🎟️ [Before you buy] 16 Premier Access rides, ¥1,000 to ¥2,500 — which do you take?
Premier Access, or DPA, gets argued over as one yes-or-no purchase. Counted line by line off the price list, neither the coverage nor the price is uniform, and which one you take moves the total before the number you take does.
What you pay for Premier Access depends on which one you buy. As of Sep 2, 2026 it covers 16 attractions, from ¥1,000 to ¥2,500. The average is ¥1,750, and the ceiling once shows are included is ¥3,500. This article is the reference list: what is covered, and what each band costs.

Coverage and prices change with each revision, so check the official page before you go. The chart below is a guide to how far queues stretch at each crowd level, and those levels are our own forecast rather than a record of attendance.
💴 16 attractions, and the price is not one number!
The price list as of Sep 2, 2026 carries 16 attractions. The cheapest is ¥1,000, the dearest ¥2,500.
The average sits at ¥1,750. With a spread that wide, "buy Premier Access" is not a single decision. Which one you take moves the total before the number of rides does.
📋 The list falls into 4 price bands!?
7 of them are at Tokyo Disneyland and 9 at DisneySea, across 4 price bands.
By band: 2 at ¥1,000, 7 at ¥1,500, 4 at ¥2,000, 3 at ¥2,500. We publish the prices, not translated attraction names — the official page carries the names, in Japanese.
🎭 Is the most expensive slot even a ride?
Attractions are not the whole list. 9 shows carry Premier Access too, priced from ¥2,500 to ¥3,500.
The ceiling across everything is ¥3,500. That ceiling is not set by a ride. Treat Premier Access as a queue-skipping product only and you miss the most expensive slot in it.

Longest wait, roughly
🎯 Same words, very different bills!
Between the cheapest and the dearest attraction, one purchase differs by ¥1,500. Multiply that by the party size and the number of rides.
Decide which one first, not how many. What DPA costs builds the total up; DPA pricing takes the per-minute view.
🧭 Read the date before the price list!
Prices do not change with the date. What changes is whether you need it at all. On a quiet day this page stays closed.
When you need DPA answers which days those are.
