How much do 14-Day Magic Tickets cost a UK family of four? (2027)

How much does it cost to take a child to Disney World?

The cost of taking a child to Disney World is least when the child is under 3 years old. From the perspective of buying UK Magic Tickets there are two specific age milestones that make a difference to the price you pay:

1. Age 3: once a child is 3 years old, they need a child’s ticket to go to Disney World

2. Age 10: once a child turns 10 they are no longer classed as a child at Disney World and they need an adult’s Magic Ticket.

At ages 3 and 10 the price of your family holiday increases. A family travelling with a child aged two and under will not pay for a Magic Ticket. A family travelling with a child aged 3-9 will pay child’s Magic Ticket prices. Once your child is 10, you pay adult prices, so age doesn’t impact the cost of your Magic Tickets after this birthday.

What is the cheapest age to take your child to Disney World from the UK?
