Families with preschoolers! The FREE Valleyfair Pre-K Pass for 2025 is now available. With this pass your 3 – 5 year-old can get in to Valleyfair and Soak City for unlimited FREE visits during the 2025 season.
Yes! That means they can go for free, all through 2025!
The process changed a couple years ago. Now you have to purchase a season pass (which you would use for yourself), and then you register your child online for the free pass.
This makes sense, since your child can’t visit alone, and a season pass is the best deal if you want to get multiple visits in.
Here’s what you have to do:
Step 1: Purchase a Season Pass.
Step 2: Register your child online for their free Pre-K Pass by August 1, 2025. (Guests may not register at the park.)
Step 3: After registering your child/children online, bring them to the park on a public operating day to activate their pass at the main entrance by August 1, 2025. Make sure to bring your child and a valid birth certificate or passport that shows their age.
Step 4: After you activate your Pre-K Pass, your child can come and go as often as you’d like throughout the season – for FREE!
Note that kids must be age 3 – 5 at the time of activation, so for example, if your child is 5, be sure to register and activate their pass before they turn 6.
Valleyfair started offering this pass in 2017 and it’s been super popular so don’t miss out!
