For the first time in March 2025, the Lightning Lane Premier Pass has sold out at all four Walt Disney World parks on the same day, March 17, 2025.
Today’s Sold-Out Premier Pass Prices
- Magic Kingdom: $399
- EPCOT: $249
- Disney’s Hollywood Studios: $339
- Disney’s Animal Kingdom: $159
This marks the first all-park sell-out since February 15, 2025, when Premier Pass previously hit peak demand during the lead-up to Presidents’ Day weekend.
What's Driving the Increased Demand?
Several factors are contributing to today’s across-the-board sell-out:
- Early Spring Break Crowds – While spring break peaks in mid-March, some school districts have already started their breaks, leading to rising attendance.
- Increased Reliance on Premier Pass – With guests looking to avoid lengthy standby waits, Premier Pass offers more flexibility than Lightning Lane Multi Pass by allowing guests to visit attractions at their own pace without pre-selecting times.
- Rising Park Attendance – As Disney World enters one of its busiest seasons, crowd levels are climbing, making Premier Pass a more appealing option for those willing to pay to skip standby lines.
Availability Challenges for Non-Resort Guests
With Premier Pass frequently selling out in recent weeks, purchasing one has become increasingly difficult—especially for non-resort guests.
- Guests staying at Disney Resort hotels can purchase Premier Pass up to 7 days before their stay.
- Non-resort guests can only purchase Premier Pass 3 days in advance.
This purchasing advantage has made it harder for non-resort guests to secure Premier Pass, particularly at Magic Kingdom, which often sells out first.
What to Expect in the Coming Weeks
- Continued sell-outs are likely as spring break crowds continue to build.
- Expect Magic Kingdom to continue reaching $449 pricing on busier days.
- Other parks may also see more frequent sell-outs as guests shift their focus when Magic Kingdom is unavailable.
