Universal Orlando Resort has announced this week that Passholder Appreciation Days are returning. Marketed as "We love to show you the love", these Passholder Appreciation Days are taking place between August 15 - September 30, 2022.

The celebration is promised to include perks, discounts and opportunities at the parks, hotels and Universal CityWalk.

Universal seems to be pulling out all the stops when it comes to trying to keep their annual passholders happy. Universal gave a number of bonus benefits including resort rates, exclusive dining locations and secret menu items and a brand new magnet back at the start of May. More information on these new upcoming perks is promised to be coming our way soon.

Walt Disney World on the other hand still has their Annual Passes paused which has been the case since November 2021. It seems as if Universal is taking this opportuniy to build their Annual Passholder base and shower them with bonuses and new opportunities to show Disney what they are made of.

Although Universal Annual Passes saw a price rise at the beginning of March it doesn't seem to have put off many guests. The current prices for Universal Orlando Resort Annual Passholders can be seen below.
