Disney World guests are dealing with higher costs across the resort after a large batch of price increases took effect on October 6, 2026.
This time, the changes aren't limited to theme park tickets or one particular part of a vacation. Disney raised prices on everything from Annual Passes and restaurant meals to merchandise, vacation photos, snacks, and premium experiences.
Some adjustments only add a few cents or dollars. Others increase the bill by $10, $40, or even $120 at once.
Here are seven areas where Disney World guests are now paying more.
Annual Pass Prices Take the Biggest Leap
Annual Passholders were hit with some of the largest increases.
Disney raised the Pixie Dust Pass from $489 to $499. The Pirate Pass climbed from $869 to $909, while the Sorcerer Pass increased from $1,099 to $1,139.
The Incredi-Pass received the biggest jump of all. Its price increased $120, moving from $1,629 to a record $1,749 before tax.
That matters especially for visitors outside Florida because the Incredi-Pass is the only Annual Pass available to most guests who aren't Florida residents or eligible Disney Vacation Club members.
But Annual Passes aren't the only major vacation purchase costing more.
Disney Vacation Photos Now Carry a Higher Price
Guests who want their PhotoPass photos from a single day at Disney World will need to pay an additional $10.
Memory Maker One Day increased from $75 to $85 on October 6.
Disney didn't raise its other primary Memory Maker options during this round. The standard package remains $210, while guests who purchase at least three days in advance can still pay $185.
For visitors only interested in capturing one important day, however, the new price takes effect immediately.
Restaurant Bills Are Growing Too
The increases continue when guests sit down for a meal.
At ‘Ohana, adult breakfast rose from $53 to $58, while children's breakfast increased from $33 to $36. Dinner climbed from $67 to $69 for adults and $44 to $46 for children.
Akershus Royal Banquet Hall breakfast now costs $66 for adults, up from $62, and $42 for children, up from $39.
Hollywood Brown Derby also raised individual menu prices. Its Cobb Salad moved from $30 to $32, while the filet mignon increased from $56 to $59.
For a family ordering several meals, those differences can quickly become more noticeable.
Disney Souvenirs Cost More
The higher prices don't end when guests leave the restaurants.
Most Minnie and Mickey ear headbands increased from $36.99 to $38.99 on October 6.
One documented Spirit Jersey also jumped from $79.99 on October 5 to $84.99 the next day. Magnets and keychains in two pricing tiers received $1 increases as well.
Not every merchandise category changed. MagicBand+, pins, and light-up souvenirs kept their existing prices.
Fantasmic! Dining Packages Receive New Prices
Guests combining a meal with Fantasmic! at Disney's Hollywood Studios will also pay slightly more.
Adult Fantasmic! Dining Package pricing at 50's Prime Time Cafe increased from $60 to $62. Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant raised its price from $59 to $62.
Hollywood Brown Derby increased from $83 to $84, while Hollywood & Vine breakfast rose from $67 to $68 for adults. Lunch and dinner at Hollywood & Vine moved from $82 to $83.
Most children's prices stayed unchanged, although Hollywood & Vine received minor adjustments.
Everyday Park Snacks Become More Expensive
Smaller purchases also saw increases on October 6.
Regular popcorn now costs $6.29 instead of $5.99. Fountain beverages increased from $4.79 to $4.99.
Chicken strips saw larger jumps. A two-piece order went from $8.99 to $9.49, while a four-piece order increased from $10.99 to $11.99.
There are still a few familiar prices. Bottled soda remains $5.50, Mickey pretzels remain $8.49, and Mickey ice cream bars and sandwiches continue to cost $6.49.
Those smaller increases may not seem significant on their own, but buying snacks for several people over multiple days can add up quickly.
Premium Fireworks Experiences Get Pricier
Guests looking for a more exclusive way to watch nighttime spectaculars weren't spared either.
EPCOT's adults-only GEO-82 Fireworks Experience previously carried a flat $179 price. Disney has now introduced date-based pricing ranging from $179 to $194 per person.
The experience includes reserved viewing of Luminous: The Symphony of Us, champagne, desserts, and a tasting tower.
At Magic Kingdom, adult Pre-Party and Post-Party fireworks dessert experiences moved from $99–$109 to $104–$119.
Seats & Sweets increased from $124–$134 to $129–$144 for adults, while children's pricing stayed unchanged.
Disney World Guests May Need to Rework Their Budgets
The biggest takeaway isn't necessarily any single increase. It's how many different parts of a Disney World vacation became more expensive at the same time.
A family might face higher costs when eating breakfast, buying park snacks, shopping for souvenirs, purchasing vacation photos, or opting for a premium experience.
Guests visiting throughout the remainder of 2026 are already paying these new prices.
For anyone heading to Disney World this fall or holiday season, the vacation budget created weeks or months ago may no longer reflect what they'll actually spend once they arrive.
