The above post I made (unable to edit it) is now incorrect. They are offering 50% off season / annual passes to anyone who came in with a friend for free. Glad my partner got his for $35 when we did! We were actually about to buy his online anyway when I saw the deal!

Dreamworld have just released the June 2019 pass on their ticketing page

$129 for adults, $109 kids including ride/character photos for the duration of the pass.

 

That's actually a pretty good deal. Even with the recent 6x8 photo special for $10, getting ride photos are an expensive add-on to a trip. Having them included is a boon for guests. And although they'll only be electronic, for most people, thats the only place they put them these days - prints are less and less relevant with each passing year.

I'd be inclined to think this will be good value for the park. People will use these photos on social media, giving the park good word of mouth and hopefully bolstering sales. The cost of giving the away the photos for free might be offset by the marketing bonus they get from them. 

Renewal offer/price for season passes expiring this month is $69.50 for adults and $59.50 for children, available in park with presentation of old pass for those curious. Includes the DreamPix photo pass as per new passholders.

Thanks. Got mine today! 

Works out about 18 cents a day for me. Insanely cheap!

Have to say this is a terrific idea by DW and makes the upfront costs for families a lot more manageable 

DW are ending their memberships

I wonder if Village will do the same.  Hope not! 

What the difference between a membership and a season pass ??

Season Passes usually go for 12 months for one price, the memberships are a monthly payment for a minimum 12 months and included benefits 

That's pretty good though - they've given people basically two months notice on the end of the deal, and despite ending payments on 1/8 they're still giving every member access to 15 September (some will benefit - eg: those who paid on July 2 get 1.5 months free, whereas those who pay on August 1 will only get 2 weeks free, it's still pretty good - plus everyone has two months to decide whether they want to upgrade their pass, and save up the money for it if that's what they decide to do.

 

No doubt, there will still be those out there that think just because they've been paying monthly for a service for a year or two, that somehow entitles them to special treatment, or the right to continue to pay it off that way regardless of whether the park is making a profit out of it.

Those people are likely the people who staunchly stand by the park with words, but not with actions.

Those people know who they are.

I will admit, I did enjoy some of the perks (15% off instead of the 10% was nice, especially having a few sneaky drinks up at Skypoint, as well as the unlimited soft drink deals) but I guess their time has come now for these passes to be discontinued. Not sure if i'm going to bother switching over to a season pass or not...

The new rates are over the sky and i can not afford it

The prices are dirt cheap for a whole year of unlimited access to all the attractions in the park.

Far too cheap, actually.
