I live in Celebration, Florida, next door to the parks. I publish independent data on the Disney parks. What things really cost, who takes a cut, and where it's all heading. I show my sources on everything so you can check the numbers yourself.

The Turnstile ReportWhen will Epic Universe have annual passes?

Has the time finally come for Universal to offer annual passes to Epic Universe? Based on the financials I am saying yes. I predict Epic annual passes by Q1 2027. This quarter's Turnstile report goes deep on Epic Universe and letting the locals into the park.

The numbers behind the magic.

Independent data on the Disney parks. Real rates, real spreads, real trends, pulled from the sources and published with the methodology in the open.

Numbers you can check without trusting me.

Most numbers in this world arrive without sources. Rumor threads, sponsored trip reports, screenshots of screenshots. I wanted the numbers to come with receipts, so I wrote down the rules I hold every report to: every figure dated, every source public and linked, every claim checkable without taking my word for it.
