Knott’s Berry Farm just put its 2027 Season Passes on sale, and the entry-level pass is down to $99 from $215. That price covers unlimited visits for the rest of 2026 and all of 2027, so you’re buying about 17 months of park access.
Three tiers are on the table. The 2027 Season Pass sits at $99 and covers Knott’s with no blockout dates, seasonal event access, and 10% off food and merchandise. The 2027 Gold Pass runs $129 and stretches admission across all Six Flags parks in California, Arizona, and Mexico, waterparks included. The 2027 Prestige Pass is $329 and adds free parking, VIP area access, 15% food and merch discounts, and free fountain beverages on every visit.
Do the passes include Spooky Farm and Merry Farm?
Yes. All three tiers include Knott’s Spooky Farm and Merry Farm, the park’s fall and holiday seasonal events. That’s the detail worth pausing on, because seasonal event access is normally where a cheap pass stops being useful. Here it’s baked into the $99 tier.
The Prestige Pass also carries two free Bring-A-Friend tickets annually and two-hour VIP entrance on Saturdays and Sundays. Season and Gold passholders get a Bring-A-Friend discount instead. If you’re weighing Knott’s Berry Farm against a multi-park year, the Gold Pass is the one that opens up Six Flags Magic Mountain. Six Flags added West Region access to Gold passes in February 2026, which is why the $129 tier reaches that far.
What is the renewal bonus deadline?
Renewal pricing lands at $95 for the Season Pass, $119 for Gold, and $319 for Prestige. Season and Gold renewals by September 7, 2026 come with a free Bring-A-Friend ticket. Prestige renewals get an extra Bring-A-Friend plus $20 in park credit.
Add-ons sold separately include All Season Fast Lane, All Season Dining Plans, and All Season Drink Plans. Taxes may apply to every pass price listed.
Shark Take
If you already know you’re doing Spooky Farm this fall, the math stops being close. The $99 pass gets you into the event and every remaining 2026 operating day, then rolls straight into next year. Just don’t sleep past September 7 if you’re renewing, since that’s the date the bonus tickets are tied to. Carowinds is running the same lowest-price-of-the-year deal on its 2027 passes if a second park is in play.
