How much is Animal Kingdom for 1 day?

Disney's Animal Kingdom tickets: $109 to $159.



In 2026, a 1-day ticket for Disney’s Animal Kingdom typically ranges from $119 to $184 per adult (ages 10+), depending on the time of year and day of the week. As of late February 2026, mid-week tickets are priced around $172, while peak weekends or holiday periods hit the higher end of the scale. Animal Kingdom remains the most affordable of the four Walt Disney World parks, often priced $10–$25 lower than the Magic Kingdom. For children aged 3–9, the price is slightly lower, ranging from $114 to $179. It is important to note that these 2026 prices do not include the 6.5% sales tax or the $35 standard parking fee. For the best value, 2026 visitors are encouraged to check the "Disney MagicMobile" app for date-specific pricing and to consider the "Park Hopper" add-on if they wish to visit another park after exploring the world of Pandora in the morning.
