A SeaWorld Orlando Annual Pass is available with the other Florida-based parks in the SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment group, namely Aquatica Orlando, Busch Gardens Tampa Bay, and Adventure Island (seasonal).

If you plan to visit SeaWorld Orlando more than once during the year, an annual pass can be a good option. Unlike a “length of stay” ticket, generally valid for 14 days, a yearly pass, as the name suggests, is valid for 365 days.

Our top tip for saving on SeaWorld Annual Pass Tickets

For the best prices, you will want to compare a few sites. Tickets are available through SeaWorld’s authorized ticket reseller, Undercover Tourist, our partner, and the official SeaWorld Site. If you want a regular single-day ticket, it’s worth comparing the day prices with our partners’ prices. They are often a lot cheaper!

When purchasing an annual pass to more than one Florida park, it is essential to choose the suitable park as your “home” membership park. Some unique benefits only relate to the “home” park, and sometimes, you can only buy the particular combination you require at a specific park.

For the ultimate pass, you might want to consider the Platinum pass, which covers ten of the eleven SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment theme parks in the United States, not just Florida. The only exclusion is Discovery Cove, but you can get discounts as an annual pass member.

Florida residents can also take advantage of EZpay, an interest-free payment plan that spreads the cost of the annual pass over twelve months.

Children under three are admitted for free to SeaWorld Orlando, but children ages three and above must now purchase an adult ticket. There are no longer any child ticket prices at SeaWorld Orlando except for meal deals and a few of the tours.

Four different annual passes are available, ranging from the cheapest Bronze through Silver and Gold to the most expensive Platinum.

The more you pay, the greater the perks, including free parking, a discount on food and gifts, complimentary guest tickets, reduced-price tickets, and many other benefits.

SeaWorld Annual Pass Discount

Sometimes, SeaWorld Orlando offers special deals on annual passes, like giving away a second pass for free.

There are often discounts on all their annual passes as well as discounts on one, two, three, and four park tickets and Fun Cards:
