For the first time this year—and the first time since Lightning Lane Premier Pass became available to all guests—EPCOT's Premier Pass has sold out for February 15, 2025. This marks a notable shift, as EPCOT has previously seen consistent availability, even while Magic Kingdom frequently sold out.
Additionally, Disney's Hollywood Studios has now sold out for February 14, 15, 16, and 17, while Magic Kingdom's Premier Pass has extended its sell-out streak to include February 20.
What's Causing the Increased Sell-Outs?
Several factors are contributing to these growing Premier Pass sell-outs across multiple parks:
- Valentine's Day & Presidents' Day Weekend Crowds – With February 14 (Valentine's Day) and February 17 (Presidents' Day) bringing higher attendance, demand for shorter wait times is increasing.
- Rising Awareness of Premier Pass – Now that all guests (not just resort guests) can purchase Premier Pass, more people are factoring it into their trip planning.
- EPCOT's Attraction Lineup & Lower Price Point – At $149-$249, EPCOT's Premier Pass is cheaper than Magic Kingdom's and provides access to high-demand rides like Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, Remy's Ratatouille Adventure, and Frozen Ever After.
- Hollywood Studios Demand Growing – With Rise of the Resistance, Slinky Dog Dash, and Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway, Hollywood Studios is emerging as the second-most in-demand park for Premier Pass behind Magic Kingdom.
Current Premier Pass Sell-Out Dates by Park
Here's where things stand for the upcoming week:
- Magic Kingdom: February 12-20 (nine consecutive days)
- EPCOT: February 15 (first sell-out in 2025)
- Hollywood Studios: February 14, 15, 16, 17
- Animal Kingdom: Still available for all dates
How This Compares to Past Trends
EPCOT's last Premier Pass sell-out was in late December, 2024—during peak Christmas week crowds. This is the first time it has sold out in 2025 and the first time it has sold out under the new expanded purchasing rules.
- Hollywood Studios sell-outs are becoming more frequent, suggesting it may follow Magic Kingdom in seeing more consistent sell-outs on busy dates.
- Magic Kingdom continues to lead in demand, now selling out for nine straight days, the longest stretch on record.
What This Means for Future Availability
As more parks begin to see Premier Pass sell-outs, guests should expect:
- More frequent EPCOT and Hollywood Studios sell-outs – These parks are now selling out, not just Magic Kingdom.
- Earlier sell-outs for lower-priced days – Guests securing passes in advance means even non-peak dates could become competitive.
- Potential for pricing adjustments – If demand continues at this level, Disney could introduce price increases to manage availability.
