News Summary
Disneyland will restart sales of its premium Magic Key tiers, Inspire and Believe, on November 4, 2025. Following a pause since July 2025, these sales are highly anticipated due to an 8.6% price increase. Potential buyers will need to access a virtual waiting room ahead of the 9 a.m. sales start and are advised to monitor their email for queue notifications. The new prices for Magic Key options will be effective from October 2025, and current passholders can renew their memberships prior to expiration.
Anaheim, California – Disneyland will resume sales of the two most expensive Magic Key tiers, the Inspire and Believe Keys, on November 4, 2025, starting no earlier than 9 a.m. Pacific Time. This follows a pause in sales that began in July 2025, leaving enthusiasts of the annual passholder program eager for the opportunity to secure these popular options, especially after prices were recently raised by as much as 8.6%.
Sales will be limited and are expected to sell out quickly, according to the Disneyland Magic Key Buying Guide. Prospective passholders will need to navigate a virtual waiting room that opens at 8:45 a.m. on the sales day. Once inside the queue, participants will have a 10-minute window to complete their purchase. Those who fail to finalize their orders within this timeframe will need to start from the back of the line.
In addition to the two premium tiers, Disneyland has already been selling the less expensive Imagine and Enchant Keys since August 2025. For potential buyers, it is recommended to check spam folders for email confirmations regarding queue positions, as timely notifications may be crucial for securing their passes. Users should also be aware that attempts to open multiple tabs or refresh the sales page could lead to being removed from the waiting room.
The cost for the new Magic Key prices effective October 2025 is as follows: Inspire Key at $1,749, Believe Key at $1,374, Enchant Key at $974, and Imagine Key (exclusively for Southern California residents) at $599. Each level of membership includes various benefits such as parking discounts, Photopass digital downloads, and exclusive merchandise opportunities.
This resumption of Magic Key sales comes amid an overall increase in ticket prices at Disneyland for day and multi-day passes. Observers have noted that following the end of the original annual passholder program during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Magic Key system was introduced in 2021, which has since experienced sporadic sales activities.
For those looking for additional visiting options, a limited-time California Resident 3-Day Park Hopper Ticket will be offered for $249 starting December 3, 2025. This ticket allows California residents to redeem visits on any three eligible days between January 1, 2026, and May 21, 2026, subject to park reservation availability.
Current Magic Key holders have the opportunity to renew their passes within a month prior to expiration, ensuring continued access to the park and its benefits as prices rise and demand increases.
As Disneyland prepares for this new round of Magic Key sales, fans are urged to mark their calendars and prepare for what is likely to be a competitive and quick sales process.
