Why Choose a Season Pass?

 

Best Bang for Your Buck


Frequent park visitors will easily save money by opting for the Season Pass, especially if you love returning for iconic events throughout the year (we see you, foam party fans!). Don’t forget the added perks, like discounts that cover everything from snacks to souvenirs. 


Spread Out Your Visits


With the Season Pass, you don’t have to cram all your activities into two months. Visiting three times during the season already means you’ve surpassed the value of your pass.

From summer festivals to Halloween-inspired events, the unlimited access that comes with a Season Pass ensures you’ll never miss a moment.
