Lightning Lane Premier Pass Sells Out for Epcot and Magic Kingdom Ahead of Christmas Week

Lightning Lane Premier Pass Sells Out for the Holidays at Walt Disney World

The holiday rush has hit Walt Disney World, and the highly coveted Lightning Lane Premier Pass is officially sold out for several peak days. With crowds surging as Christmas approaches, this one-time-entry pass for all Lightning Lane attractions in a single park has proven to be a must-have for many guests—so much so that it’s now unavailable for key dates at Magic Kingdom and EPCOT.

Premier Pass Sell-Out Details

For December 21, the start of Christmas week, both Magic Kingdom and EPCOT Premier Passes are completely sold out:

• Magic Kingdom: Sold out at $419 per pass.
• EPCOT: Sold out at $149 per pass.

The frenzy doesn’t stop there. Magic Kingdom Premier Passes are also sold out for December 27 and 28, despite prices climbing to a staggering $449 per pass. With holiday crowds reaching peak levels, securing a Premier Pass has become nearly as challenging as finding the perfect viewing spot for the fireworks.

Why Are They Selling Out?

The Lightning Lane Premier Pass’s ability to bypass lines for all Lightning Lane attractions in a single park makes it an attractive option, especially during the busiest time of the year. As holiday crowds flood the parks, the convenience and time savings offered by the Premier Pass have made it a hot commodity.

What to Do If You Missed Out

If you weren’t able to snag a Premier Pass, don’t worry—there are still ways to make the most of your holiday visit:

• Use the standard Genie+ and Individual Lightning Lane options to save time in line.
• Arrive early for rope drop or stay late for shorter wait times during evening hours.
• Take advantage of Early Entry and Extended Evening Hours if you’re staying at a Disney Resort or eligible hotel.

The sell-outs underscore how popular the Lightning Lane Premier Pass has become, particularly for Magic Kingdom and EPCOT during high-demand dates. If you’re planning a future visit, booking as soon as the passes become available is essential—these golden tickets are going faster than you can say, “Happy holidays!”

While the Lightning Lane Premier Pass is off the table for some holiday travelers, with a little planning and strategy, there’s still plenty of Disney magic to enjoy this festive season.
