Disney World offers four types of annual passes including the Incredi-Pass, Sorcerer Pass, Pirate Pass, and Pixie Dust Pass. If you are not a Florida resident or Disney Vacation Club (DVC) member, the only available annual pass for purchase is the Incredi-Pass. Although this is the most expensive Disney World annual pass, it comes with the most benefits, including no blockout dates! In fact, the Disney Incredi-Pass is the only Disney World annual pass that doesn't have any blockout dates. Disney Incredi-Pass annual passholders also receive free theme park parking, discounts on food and merchandise, as well as other perks.
Although Disney World annual passes aren't for everyone, there are a lot of benefits to being a passholder if you plan on visiting Disney World multiple times throughout the year! I am an annual passholder, Disney Vacation Club (DVC) member, and visit the Disney World parks monthly, and therefore I frequently utilize the various perks and benefits from being a Disney World annual passholder.
This article will focus on all things Disney Incredi-Pass, including the price, benefits, and discounts associated with being a Disney Incredi-Pass annual passholder!

Disney Incredi-Pass Benefits
There are so many benefits to becoming a Disney World annual passholder, including complimentary theme park parking and discounts on food and merchandise! If you plan on visiting the Disney World theme parks at least a couple times in the same year, you may want to consider purchasing an annual pass.
No Blockout Dates!
The Incredi-Pass is the only Disney World annual pass that has no blockout dates. This means you can visit any Disney World theme park on any day throughout the year, including Christmas. You can see the full list of blockout dates for all Disney World annual passes here.
Park Hopping
All Disney World annual passholders can park hop at anytime throughout the day! Disney World tickets with the park hopper option are more expensive than single park tickets, making this a great perk. Although Disney World passholders are still required to make park reservations on most days, they are able to hop to any park at any time once they have entered the park at which they have a reservation. Disney Incredi-Pass holders are some of the only passholders that can have up to five park reservations at a time on a rolling basis.
Free Standard Theme Park Parking
All Disney World annual passholders are able to park at any theme park for free, they just need to show their annual pass and valid photo ID at the parking gate. Preferred parking is also available, however, passholders would need to pay the difference between preferred and standard parking if they choose preferred parking. Standard parking typically costs $30, and preferred parking costs between $45 and $55 depending on the season.
The only other time guests receive free theme park parking is if they are staying at a Disney World hotel. However, the free parking for passholders is more convenient especially if they are only visiting for the day or staying off Disney property.
Limited Edition Passholder Merchandise and Snacks
Another perk to being a Disney Incredi-Pass holder includes access to the infamous passholder magnets, merchandise (shirts, pins, etc.), PhotoPass opportunities, and even passholder exclusive snacks! These passholder exclusives frequently change, but there is always something to look forward to during your next trip to Disney World.
Experience New Attractions Before the Public
When a new attraction opens, such as Tiana's Bayou Adventure, passholders almost always have the chance to experience the ride before it opens to the public! This is such a cool perk that many passholders love. Although this doesn't happen too often, this is one of my favorite perks of being an annual passholder!

Disney Incredi-Pass Pricing and Add-Ons
The Disney Incredi-Pass is the most expensive Disney World annual pass, mainly because there are no blockout dates. The Disney Incredi-Pass costs $1,449 plus tax. Florida residents can also utilize the Florida Resident Monthly Payment Program to purchase a Disney Incredi-Pass at 0% interest which would cost $205 down and approximately $111 per month.
Another perk of being a Disney World annual passholder is the option to purchase add-ons at a discounted rate. For an additional $99 per year, passholders have access to unlimited digital downloads of any photos taken by the PhotoPass cast members throughout the park, including ride photos! I highly recommend purchasing this add-on because typically photo downloads, also known as the memory maker package, cost $185 for a 30-day time frame (or $210 if not purchased in advance). Guests can also purchase a memory maker one-day package for $75. Therefore, $99 is a great deal for one year.
Disney Incredi-Pass holders can also purchase a water park and sports option for $99 per year. This option gives admission to Disney World’s water parks, golf courses, and other sports experiences. The admission to these experiences have no blockout dates! This add-on includes access to:
- Admission to either Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon Water Park or Disney’s Blizzard Beach Water Park (whichever is open)
- Disney’s Oak Trail Golf Course
- FootGolf at Disney’s Oak Trail
- Disney’s Fantasia Gardens Miniature Golf Course (one round prior to 4:00 PM)
- Disney’s Winter Summerland Miniature Golf Course (one round prior to 4:00 PM)
- ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex
Disney Incredi-Pass Discounts
Another reason to consider purchasing a Disney Incredi-Pass is because it comes with a TON of discounts throughout Disney World property! Discounts include, but are not limited to:
- Disney World Resorts: Annual passholders often receive significant discounts when booking their Disney resort! This includes value, moderate, and deluxe resorts, some of which have discounts of over $100 per night!
- Dining: Annual passholders receive a 10% discount on most table service restaurants at Disney World theme parks, Disney World resorts, Disney Springs, and the ESPN Wide World of Sports Grill. Some restaurants do not accept discounts, however, I always ask!
- Merchandise: Annual passholder receive a 20% discount on regularly priced merchandise throughout Disney World property including theme parks, resorts, Disney Springs, and the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex. This discount often excludes park tickets, gift cards, and limited edition or special items such as legacy lightsabers.
- Events & Entertainment: Annual passholders also receive discounts on various events and entertainment throughout Disney World property. Some examples include $2 off the AMC movie theatre at Disney Springs, 15% off the Keys to the Kingdom Tour at Magic Kingdom, and 15% off the cost of the Behind the Seeds tour at EPCOT.
- Sports & Recreation: Annual passholders can take advantage of various discounts related to sports and recreation. Some examples include 15% bike rentals at any Disney World resort marina, and 15% off a regularly priced round of putt-putt for a passholder and up to 3 guests at Fantasia Gardens and Fairways Miniature Golf.
- After Hours and Special Events: Annual passholders can receive discounts on special events, including after hours and holiday parties such as Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party and Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party. Please note discounts may not be available on events occurring during peak times, but it's always worth checking!
Is the Disney Incredi-Pass Worth It?
Usually when people ask me if an annual pass is worth the purchase, I start by asking how many days they plan to spend in the Disney World parks per year. A 10-day park hopper ticket costs between approximately $775 and $900, depending on the season. This does not include the cost of merchandise, food, hotels, photos, and other activities you may spend money on during your trip to Disney World.
With that said, I usually recommend the Disney Incredi-Pass to guests who plan on visiting the parks more than ten times during the year. Another great perk of having an annual pass is that you don't feel as rushed or pressured to get everything done in a single day, or spend every waking hour inside the theme parks. Annual passes allow guests to enjoy many other amazing things outside of the Disney World theme parks. For example, if you want to spend the day enjoying your Disney hotel, but spend a couple hours at Magic Kingdom at night to watch the fireworks, annual passes are a great perk!
If you only plan on spending a week or less in Disney World throughout the year, an annual pass may not be the right fit for you and your party. However, there are always tons of great ways to save money on Disney World tickets! Be sure to check out our ultimate guide to current Disney World ticket and hotel discounts! I also recommend checking out Disney's ticket deals on their website for other current offers.
