Walt Disney World Resort’s pricey Lightning Lane Premier Pass has sold out for six days between Christmas and New Year’s Eve at Magic Kingdom Park. This premium combination of the Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Single Pass offerings debuted in October and sold out for the first time on November 25, 2024.

Lightning Lane Premier Pass grants guests one-time access to every attraction with a Lightning Lane queue at Magic Kingdom Park, EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park–including Single Pass attractions like Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, TRON Lightcycle / Run, and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. Unlike Multi Pass, Premier Pass doesn’t require guests to schedule return times, allowing families to ride at their leisure.

Lightning Lane Premier Pass is available up to 21 days in advance to those staying at Disney Resort hotels–the service is not available to off-site guests at this time. The price varies based on demand and theme park, ranging from $329 to $449 at Magic Kingdom Park. It also includes digital downloads of select attraction photos and unlocks Disney PhotoPass Lenses.

As of December 22, 2024, Lightning Lane Premier Pass at Magic Kingdom Park is sold out on December 25, December 27, December 28, December 29, December 30, and December 31.
