If you’re a Disney World Annual Passholder, you need to make note of these three days when Magic Kingdom park pass reservations are SOLD OUT.
Disney World Annual Pass
Annual Passholders still need to make park pass reservations in order to visit the Disney World theme parks (with certain exceptions — I’ll detail those in just a second), and those park passes can and do RUN OUT occasionally. With a big weekend coming up for Magic Kingdom, it’s no surprise that three days have completely sold out for that park.
This weekend is the official opening of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom! The new ride (a re-theme of Splash Mountain) opens on June 28th.

Annual Passholders had the opportunity to preview the new ride on select days, but park pass reservations for those preview dates sold out FAST, so many Passholders haven’t gotten to see it yet. It looks like a lot of them have plans to be there on opening day or soon after!
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure
Currently, Annual Passholder park pass reservations are SOLD OUT for Magic Kingdom on June 28th, 29th, and 30th. This is true for all four Annual Pass tiers (though note that the Pixie passes are blocked out on the 29th and 30th anyway).
UPDATE: As of June 27th at 9:30AM EST, Magic Kingdom park passes for Annual Passholders on June 29th and 30th have been RESTOCKED, but the 28th is still sold out. The dates could sell out again, so make sure to get your passes soon!

Right now, all three other parks have park pass reservation availability, so if you’re dying to get into Magic Kingdom on one of those three days, you can make a park pass reservation for EPCOT, Animal Kingdom, or Hollywood Studios, go to that park first, and then immediately hop over to Magic Kingdom. You’ll miss rope drop, but you can still get in!

Note that you can also go to any park after 2PM without a park pass reservation except for Saturdays or Sundays at Magic Kingdom (so that hack would only help if you’re going to go on Friday afternoon).
Magic Kingdom Entrance
As a quick reminder, Annual Passholders DO need a Park Pass Reservation to visit Disney World parks EXCEPT in these situations:
- Good-To-Go Days
- Any day after 2PM, excluding Magic Kingdom on Saturdays and Sundays
- You have a Park Pass and have entered the specific park that you have a reservation for — at this point, you can park hop to any other park at any time of day. (Phrased a different way: even though Annual Passholders can hop to a different park at any time, they MUST enter the park they have a theme Park Pass reservation for FIRST before being able to hop.)
We’ve previewed Tiana’s Bayou Adventure and definitely think this ride deserves all the hype it’s getting. The music is fun, we loved seeing our favorite characters, and the huge drop is still there!

As someone who has been a die hard fan of Disney since before any of you were born, I was honestly hoping for more from Tiana’s ride (and other “upgrades” at the parks). But honestly, the story plot is really thin and has nothing to do with the movie (which I personally was hoping for), the animatronics sensor/timings are really awkward, the ride was down more than it was functioning, and it seems like corners were cut at every turn! The handicapped line was a nightmare!!!! They could’ve used so much more content from the movie for a more comprehensive experience (especially Dr. Faciilier) I will say the colors are great, and the new slide drop is a fun surprise, but that’s all I got. They’ve been slapping mediocre ideas together at every park by cutting corners and skimming money from the projects and expecting us to be excited about it. Whelp…… Disney Magic needs more story, more detail, more depth and more ingenuity! My honest opinion. Here’s hoping they do right by Animal Kingdom!!!!
Disney does not want loyal customers or annual pass holders. Disney is all about money and political nonsense.
