Jenn, October 6, 2024February 20, 2025 Sharing is caring! 207 shares Share190 Tweet Pin17 Hersheypark Season Passes are worth every cent, we have had them since 2019, and love the convenience. Hersheypark is our local theme park, as it’s only 45 minutes from our house, my coaster loving girls will go any chance they get, and we certainly get our moneys worth. Each year the passes add MORE perks! In 2025, Hersheypark has FOUR different tiers of passes, that will work for any budget. Let’s take a closer look. Hersheypark Season Passes Hersheypark is the perfect theme park- year round! Yes, you heard me right, year round. The season begins with Springtime in the Park and ends on January 2- with Christmas Candylane. It’s nine months of non-stop fun, add in The Boardwalk at Hershey during the summer months and you have endless possibilities. Hersheypark offers four different pass levels.

We LOVE Our Season Passes Now that you have seen the different pass levels, here are the many reasons you need one. Special Pass-holder Only Events come with the Full, King and Giant Sizes passes. There are also pass-holder appreciation pop up events and more, Hershey really knows how to take care of it’s passholders. ZooAmerica is open year round, and while the park isn’t open your passes begin January 1! Take advantage of no crowds, and enjoy the animals in the colder months. This North American zoo has plenty of active wildlife in the winter months. Did you know the Zoo was started with the private collection of Milton S. Hershey more than 100 years ago? Hersheypark season pass holders have the option to add-on a Season Pass Holder Drink Plan. If you plan to spend a lot of time in the parks the drink plan is worth every penny. Enjoy FREE refills in your exclusive Season Pass Holder cup on fountain drinks and ICEE. Plus, refill even faster at Pepsi Fast Fill locations. Early Park Admission is certainly one of our favorite perks of being a pass-holder. Sweet Start allows Full Size and King Size Season Pass holders to enjoy one hour early access to 5 coasters, 8 family rides, and 11 kiddie rides, including Candymonium, during the summer public operating season. Only Giant, King and Full Size Season Passes will be admitted for Sweet Start and Season Pass Holder events. Dark Nights is included in your King and Giant Size pass- you can enjoy the haunts over and over again! Enjoy lights out rides on Wildcat’s Revenge, as well as many other coasters. Flexibility is a great reason to have a pass, sometimes we just head to the park for the Boardwalk in the summer and then head home. We also drive up later in the day during the week to enjoy the coasters at night. With a season pass you can come and go at your own leisure. Christmas Candylane is included in your pass and you can get in the holiday spirit from November through New Years! Did somebody say discount!? We love getting 15% off food and drinks when we are in the park or at the other Hershey owned properties! Last year I added up my discount and it was $650 between food, drinks and snacks! That is a HUGE savings. 2025 is going to be another sweet year at Hersheypark and you need to be a part of it! Be sure to get your Season Passes now! Pennsylvania Travel

You may of missed one perk, the discounted family and friend tickets you buy with your passes, get the 1 hour Sweet Start perk Which can be very useful
We bought full size season passes this year for the first time. We went this weekend and it was a bit of a bust with the super long lines. In your past experience, how are weekdays in May? And what are “normal” wait times line in the summer for the big coasters? We live about 2.5 hours away, so want to maximize our visits. Thank you! 😊
Hi Karisa, Weekdays Mon-Thurs are always best to visit. Weekends are certainly busier. I have always found Tues/Weds to be the slowest park days over all.
