The headlines:

  • Dates and time: Saturday May 30 and Sunday May 31, 2026, from 12 to 4 p.m.
  • Location: Sea Harbor Pavilions at SeaWorld Orlando.
  • Pricing: $10 per ticket online (Pass Member portal or ID.me) until the day before; $15 per ticket day-of at the venue, subject to capacity.
  • Eligibility: active Bronze, Silver, Gold, or Florida Platinum Pass Members AND active-duty and veteran military members with valid ID.
  • Ticket limit: SeaWorld's event page lists both "Limit 6 guests per person" and "Limit 7 tickets per member" without reconciling; confirm at checkout in the Pass Member portal.
  • Park admission and parking required and not included. No re-entry.

What's on the menu

Per the official SeaWorld Pass Member Picnic page:

  • Hamburgers
  • Hot dogs
  • BBQ pulled pork sandwiches
  • Macaroni salad
  • Chef salad
  • Pit beans
  • Assorted cupcakes and cookies
  • Water or lemonade

The picnic is included with the ticket; you don't buy a la carte at the venue.

How it fits with the rest of the SeaWorld summer

The Pass Member Picnic is the opening-weekend bonus for Pass Members at the new ride lineup. The pipeline:

  • Now operating: Expedition Odyssey: Fire & Ice (we covered the grand opening Monday and the day-2 reviews Wednesday).
  • This weekend: Pass Member Picnic Saturday and Sunday at Sea Harbor Pavilions.
  • Friday June 5 to Saturday August 8: Discovery Cove's Paradise Nights returns for the first time since 2018 (we covered the pre-launch yesterday). Discovery Cove's official page lists "Select Nights" only; check the booking calendar for specific dates.
  • Friday June 12 to Monday September 7: Electric Ocean returns at SeaWorld Orlando with Hydro Surge cirque at Nautilus Theater, Club SeaGlow DJ party at Bayside Stadium, three nighttime animal presentations, the drone-into-Ignite handoff, and the Ignite fireworks finale.

How to buy tickets

Tickets are available via two channels until the day before:

  • SeaWorld Pass Member portal at $10 per ticket. Sign in with your Pass Member account.
  • ID.me verification for active-duty and veteran military members at $10 per ticket.

Day-of tickets at the venue are $15 each and subject to capacity. If the picnic sells out the online tier, the day-of tier may not have availability.

Quick planner notes

  • Buy online before Friday end-of-day. The $5-per-ticket online discount goes away at the venue door, and capacity is enforced.
  • Park admission and parking are separate. You need to enter SeaWorld Orlando through the main gate before walking to Sea Harbor Pavilions. Plan parking and admission timing accordingly.
  • Stack with Fire & Ice. The new ride is now operating during regular park hours and pairs naturally with a midday picnic visit.
  • Ticket cap is 6 or 7 depending on which line of SeaWorld's page you read. If you're bringing a larger group, buy tickets in two or three transactions to stay within whichever cap applies.
  • Memorial Day weekend wraps Sunday. Either day works; Saturday tends to draw more local Pass Members, Sunday closes out the holiday weekend.
