Disneyland has revealed the next iteration of Magic Keys. The Magic Key program replaced the Annual Pass program at Disneyland. For Magic Key holders, the big question has been about when renewals will become available. Disneyland announced that renewals will be available on August 18, 2022. The renewals will begin no sooner than 9:00 AM and a virtual queue system will be used. Moving forward, there will be a 30-day renewal window. For guests with Magic Keys that expired before August 18th, call Disneyland between August 18 and 31 to renew. Disney shared that renewals will receive Magic Key magnet and “bit of a surprise.” At this time, new Magic Key sales are not available.
There are several changes to the program as it enters its second year. First off, there is no longer a Dream Key. Instead, there is now an Inspire Key. Second, all Magic Key levels now have blockout dates. The three lower keys have all seen a $50 price increase. The new Inspire Key is $1,599, this is up $200 from the Believe Key. The monthly payment option will still be offered with 0% APR available for eligible California Residents.

For all Magic Key levels, parking is only available with the Magic Key level perk when the Magic Key is not blocked. All levels of Magic Keys now have blockout dates. The Inspire Key is blocked out from December 21, 2022 through January 1, 2023. As has been the case since the Disneyland Resort reopening, reservations will still be required. The current no-show policy for Magic Keys is still in place as well. Three no-shows in the space of 90 days will mean that a Magic Key holder will not be able to make reservations for 30 days. As has been the case before, Magic Keys will allow for park hopping after 1:00 PM.
