Dutch Wonderland Tickets: What to Check Before You Buy

You can buy single-day tickets online or at the gate. Admission options include dated tickets, Any Day admission, military admission, first responder admission and season passes. Compare the options before choosing.

For a broader visit plan, including what the park offers, read what to know before visiting Dutch Wonderland.

Choose a ticket based on the admission type you need and the date you plan to go. Dated tickets are tied to the date printed on them; Any Day admission and season passes are also available.

Tickets are non-refundable, non-transferable and will not be exchanged. They allow entry only during the park’s operating hours, and those hours may change without notice. Check the park’s calendar before settling on a date; how Dutch Wonderland’s hours and seasons work can help you plan around its operating pattern.

Season passes are another option, with benefits that can depend on pass level. Compare the current pass terms with the dates you expect to visit before buying.

Before paying, confirm the ticket date, admission category and terms, then make sure the park is scheduled to operate that day. Admission is tied to the printed date, and operating hours may change without notice.

If rain affects your in-park visit, go to the Guest Experience office before leaving to receive a free ticket to return another day. This is a return ticket under the Rainy Day Guarantee, not a refund or an exchange for the original admission.

Tickets can be purchased online or at the gate. For current ticket availability and operating details, check the official site before you go.

Children age 2 and under enter free. Children under 13 may not be at the park without adult supervision, and they may not walk around without supervision by a guardian older than 16.

Online group tickets have a 10-person minimum. Groups of 100 or more can contact the park to book. Group tickets must be used on the date selected at purchase, cannot be resold, and are issued as print-at-home tickets; you can also show them on a phone or another smart device.

Dutch Wonderland is about 0.3 miles, or a 12-minute walk, from Dutch Wonderland Inn rooms near the park. General parking costs $25 per day; Gold and Platinum Season Passholders, tour buses and school buses receive free general parking. Preferred parking costs $30 per day, is purchased at on-site booths, and is closest to the entrance.

Pack within the park’s rules: each person may bring one bag no larger than 15 × 15 × 15 inches, measured by maximum seam dimensions. Diaper and medical bags are exceptions. Each person may also bring one small snack and one small non-alcoholic beverage; baby food and medically necessary food are allowed too.

Dutch Wonderland is cashless. Cash-to-card machines are available in Castle Gift Shop and Merlin’s Marketplace. If you leave and plan to return the same day, get your hand stamped at the exit; the stamp is valid only that day.
