Digital versions or copies are acceptable, provided they are legible.
 
Here are some examples of acceptable documents:

• Birth Certificate
• Passport
• Green Card
• Foster Care Document with date of birth

If you have your confirmation email from registering the Pre-K Pass, it may help in the process but isn’t required.
 
The following are not acceptable documents:

• Hospital-issued birth certificates/records
• Applications for government-issued documents
• MyChart account

No! You can come with a Pick Your Date Ticket, or any ticket of your choosing. However, if you choose not to purchase a Season Pass, please remember that the Pre-K Pass is still a Season Pass and you will need to go through Season Pass processing.

Please allow extra time for processing, as we will need to verify the child’s age with a government-issued document that states the child’s date of birth (digital copies are acceptable), and we will need to take their picture and print out a Pass. Depending on the time of year, there may be a line.

Make sure you have your age-confirming document ready! Here are some other ways to skip the processing line:

• Process later in the day; lines are usually longest between 9:30am and 11:00am, so if you arrive after 1:00pm, the line should be shorter
• Visit during our early-season processing days (Visit HolidayWorld.com/Passes for dates that start in April)

Remember we’re on Central Time

The last day for Pre-K Pass registration this year is June 30, 2025. Once a pass has been registered, it can be processed any day we’re open to the public (including early-season processing in April).

Pre-K Passholders may attend Passholder-exclusive events as long as they’re visiting with a family member whose Pass allows them entry to that event in 2025.

No. Pre-K Passes must be added to your shopping cart and registered with Passholder information online.
 
We’ll process the Pre-K Pass at the park with age-confirming documents, such as a government-issued birth certificate, passport, or green card. We’re not able to register any Pre-K Passes at the park or over the phone.
