SeaWorld Orlando tickets are available in several different forms. From the 1 day ticket to SeaWorld Orlando to multi-park tickets linking both Aquatica Orlando, Busch Gardens Tampa Bay and Adventure Island.
If you do not wish to drive between parks on a multi-park ticket, there is a free shuttle service between SeaWorld in Orlando and Busch Gardens in Tampa.
If you are a Florida resident, you can often get discounts and special privileges with a Florida residents ticket or you can buy an annual pass either just for SeaWorld Orlando or in combination with other parks.
Head over to our tickets site to save money on advance tickets to SeaWorld. We have some of the best discounts available today. Beat the gate prices and reduce your holiday costs.
Good To Know Info About SeaWorld
To make it easier to budget your food bills, there is an “all day” meal deal as well as a character meal.
SeaWorld also offers a number of special “up-close” and “behind-the-scenes” tours and animal interaction packages for those who want to find out a bit more about the various animals and attractions. Note that some of the tours have minimum age restrictions.
If you don’t like the idea of waiting to get onto some of the more popular rides then like Disney and Universal Studios, SeaWorld Orlando also has a “front-of-line” pass called Quick Queue. Reserve your seats at all the main shows with SeaWorld’s new Signature Reserved Seating upgrade.
For admission to SeaWorld Orlando, children under 3 are admitted for free but children from the ages of 3 and above must now purchase an adult ticket.
There are no longer any child ticket prices at SeaWorld Orlando with the exception of meal deals and a few of the tours.
The SeaWorld Quick Queue Unlimited is like the old Disney FASTPASS or Universal Express ticket. It gives you “front of line” access to a number of the main rides at SeaWorld like Manta and Kraken. The pass is good for any number of rides all day.
Offers And Deals For SeaWorld Orlando Tickets
SeaWorld Orlando often runs special offer deals like discounting the price of one-day or multi-park combined tickets with the Aquatica Orlando, Busch Gardens Tampa Bay and Adventure Island.
Our partner, Orlando Vacation is often cheaper for ticket prices per day than the official SeaWorld site. You should definitely go over and check there prices before making any final purchases. Ticket price comparisons are key to saving overall on your Orlando holiday.
If you plan to visit any of SeaWorld Orlando, Aquatica Orlando, Busch Gardens Tampa Bay and Adventure Island, especially for multiple days then the four-park ticket is good value as it gives you unlimited admissions for 14 consecutive days and free general parking each time you visit.
Late in the year they often promote a deal whereby you can buy next year’s Fun Card but start using it straight away so you get something like 15 months of access for the price of 12.
SeaWorld Orlando Preschool & Teacher Cards
Florida residents with kids aged 5 and under can register for a Preschool card which gives each child free admission to both SeaWorld and Aquatica Orlando for a whole year; i.e. until December 31, 2024.
You must register online for the 2024 Preschool Card by February, 2024, then visit either park by February 28, 2024 to activate it. The child must be 5 or younger at the time of activation.
Normally any child aged 3 or above must buy a guest ticket to enter any of the SeaWorld family of parks.
Florida-certified K-12 grade school teachers can also apply for a SeaWorld Florida Teacher Card which gives unlimited free admission to SeaWorld until September, 2024.
Specific Day Reservations
At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, whilst capacity was limited, you could not get into the SeaWorld Orlando park without a specific date reservation, even if you had a multi-day ticket. Therefore you had to make an online reservation for each day you wished to visit.
SeaWorld does sometimes sell certain date-specific tickets at a discount but in the main, this is no longer a requirement.
All Day Dining and Meal Deals
An All-Day Dining Deal can be purchased as an optional extra either separately or as part of the admission ticket. Sometimes SeaWorld Orlando bundle a special complimentary meal deal with their one, two and three park tickets.
The all-day-dining deal gives you up to one select entrée, one side item or dessert and one non-alcoholic drink each time you pass through the line at select restaurants. Children (ages 3–9) can redeem kids’ meals. You are allowed a maximum of one visit per hour and no sharing or takeout.
Items on the All-Day Dining Deal are marked with coloured dots.
The complimentary meal deal gives you one select entrée with an accompanying side and a non-alcoholic drink per day.
If you are buying a multi-park ticket with a dining deal or all-day dining then note that there are some restrictions on where you can eat.
The two-park and three-park all-day-dining deals are not valid at Sharks Underwater Grill, Dine with Orcas and the Flamecraft Bar at SeaWorld, Serengeti Overlook™ Restaurant at Busch Gardens or special events like the SeaWorld Seven Seas Festival or Busch Gardens Food and Wine Festival.
The two-park and three-park meal deals are not valid at Sharks Underwater Grill or Dine with Orcas at SeaWorld, Serengeti Overlook™ Restaurant at Busch Gardens, or special events like the SeaWorld Seven Seas Festival or Busch Gardens Food and Wine Festival.
SeaWorld Orlando Quick Queue Front-Of-Line Upgrade
Whilst some parks have temporarily paused their front-of-line passes, at SeaWorld Orlando you can still buy a range of Quick Queue upgrades.
The SeaWorld Orlando Quick Queue is like the Disney FASTPASS or Universal Express ticket in that it gives you “front of line” access to a number of the main rides at SeaWorld Orlando like Mako, Manta, Kraken, Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin, Infinity Falls, Journey to Atlantis and Wild Arctic.
The Quick Queue Pass comes in three types:
- Quick Queue — the standard cheaper pass is good for only one ride on each participating attraction – CURRENTLY PAUSED
- Quick Queue Unlimited — gives you as many “front-of-line” rides as you want all day
- Year-Round Quick Queue — for the ultimate theme park junkie, a whole year of unlimited “front-of-line” access
The complimentary daily round-trip Busch Gardens/SeaWorld Shuttle Express service from Orlando to Tampa each day has been paused. Buses depart Orlando in the morning and returned from Tampa in the evening (they do not operate in the other direction; i.e. Tampa to Orlando in the morning). Reservations are recommended by calling 1–800–221–1339 but this service has been temporarily suspended.
