Hi there, Michelle, and welcome to planDisney!
As a Walt Disney World
Annual Passholder, there are so many cool perks that we get. From collecting those complimentary Annual Passholder magnets (I love the newest Stitch one that’s at EPCOT until June 26) to getting discounts on select food and merchandise, it’s more than worth it to be a part of the Annual Passholder family.
Walt Disney World Annual Passholders do indeed get free standard parking at the theme parks. Woohoo! It’s a huge reason why my family keeps coming back for more and more magic. When you get up to the parking lot attendant, they will simply scan your ticket or
MagicBand+ (and have your photo ID ready just in case they need to confirm who you are). From there, you’re good to go.
Keep in mind that you will need to pay the difference (still a discount!) if you want preferred theme park parking. Also, parking at the Disney Resorts Collection hotels is limited for Guests not staying on property, so if you want to visit, have a dining or experience reservation to be on the safe side. Parking at
Disney Springs, a fun place to shop and eat at the Resort, is free for everyone—Annual Passholder or not.
Michelle, don’t be a stranger to planDisney! If you have any other questions about your current or upcoming visits to The Most Magical Place on Earth,
ask us here and we’ll be more than happy to give you an answer.
Magic always,
LeAndra
