The Disneyland Resort has announced that it is discontinuing the Enchant Key. In its place will be the new Explore Key. This new Magic Key will be available, along with the Imagine Key, starting on January 13, 2026, no earlier than 9:00 AM PT. The passes will join the Inspire and Believe passes, which are currently available for purchase on the Disneyland website.
About the Explore Key
The Explore Key will replace the Enchant Key. Because of this, the Enchant Key will not be available for sale or renewal moving forward. Current Enchant Key holders will be able to continue to use their pass until its expiration date.
The new Explore Key will allow guests to experience the magic of every season. It will have benefits that are similar to the Enchant Key. This new key will also have weekdays available in June and July. This is billed as being perfect for families who want to be able to enjoy the parks during summer vacation.
Magic Key Perks
Magic Key passes can deliver value in as few as four visits to the Happiest Place on Earth. Some of the perks that are included with a Magic Key are:
- Park Hopper admission
- Parking Discounts
- Merchandise Discounts
- Dining Discounts
- Lightning Lane Multi Pass Discounts
- Exclusive Merchandise
- Magic Key Gifts (on occasion)
Magic Key holders will also be able to experience the exciting offerings that were announced by the Disneyland Resort for 2026. This can allow Magic Key holders to plan trips around festivals like Lunar New Year, Disney California Adventure Food & Wine Festival, Holidays at the Disneyland Resort, or Halloween Time. They can also plan on visiting when Bluey and her sister Bingo arrive at the Fantasyland Theatre or when the Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run debuts a new mission that is connected with The Mandalorian and Grogu.
For California residents, there is the option to pay for the pass over the course of 12 months with 0% APR, with the new, lower down payment of $99. More information about availability, calendar, and prices for Magic Keys can be found at Disneyland.com/MagicKey.
