Offering 350 days per year access to the park Magic Plus Disneyland Paris annual pass is one of the best choices from those planning to visit Disneyland more than once in a year.
At a cost of 299 euros for an adult, this pass might look expensive but once you see what it offers you might change your mind.
When doing your calculations bear in mind that a 3 days pass for an adult costs about 200 euros and you don’t have anything included in this price, except for the entrance to the park.
Magic Plus annual pass comes with lots of discounts and special prices, so it might be more convenient for you to buy such a pass at least for one member from your family.
Now let me tell you a few words about this pass and which are the pluses and minuses of it.
Blockout dates
As almost all the annual passes from Disneyland Paris, Magic Plus Disney parks pass also has some blockout dates.
The good news is that there are only a few days all over the year:
- January- 1st, 2nd
- October- 30th and 31st
- December- from 25th to 31st
The blockout dates are subject to change so my advice is to check them before planning your trip to Disneyland Paris.
These blockout dates I would count them as a minus for this annual pass and for those interested in a full access annual pass I recommend Infinity pass (449 euros).
Discounts offered by Magic Plus Disneyland Paris annual pass
Besides the little inconvenience caused by the blockout dates, Magic Plus is a very attractive annual pass which offers many discounts and special rates to Disneyland facilities.
Disneyland restaurants
Once you get the Magic Plus pass, you automatically get 10% off to food bought from Disneyland restaurants.
And it matters as food in Disneyland is quite expensive and not very tasty even though you are in France, a country famous for its cuisine and wines.
The good news is that the entire family and even your friends who come with you can benefit from the discount.
The pass holder can pay the entire bill with the Magic Plus card, the only condition is to say from the beginning that you have the card.
Disneyland shops
Not just kids, but also adults would like to buy a souvenir from Disneyland Paris, but as you might expect the prices are pretty high.
But with Magic Plus Disneyland Paris annual pass you will get a 10% discount for everything you want to buy from the shops but you have to say from the beginning that you have the annual pass.
Once the receipt is printed, no discounts can be applied so be careful and mention even from the beginning that you have the annual pass.
Buffalo Bill’s Wild West show
Magic Plus Disneyland Paris annual park ticket gives you a 20% discount to the famous Wild West show, a show with Mickey and friends which re-enact fabled moments from the frontier through stunning shootouts and sensational stunts.
It is a very popular show so we strongly advise you to book your tickets in advance to guarantee your seat.
The simple fact that you have such a pass does not entitle you to get a ticket to this show; it only gives you the discount, not the guarantee of finding a free place.
Disneyland Paris Castle Sleeping Beauty
Special prices with Magic Plus
Annual pass holders are entitled to buy 1-day tickets at the entrance of Walt Disney Studios Park and Disney Village at special prices.
You will get a 20% off for a maximum of 5 tickets per day for each Magic Pluss pass holder who want to invite his friends and family to visit the park.
Stay safe while you travel
- medical safety abroad
- medical assistance including COVID-19
- emergency medical evacuation
- trip interruption -up to $5.000
- travel delay - up to $100/day
Another facility you have because you are a Magic Plus pass holder is the special price for the Annual Photopass.
This service can be bought by you at the incredible price of 59 euros which is more than reasonable comparing with full price.
Besides these discounts you also get access and have included in your ticket:
- Exclusive AP events
- Family discount
- Extra magic time
- Annual parking pass
- Free soft drink
- Storage place
- Fast pass
- Parking hopping
- VIP reserved entrance
From all these facilities one is the best and here I am talking about Extra Magic Time.
This service is available only for Magic Plus and Infinity pass holders and cannot be bought under any other circumstances.
You are entitled to 2 hours entry to the park before normal public opening time, which means that you can have the park almost entirely for yourself.
Visiting Disneyland Paris on your own, without all the crowds is a unique experience and a great opportunity to meet Disney characters and take photos with them.
Generally, during this period you will find around 15 to 20 attractions open in Disneyland Park and Studios and you will have the most famous Disney characters available for meeting opportunities.
You also get special prices for Disney hotels, but even with discounts the prices are still high and the services you receive are average.
More than that, the discounted value applies only to the room rate and not the whole services and facilities offered by Disney hotels.
I personally chose to stay in a different place not into a Disneyland hotel as I did not like the reviews from the internet and the prices looked too high for what I got.
Radisson Blu Hotel Paris Marme La Vallee was a smart choice as it offers a free shuttle to Disneyland park and the services were really great, not to mention that I have paid less than in a Disneyland hotel.
Conclusion
Magic Plus Disneyland Paris annual pass is worth buying if you are a family with at least 3 members and you plan your trip when Magic Flex Disneyland annual pass has blockout dates.
The discounts received for food and shop justify the acquisition of at least one Magic Plus pass for your family, not to mention about the other facilities you get once you buy this ticket, like: discounted prices for 1-day ticket, storage space and parking for free.
