Annual or Season Pass?

If you intend to visit the park at least 3 times in a year, then the Annual Pass will offer savings over buying individual day tickets.

The USS Season Pass ($108 for adults), on the other hand, is just a modest top-up from a One-Day Pass ($79).

Enjoy savings and special events

Apart from unlimited entry to the park during the day, you’ll get to save some money with in-park privileges for select F&B, shopping, and services. Fan of Halloween Horror Nights? Passholders can buy the HHN Frequent Fear Pass and RIP Tours at very special rates!

In last year’s Minion Breakout Party, passholders got free carnival game vouchers and temporary tattoos.

How to sign up for USS Annual and Season Pass

Universal Studios Singapore Annual and Season Pass Guide - Queue for Annual and Season Pass Applications

The Annual/ Season Passes are not typical theme park tickets (whether as eTicket or paper ticket), although you will be given one at point of purchase to enter the park first. Then, you will need to apply at the Membership Lobby to receive your shiny, plastic, and personalised membership card.

New Sign Ups

Buy your ticket at the park entrance or online. Enter the park and head straight to the Hollywood Membership Lobby (queue line shown in photo above).

Already inside the park (Same-Day Upgrade)

Keep your Day Pass ticket after entering the park! Head to the Membership Lobby (near park entrance in Hollywood, or in Sci-Fi City) to upgrade your ticket into an Annual/ Season Pass. For this case, you just need to top-up the difference and don’t need to buy a new pass.

All the frequently asked questions about USS Passes here!

How do I get invited to Passholder events?

When filling up the passholder application, make sure that your contact details are correct and that you consent to receive updates and marketing messages from Universal Studios Singapore and Resorts World at Sentosa via SMS and Email.

How do I renew my Annual Pass? What is the price?

Before your pass expires, simply visit the Membership Lobby to apply for renewal. You will get $10 off the latest price for your existing membership. The validity of your annual pass will be extended by 12 months from the existing expiry date.

I bought a Annual/ Season Pass and it says my ticket is valid for 30 days?

You have 30 days from date of purchase to visit the park’s Membership Lobby to process your park ticket into the plastic card.

I am visiting USS for 2 days. Should I get Two-Day Pass or Season Pass?

If you don’t mind waiting in line for the application process, you will save quite a bit of money choosing the Adult Season Pass ($108) over a Two-Day ticket ($145). As of Jan 2019, the 2-Day Ticket has been discontinued. The Season Pass is a cool personalised souvenir, and who knows – you might be back again within 6 months, and you won’t have to pay to enter the park again!

Click to expand and read all Q&As

How do I qualify for the Student Season Pass?

As long as you have a valid Student ID. No, that old matriculation card from more than 10 years ago does not count.

Can I upgrade from Season Pass to Annual Pass?

According to RWS website, Adult Season Passholders can extend their membership by another 6 months and upgrade it to an Annual Pass by paying $90. This must be done before the Season Pass expires!

Can I borrow someone’s Pass to enter the park?

No, it is not transferable and each Pass has the Passholder’s name and photograph printed on it. For unauthorised use of the Annual/ Season Pass, the park has the right to refuse admission and revoke the membership.

Can I upgrade my normal day ticket to an Annual/ Student Pass?

Yes, simply visit the Membership Lobby and pay the difference to upgrade to an Annual Pass. However, do note that some promotional tickets, like complimentary passes, may not be eligible for upgrades. Please ask at USS Guest Services or Membership Lobby to confirm.

What is this “Season Pass Trick” I heard about?

Instead of paying the renewal fee, an existing Season Passholder would attempt to find a day ticket in the park, or approach other guests for their used tickets, to apply for membership at the upgrade price. While some people have managed to get away with this for years, it is considered dishonest and is strongly discouraged.

Is there a “Family” Pass?

All USS Passes are for single person use only. You will need to buy separate passes for each family member.

Can I use my Annual Pass with Universal Express and bring a friend with me to use the Express line?

No, the Unlimited Express access is for the Passholder only.

Wow, last time there was Superstar Pass? Fun Pass? Action Pass?

The original Annual Pass programme was refined and simplified in 2012, and all the old tiers of Superstar, Action and Fun were discontinued. In the later years, the Season Pass was added to boost park membership. The price came down over the years, making visits to the park more affordable.

    • Dejiki September 4, 2018 at 6:12 pm #

      Yes. The ticket is valid for direct entry to the park where you will need to process your membership to create your personalised Annual Pass. Once you have received your passholder card, you can use it for a period of 1 year.

    Hi, I’m planning to visit Universal Studios Singapore on the 21-22 of October and wondering if I buy a season pass can I buy and Express pass separately for just the 21st, which should cost about $30-$50 extra? Lastly, The website says I need to buy the seasons pass 30 days in advance which means I can only buy the seasons pass after September 23rd right? Thank you in advance for the help.

    • Dejiki September 16, 2018 at 8:48 am #

      You can buy the Express Pass separately. If you want to always have Express access, then it’s a $100 top-up for your Season Pass membership.

      For Season Pass, you can buy anytime, including on the day of your visit to the park. If you buy online, you will need to activate the ticket at the park within 30 days.

        • Dejiki October 13, 2019 at 7:26 pm #

          The USS Season Pass is not valid for other parks and attractions.

          You can buy separate memberships: season pass for Adventure Cove Waterpark; and annual pass for SEA Aquarium. There is also a 3-park Annual Pass for USS, Adventure Cove Waterpark and SEA Aquarium.

      Thanks

      • Dejiki September 13, 2019 at 5:30 pm #

        You can top up the difference to upgrade from a day pass.

      You can renew your pass 2 months before it expires. The validity will be extended for 6 months from the current expiry date.

  14. Eugene May 15, 2019 at 11:23 am #

    To upgrade one day pass to season pass. Can I upgrade it if I already exited uss on the same day. And what if my ticket is not the current date? Let’s say I went to uss 1 month ago. Can I bring that ticket to uss and upgrade it to season pass?

    • Dejiki May 15, 2019 at 1:54 pm #

      Upgrades need to be done on the same day of visit before leaving the park. If you have exited the park, you can still return on the same day if you have requested for the handstamp at the exit turnstiles (and the park has not closed for the day).

      Once the day of visit has passed, the used ticket is no longer eligible for the upgrade.

  15. Jordan Messenger September 25, 2019 at 2:38 pm #

    I have purchased a Season Pass for my upcoming trip, is it possible to pay the extra $100 to add Universal Express and does this have to be done on the first day/redemption or can it be done at any time?

    • Dejiki September 25, 2019 at 3:10 pm #

      As the Passholder card with Express access is printed differently, you should do the upgrade during registration after entering the park for the first time.

  16. Lyn October 3, 2019 at 3:14 pm #

    Hi .. if i purchase a discounted USS Day Pass via RWS online promotion (eg Maybank or Mastercard Promo), can i still upgrade it to 6 months Season Pass? Thanks

    • Dejiki October 7, 2019 at 4:57 pm #

      Typically, most discounted tickets can be upgraded. Since the price you paid for these tickets are lesser than the usual rate, you will pay a higher top-up. You may check with the park’s Membership Lobby for more details.

  17. Rahul December 23, 2019 at 3:41 pm #

    Am unable to decide between
    A> season pass express

    • Dejiki January 7, 2020 at 8:18 pm #

      If you purchase the Season Pass Express, then you are entitled to Express access for the duration of your membership (6 months).
