- First, search the theme park's website. You may find tickets at a reduced rate when ordered online. Some theme park companies also advertise deals and discounts especially in the summer season or events such as Halloween or Christmas.
-
Buy your ticket as early as a month before the trip. Search for packages that include park tickets and accommodation. You may also save money with park hopper tickets, which would allow you to visit two theme parks in one day.
During the summer months you may be able to get discounted tickets at your local grocery stores. -
The benefits of a discounted ticket is evident in the savings you will get especially when you are buying tickets for a number of people.
Club cards like AAA offer member-only pricing. - Before purchasing the discounted ticket, you may want to check if the vendor is reputable. Avoid buying used tickets, as the annual pass may have restrictions the seller does not warn you about. Annual passes or two-day passes are supposed to only have one owner linked to the ticket number, and if the name on the ticket does not match your ID, you will be denied entrance. Check blackout dates. Black out dates are restricted dates when certain ticket holders will not be admitted to the park. Usually, black out dates apply to peak periods and discounted tickets.
- Ask if the theme park is offering promotions in affiliation with a third party vendor. For example, there was a time when tickets at a particular theme park ticket cost less with a can of soda. Become a member of the theme park's mailing list to be notified of updates and special deals.
