The happiest place on earth is about to get a little more expensive. Effective last Sunday, Walt Disney Co. raised the price of admission to all their theme parks around the world, including here in the United States.
A one-day ticket for either Disneyland or California Adventure in Anaheim, California, is now $99 for anyone 10 or older, the company said. That's up from $96.
Single-day tickets for the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, are now $105, up from $99.
Disney is still seeing strong attendance at its resorts. "For the quarter ended Dec. 27, revenue for the segment rose 9 percent to $3.9 billion, as attendance at the company's California and Florida parks climbed 7 percent, with Walt Disney World and the Disneyland Resort each setting all-time quarterly attendance records."
Even the measles outbreak hasn't put a dent in attendance.
Other price changes were also scheduled to take effect on Sunday:
Among other price changes that took effect Sunday: A one-day ticket to Epcot, Disney's Hollywood Studios and Disney's Animal Kingdom now is $97, up from $94.
Disney also bumped up ticket prices for children ages 3 to 9.
Kids in that age bracket will be charged $93 for a single-day ticket at Disneyland. That's up from $90. For the Magic Kingdom, that ticket is now $99, up from $93. For the other theme parks it's now $91, up from $88.
