Discovery Pass Prices
The Niagara Falls USA Discovery Pass will be valid from the opening day in spring 2019 (to be determined - dependent on ice conditions) until October 20, 2019.
Even though the park is open 365 days a year, the opening of our attractions is based on ice conditions in the Niagara River. The Discovery Pass will become valid once both the Cave of the Winds and Maid of the Mist are both open in spring 2019. However, individual tickets to attractions may still be available before and after the Pass is valid.
Prices for 2019
Adult (12 years old +)* $46
Child (6-12 years old)* $35
*Niagara Falls offers FREE admission to all Park attractions to children 5 and under. Aquarium of Niagara honors Children 5 and under FREE with Discovery Pass.
There is a one dollar transaction fee per ticket for online Discovery Pass orders.
Discovery Passes provide one admission to each attraction and do not need to be used the day they are purchased. You may use throughout the duration of your visit, however, all passes will expire on October 20, 2019. For example, if you arrive late on a Tuesday, buy your pass and only have time to ride the Maid of the Mist, you may come back Wednesday to do the Cave of the Winds. However, the trolley ticket is good for only one day of transportation so you would need to purchase a trolley wristband for each day you are in the park and require trolley transportation.
Please Note: The Discovery Pass does not provide early admission or line advancement at attractions. Also, Cave of the Winds is a timed, ticketed attraction, so it is suggested that you start your day in the park there.
