Auto Renew is the most convenient way to automatically renew your Season Pass every year, and is available on most season passes. Auto-renew guarantees next season’s lowest price and the best benefits. When you sign-up for Auto Renew you will be charged $49 up front in mid-March and the balance in mid-September. If you sign up for the auto-renew program this season, your Pass will automatically renew next March for the 2019/20 season unless you withdraw from the program before the initial charge.
