UPDATE March 8 – Disneyland Magic Key passes went back on sale on Tuesday March 5 and it appears that currently the following passes are still available to purchase online; Believe Key, Enchant Key, Inspire Key. This means that the popular Imagine Key which can be purchased by Southern California Residents living in zip codes 90000 to 93599 is currently sold out.
The virtual queue can now be accessed very quickly using the following link , https://disneyland.disney.go.com/passes/. Once you have joined the virtual queue, Disney will alert you when it is your turn by sending you an email notification and you will then have 10 minutes from the time it is sent to click on the link and start the purchasing process. If you fail to do this you will have to rejoin the queue!
The price for each of the Disneyland Magic Key passes has increased in 2024. Here are the current prices you should expect to pay:
- Inspire Key – $1649 (up from $1599 in 2023)
- Believe Key – $1249 (up from $1099 in 2023)
- Enchant Key – $849 (up from $699 in 2023)
- Imagine Key – $499 (up from $449 in 2023, only available for Southern California Residents living in zip codes 90000 to 93599)
As you can see the largest price increases have been made to the Believe and Enchant key both rising by $150 with the most and least expensive Inspire and Imagine Keys only seeing a $50 increase.
We expect there to be further opportunities to purchase Disneyland Magic Key Passes in 2024 and we will keep you posted on updates when they are announced.
March 5 – All tiers of Disneyland Magic Key passes go on sale today (March 5) no earlier than 9:00AM PST. This is the second round of sales so far in 2024 with the first being at the beginning of January.
January 5, 2024 – As the new year begins, Disneyland resort fans will have the opportunity to purchase all tiers of Magic Key passes beginning January 10, no earlier than 9:00AM PST.
As in previous sales periods, we expect there to be a finite amount of each pass available and assume that they will sell out quickly. If you are interested in purchasing a Magic Key pass we advise you do so as close to 9:00AM PST on January 10 as possible to avoid disappointment.
For further details and current prices, visit the official Disneyland website, here.
April 15, 2023 – After just four days since the Disneyland Magic Key Passes went back on sale, only the Inspire Magic Key is still available to purchase. This means that all sales for the Believe, Enchant and now Imagine Magic Keys have now been halted.
All tiers are still available for renewal. We are currently unsure when the Disneyland Magic Keys will go back on sale but we will keep you updated here at Theme Park Tourist.
April 11, 2023 10:00PM PT – Here is an update on the current Disneyland Magic Key Passes still available. The website now says:
“Still available to purchase: Imagine Key, Inspire Key. Believe Key, Enchant Key are available for renewal only.
If you are a California Resident and would like to purchase a pass with the monthly payment option, please sign in to your Disney account before adding the pass to your cart. The monthly payment option will not appear unless you are signed in.”
We knew the Believe and Enchant passes would go incredibly quickly. We are unsure if Disney will release any more of these tiers for purchase and will keep you updated on this.
April 11 9:17AM PT – When going to the official Disneyland website Magic Key purchase page, the website now reads:
“You’re in the Queue to Purchase Magic Key Passes
Please note that, due to high demand, Magic Key pass availability is limited and being in the queue does not guarantee the ability to purchase any Magic Key pass.
Note: New pass sales will be paused each night at 10:00 PM Pacific Time. Guests will remain in the queue overnight, as long as they remain connected to the network and keep their browser window open. Pass sales will resume no earlier than 9:00 AM Pacific Time, the following day.
If any passes are still available when it’s your turn, you’ll have 10 minutes to enter the site. Entering the site does not guarantee the ability to purchase any Magic Key pass.

When you do get in you have 10 minutes to enter the site so be sure to keep a close eye on the website so as not not miss your opportunity. It actually took 2.5hr to get to the purchase page at this point.
Starting today, April 11, all four Disneyland Resort Magic Key pass types will be available for purchase from 9:00AM PT. This will come as great news for those Disney fans who weren’t able to purchase one back in January. We are currently unsure how many passes will be available so if you are hoping to purchase one then we advise you do so as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.
It is assumed that the current prices for each tier will stand the same. These are listed at:
- Inspire Key – $1599

Back in November 2022, Disneyland Magic Key Annual Passes went back on sale having been unavailable for a number of months. New sales were then quickly halted again after only a few days with the reason being given to “preserve the experience for passholders” which meant that the maximum number of available passes had already been sold.
The on January 17, Disneyland Magic Key Annual Passes once again went back on sale with numbers being monitored through the use of a virtual queue. While this virtual queue was later removed by the end of January three out of the four tiers were sold out leaving the Inspire Key as the only one available to purchase and the Believe Magic Key only available for renewal.
We are unsure of how much longer the Inspire Disneyland Magic Key Annual Passes will continue to be on sale for so if you are interested in purchasing one we advise you to do it as soon as possible.
Renewals will continue for each tier of pass for current passholders (within renewal window up to 30 days before pass expiration).
Back in August 2022, we heard the news that the Dream Key which was the most expensive of the four tiers has been replaced by the Inspire Key. We assume this is because of the continuing court case and controversy surrounding it.
For further information regarding Disneyland Magic Keys and to purchase, visit the official website.
The news that Disneyland Magic Keys are available to purchase will be very welcome for many Disneyland fans. For those of you who have been waiting a very long time to get your hands on a Walt Disney World Annual Pass, you will be able to do so beginning April 20! We will keep you posted on any further announcements here at Theme Park Tourist.
