Dorney Park's Season Pass: Everything You Need to Know

Season Passes are some of the most popular passes at Dorney Park.

In this guide, we'll go over what a Dorney Park Season Pass is, the differences between the various season passes, what perks they offer, how you can pay for it, and even the upgrades that you can make.

WHAT IS A DORNEY PARK SEASON PASS?

A Season Pass allows a pass holder to visit Dorney Park an unlimited number of times throughout the 'season' in a year, on all days that are open to the public.

These passes offer benefits including unlimited visits to Dorney Park, free parking, Bring a Friend discount tickets, and access to special events.

You'll notice that it is called a 'Season Pass' rather than an 'Annual Pass' and that's because Dorney Park is not open year-round.

This year Dorney Park is open from May through the end of October.

TYPES OF PASSES & BENEFITS

There are five types of Season Passes at Dorney Park:

  1. Silver Pass (new)
  2. Gold Pass
  3. Platinum Pass

Pass Differences

The Silver Pass is designed for visitors who want to visit Dorney Park during most days of the week (not including Saturday), as this pass has blockout dates.

The Gold Pass allows you access to Dorney Park every day of the season, including Saturday, and also comes with 2 Pre-K passes.

The Platinum Pass offers everything that the Gold Pass does but also allows you access to ALL Cedar Fair parks for the season.

Pricing-wise, the Platinum Pass is the most expensive.

1. Silver Pass (New)

PAYMENT PLAN

Dorney Park allows visitors to pay for their Season Pass, spread out over months.

This allows you to have the flexibility to split up your payment over several months, rather than paying it all at once.

You'll have an initial payment, and for the next 4 consecutive months, you'll pay a fixed amount every month.

How it Works

  1. Select which season pass you want to purchase
  2. Input your billing information
  3. Upload a picture of yourself for your season pass or opt to take a picture at the park
  4. Check out

HOW TO GET MY SEASON PASS

You can purchase your season pass directly from the Dorney Park site.

SEASON PASS UPGRADES

During checkout, you will be given the option to upgrade your pass with a variety of options (that will also last for the entire season) including:

  • All Season Dining
  • All Season Pass Drink Plan
  • All Season Drink Bottle
  • All Season FunPix

WHEN SHOULD I GET A SEASON PASS?

If you're planning on visiting the park at least 2 times in a season, a season pass may be a good option for you.

You'll receive countless perks, and save plenty of money along the way.

Simply not needing to pay for parking on every visit quickly adds up.

WHEN SHOULD I NOT GET A SEASON PASS?

If you're only planning on visiting the park once for the entire season, it most likely will not be worth the investment.

Season Passes normally make sense for guests that will visit the park at least twice in a season.
