NEWS: Disney World’s 0+ Lightning Lane Is SOLD OUT Across All 4 Parks

Get ready for a PACKED Disney World this weekend!

Magic Kingdom

It’s a holiday weekend with Columbus Day falling on Monday, October 12th, which means the parks are about to get busy. Holiday weekends are normally much busier at each of the four parks already, but we didn’t think it was going to be “Lightning Lane Premier Passes sold out” busy!

If you were planning on coming to Disney World this weekend, be aware that Lightning Lane Premier Pass is now sold out at all four Disney World parks! The passes are sold out for both Saturday, October 10th and Sunday, October 11th. First, Magic Kingdom and Disney’s Hollywood Studios sold out for the weekend, then EPCOT and Disney’s Animal Kingdom followed after them.

EPCOT

When looking at the calendar for purchasing Lightning Lane Premier Pass, this is the breakdown for dates that have no Premier Pass available for each park:

  • Magic Kingdom: Sold out October 8th through October 11th.
  • Hollywood Studios: Sold out October 8th through October 12th.
  • EPCOT: Sold out October 9th through October 12th.
  • Animal Kingdom: Sold out October 10th through October 12th.

Animal Kingdom

Disney World’s Lightning Lanes provide access to “Lightning Lanes” for rides so guests can bypass Standby lines for select attractions through an extra purchase made on the My Disney Experience app. Lightning Lane Premier Pass is a popular buy when the park is busier because it lets guests maximize their time and see as many attractions as possible in a day.

Lightning Lane Premier Pass gives you one-time entry to EVERY Lightning Lane in a given park for one price. So, it really is the pass that completely maximizes your time. It eliminates the need to monitor Lightning Lane availability and make new Lightning Lane reservations throughout the day, and grants the ability to simply show up at an attraction and enter the Lightning Lane at ANY time.
