Universal Orlando Passholders get quite a few perks that go beyond just getting you entrance into Universal’s theme parks.

As a Universal Orlando Passholder, you can get discounts on everything from hotels, shopping, and dining. You can also get free gifts throughout the year. Universal Passholders also got early access to Epic Universe and can now get special pricing for the new theme park. However, one of the best perks comes with an annual event, Universal Orlando Passholder Appreciation Days.
Universal Orlando has confirmed that Universal Orlando Passholder Appreciation Days will be returning this year from August 15th through September 30th. During that time, Passholders can get extra exclusive perks, including TWO new magnets, one celebrating the 10th year of the Universal Orlando Annual Passholder program in August, and another in September.

You can also get special discounts on Universal Express passes, mobile food and drink orders, Universal’s Great Movie Escape, and Universal Volcano Bay Cabanas, as well as premium seating, food and drinks, and more. The Universal Annual Passholder Lounge in Toon Lagoon will stay open longer from park open to close. Plus you can get Passholder-exclusive merchandise.

Passholders will also be able to buy an exclusive Coca-Cola Freestyle Souvenir Cup, which can be refilled throughout Universal Orlando Resort. Special food and drinks will be also be available during this time:
- Universal Islands of Adventure: Storm Chaser and Cucumber Collins at Backwater Bar and Smoked Brisket Burger at Captain America Diner
- Universal Studios Florida: Florida Tea and Fried Pickles at Finnegan’s Bar and Grill
- Universal CityWalk: Cookie Butter Donut at Voodoo Doughnut, Tlayuda at Antojitos Authentic Mexican Food, Cowboy Candy Chicken Sandwich at NBC Sports Grill & Brew, Pasta al Limone at Vivo Italian Kitchen, and Peach for the Stars at Rising Star

Passholders can also get exclusive dining space upstairs at Lombard’s Seafood Grille in Universal Studios Florida (as well as exclusive menu items) PLUS an exclusive drink at Universal’s Great Movie Escape in Universal CityWalk.

Passholder Nights will also return. On August 15th and 16th, an exclusive FREE after-hours party for Passholders will take place throughout Universal Studios Florida. There will also be special event offerings throughout Universal Studios restaurants, special character meet and greets, and a free Passholder Nights button.
Finally Passholders will also get special menu items at select restaurants at Universal Orlando hotels.

I’ve been covering Universal Orlando for about five years now, and 2025 could be one of the best times EVER to be a Universal Orlando Passholder, especially with Passholder Appreciation Days coming up so soon. So be sure to check it out!
