Being a Disney World Annual Passholder comes with its share of perks. Besides getting you into the theme parks for the length of the pass, you can also get discounts on food and merchandise, special lounges in the parks, and even free stuff.
Disney World Annual Pass
Every year, Disney World hosts V.I.Passholder Days, which usually brings even bigger discounts, freebies, and more to Passholders, but this year, one V.I.Passholder Days perk has us booking dining reservations ASAP. For a select time, Annual Passholders will be able to get 40% off select Disney World restaurants! No, REALLY! Okay, we’ve got details plus MORE information about this year’s V.I.Passholder Days.
This year, V.I.Passholder Days will kick off on May 14th and run through July 31st. One of the biggest perks Passholders will get during this time is 40% off dining at select Disney World restaurants. You can save 40% off the following table service restaurants (yes, this includes character dining!) from Monday to Thursday from May 14th through June 30th:
- Boatwright’s Dining Hall at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort — Riverside
- Cape May Cafe (dinner only) at Disney’s Beach Club Resort
- Hollywood & Vine at Disney’s Hollywood Studios

Now for the small print: the discount is only valid Monday through Thursday during the select dates indicated. Discounts only apply to the regular price and do not include alcoholic beverages, tax, and tips. Discounts are only valid for Annual Passholders and up to three guests.
That’s not all, though. From May 13th through July 13th, Annual Passholders can enjoy a special Passholder-exclusive lounge every day from 11 AM to 7 PM at Restaurant Marrakesh in the Morocco Pavilion in EPCOT. This lounge will give you a chance to chill out (literally) with a/c while you enjoy complimentary snacks and drinks. Don’t forget to pick up your complimentary Passholder button, too!

I’m guessing that with this 40% offer on select restaurants that the normal 20% off that has typically been offered will not be this year?
I just made a reservation for a Thursday night at Cape May Cafe in June. I haven’t been there in 20-ish years. I hope it’s as good as I remember!
So question, do annual pass holders get discounts on other Walt Disney world tickets and the dining plan?
Hi Gina. No, Walt Disney World Annual Passholders generally do not receive discounts on standard theme park tickets or on the dining plan. However, there may be limited-time special offers or discounts on specific events or experiences like special events. Additionally, Passholders may be eligible for dining discounts at select table-service restaurants.
