Ticket prices at Walt Disney World will increase, effective Sunday. The hike comes as Disney tries to even out attendance throughout the year so guests arent stuck waiting in line and have a better time. Walt Disney World posted record-breaking attendance in the quarter that ended in December, Disney executives said during an earnings call Tuesday with investors. The cost increase will vary from park to park as well as which day since Disney offers a three-tiered system for peak, regular and value tickets. Annual passes, including those for Florida residents, are also on the rise.
At the gate, a one-day regular Magic Kingdom ticket will cost $119, a $4 increase. A value ticket will cost $109, a $2 increase, while a peak ticket will now cost $129, a $5 increase.

I enjoyed it “back then” ... it was wholesome and exciting when it was being built and for the 20 years after. Then it began to change. I, unfortunately, spent my money for tickets on a bad day ... one of the first “queer weekends” ... we looked around us and we were literally surrounded with guys walking hand-in-hand with guys. Later they “fixed” this by publishing those weekends. But I got caught in one early on and that was the last time we went to Disney. But about that same time when the Mouse came out of the closet, the same thing happened in my “church.” So I don’t go to Disney and I don’t attend the Episcopal Church. There are alternatives to both and life goes on.
