Welcome to planDisney, David!
It looks like you'll be arriving at Walt Disney World Resort in a little over a month –– how exciting! During your stay, you won't want to miss a moment of the
Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary Celebration. With the
Fab 50 Character Collection sculptures,
stunning new nighttime displays, EARidescent snacks, and
exclusive 50th Anniversary merchandise, you'll find magic around every corner. I can't wait for you to experience everything The World's Most Magical Celebration has to offer during your upcoming visit!
When the Walt Disney World Annual Passholder program was relaunched in 2021, it came with the creation of a
special pass tier just for Disney Vacation Club Members –– the Disney Sorcerer Pass. Unfortunately,
sales of most new Annual Passes are paused at this time (currently, the only exception is the Disney Pixie Dust Pass which is only available to Florida Residents). The good news, though, is that while Disney hasn't announced a date yet, Annual Passes are expected to return later this year. Be sure to keep checking the
Walt Disney World Annual Passholder page and
Disney Parks Blog for the latest news about when Annual Passes may be returning.
Don't worry, David –– if you've already purchased Walt Disney World theme parks tickets and Annual Pass sales resume before your visit, you'll have the option to apply the price of your existing ticket towards an upgrade to a Disney Sorcerer Pass. All you need to do is visit a Walt Disney World
Guest Relations location before using the last day of your ticket and a friendly Cast Member will be happy to help you with your upgrade.
Thanks for visiting planDisney, David. If you think of any other planning questions before your visit, please feel free to stop by again –– we're always happy to help!
Have a Magical Day,
Amy
