Seaworld fun pass 2016

ORLANDO, Fla. — SeaWorld Orlando has announced new perks for its annual passes.

In addition to discounts on merchandise, access to seasonal events and other benefits, annual passholders (called pass members) will have access to the new Passport to Thrills program as well as new monthly offers.

“Big things are happening at our parks and there has never been a better time to be a SeaWorld Orlando Annual Pass Member,” park president Kyle Miller said in a statement. “Our annual passes give our guests more opportunity to experience all the incredible thrills and exciting events while enjoying the high-quality pass benefits that we continue to offer our Pass Members.”

With Passport to Thrills, SeaWorld will give pass members a chance to be among the first to ride its newest attraction, Ice Breaker, which opens to the public February 2022. Pass members who visit the park at least three times between Sept. 7 and Dec. 31, will be invited to a VIP Ice Breaker preview night next year. The event will also include entertainment and refreshments.

Annual passes include special offers each month. In 2022, some of the offers will include bonus guest tickets, a free Ice Breaker magnet, a ride night in May and more.

SeaWorld also revealed its seasonal event calendar for next year. The lineup includes the return of the Seven Seas Food Festival, the Craft Beer Festival, Electric Ocean and more. But there will also be new festivities added, including a St. Patrick’s Day Celebration in March.

SeaWorld Orlando offers different tiers for its annual passes as well as options to add access to more than one park.
