Walt Disney World raised a long list of prices in the first half of October 2026, at the start of Disney’s financial year. The changes cover food and drink in the parks and hotels, character meals, tours, late-2027 park tickets and Lightning Lane Single Pass. All prices below are in US dollars and were correct in October 2026.
Food and drink
Quick-service prices went up on 6 October. Most increases on individual items are small, between about 20 cents and $1.20. A coffee, a hot tea and a regular fountain drink now each cost $4.99. Some mixed drinks rose by 50 cents. Many items didn’t change.
Character meals, buffets and set-price restaurants followed, with increases of $1 to $5 a person at 15 restaurants across the four parks and six Disney hotels. Lunch or dinner at Cinderella’s Royal Table in Magic Kingdom is now $92 for adults and $57 for children.
