2026 Knott's Berry Farm Gold Passes Will Include New Regional Park Access
Starting this month, 2026 Knott's Berry Farm Gold passes will Include New Regional Park Access. Throughout the month of February, regional benefits will appear on park product webpages and benefits grids as each region launches its new Gold benefit. Texas regional access launches today, with the other three regions to follow.
Current Knott’s Berry Farm Passholders, here is the biggest change coming with the new Regional Park Access included with a Gold Pass. IF you purchased a 2026 Gold Pass after the MVP sale and paid to add All Park Passport, you will be upgraded to a Prestige Pass. If you purchased a 2026 Gold Pass during the MPV sale, there will be no change. Looking to 2027, MVP passholders, when and if you renew, your pass for 2027 will convert to Regional Park Access. To have the All Park Passport, you will need Prestige.
Typically providing access for the cardholder’s local park only, Six Flags Gold season passes and memberships will include a significant enhancement in 2026. All Gold passes and memberships will include access to a designated group of parks within its geographic region, allowing guests to enjoy multiple destinations with one pass. The four pass regions include West, Texas, Midwest and East.
