Ticket prices start at $24.95 per vehicle on our Value Nights (available on select dates). Regular Nights and upgrades, such as Fast Pass or Double Drive-Thru experiences, may have additional costs. Please refer to our schedule for detailed pricing by date.

While you’ll initially select a date when purchasing your ticket, our tickets are flexible! So if your plans change, you can use your ticket on another night of the season. The only requirement is that it must be used on a night with the same or lower ticket price as your original purchase. For example, if you bought a ticket for one of our value-priced nights, then it can only be used on another similarly priced value night.

You’re free to arrive anytime during our posted operating hours for the night you attend. For the latest schedule, check our website, where dates and hours are always kept up to date.
