    I’m a pass holder. Can I buy lightning lane ahead of my visit or only same day?

    Hey there, hi there, Alejandra! Welcome to planDisney. We are so glad you stopped by!

    I am so excited to hear that you are a part of the Magic Key family. I am a Magic Key holder myself and love that I get to experience the magic all year round. Since you are a Magic Key pass holder, you will need to wait until you enter the park for the day to purchase Lightning Lane Multi Pass. The great news is that as a Magic Key holder, you get 25% off your Lightning Lane purchase for yourself when you use your pass for park admission. 

    One thing I like to do before a visit to the parks is check out the Magic Key Portal in the Disneyland app. This will let you know if there are any limited-time offerings or extras for Magic Key holders that you don't want to miss out on. I recently grabbed the Magic Key exclusive Neopolitan Sampler over at the Golden Horseshoe. It's the perfect way to beat the afternoon sun, and it's a great shareable treat too! It is only available with the mobile order feature, so be sure you have your Disneyland app ready to go!

    Alejandra, I hope your upcoming visit is full of magic and Lightning Lane adventures!

While Disneyland is our home away from home, we love trying to make a Walt Disney World Resort vacation happen at least once a year now too. All my friends know I'm the go-to for Disney advice, so I'm here to help you plan and experience the magic on your visit! Learn More About Carrie
