Planning a trip to Disney World this month? We don’t blame you!

SO many experiences are kicking off at Disney World in August, and that means plenty of people will be flocking to the parks to check them out. If you’re thinking about buying any Lightning Lanes for your trip, you might want to avoid these dates — they’re the priciest!
Lightning Lane is Disney’s paid skip-the-line service, and it can seriously come in handy on busier days — but it also gets more expensive on busier days. We’re breaking down the most expensive dates to buy Lightning Lanes at Disney World in August.

Before we do, here’s a bit of a refresher: Lightning Lane Multi Pass allows you to pay one price to skip the lines at multiple attractions, while Lightning Lane Single Pass lets you pay one price to skip the line once at individual attractions.
There is also the newest option, Lightning Lane Premier Pass. This option allows guests one-time access to each Lightning Lane entrance at attractions in a single theme park per day, with the flexibility to use it at any time—no need to reserve a time slot in advance.

Now that we’ve got that covered, let’s get into those PRICES! Below is a list of the dates with the most expensive Lightning Lane prices for August (note that at the time of writing, the full calendar of prices was not out yet):
