What is the Lightning Lane Premier Pass?

The Lightning Lane Premier Pass is a limited-quantity, expedited entry pass that allows one-time entry to each Lightning Lane attraction at either Disneyland or Walt Disney World. This includes both multi-pass attractions and single-pass attractions. The best part is that you don’t have to select a specific experience time! That’s right, no more stressing about ride times or juggling your itinerary. You can enter each Lightning Lane attraction whenever you’re ready, giving you maximum flexibility to enjoy your day without the hassle of locking in time slots.

How Does It Work?

The Lightning Lane Premier Pass operates on a first-come, first-served basis and will be available for purchase based on availability. Prices will vary depending on the date and the park you’re visiting, but here’s a breakdown of how it will roll out at both Disneyland and Walt Disney World.

Disneyland Lightning Lane Premier Pass:

  • Available starting October 23, 2024.
  • You can purchase the Premier Pass two days before your reserved park day, giving you a head start on securing it.
  • Valid for use across both Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure, this pass opens up endless opportunities for your magical adventure.

Why Is This a Game Changer?

While the traditional Lightning Lane options still exist, the Premier Pass eliminates the need to schedule times, allowing guests to enjoy a more spontaneous, carefree Disney experience. Plus, if you’re a die-hard Disney fan, you’ve likely noticed the similarities between this and the Express Pass offered by a certain other theme park in Orlando. However, with the Premier Pass, Disney’s combining convenience with that signature magic to take your vacation to the next level.
