Disney’s financial rollercoaster: Stock prices fall while Disneyland tickets soar

Regular visitors to Walt Disney World and Disneyland may soon find that their trips are costing more as the theme park chain implemented targeted price rises.

It comes after a substantial stock price drop in the wake of ABC’s decision to suspend Jimmy Kimmel for comments made about Charlie Kirk. Disney, the parent company of ABC, saw stock prices fall by 7% as a reaction to the decision.

Disney has announced that starting prices at both Walt Disney World and Disneyland will be remaining flat through October 2026, good news for potential visitors. However there will be price adjustments made for some non-peak dates, along with some of the busiest days of the 2026 holiday season.

“Disney Parks offer a full day of experiences each day, with ticket, hotel, and dining options designed to suit a wide range of needs and budgets for all who visit,” a Disney spokesperson explained. “Our commitment to creating magical experiences for everyone remains at the heart of what we do – and that will never change.”

Here’s a look at the typical prices across the four Disney World parks across the next one-year cycle:

Despite some changes for next year, the bottom-rung prices will remain unchanged. The cheapest one-day, one-park tickets are set at $104, as they have been since 2019. You can find those ticketing options on the Disneyland website.

The price rises across other ticketing bands will likely help to fund a raft of new investments across the parks. Disneyland and Disney World are both introducing new attractions in the coming years, such as an Avatar-inspired area at Disney California Adventure and a new Villains land at Magic Kingdom. In the very near future, a new 4D show called “Zootopia: Better Zoogether” will open at Animal Kingdom on November 7.
