Nick Cannon Reveals the Shocking Amount Money He Spends Taking 12 Kids to Disneyland Every Year
Nick Cannon revealed on The Breakfast Club radio show that taking his 12 kids to Disneyland is a pricey affair, and he does it at least once a month due to numerous birthdays and holidays, making the annual cost overwhelming.
The actor revealed that, prior to hosting the Christmas morning parade, he received free admission and other benefits. However, as his family grew, the cost of taking his children to Disneyland each month became prohibitively expensive for the average person.
“Do you know how much money I spend at Disneyland a year?” Cannon asked host Charlamagne tha God.
“The crazy thing is … I used to host Christmas morning at Disneyland,” continued the 43-year-old, who hosted the Disney Parks Christmas Day parade from 2009 to 2019. “So, I used to get that Disney bag … there were perks!”
“So, all of that stuff was free. It’s no longer free, and I only had two kids then,” he added, referring to now-12-year-old twins, Moroccan and Monroe, whom he shares with ex-wife Mariah Carey.
“I’m literally at Disneyland at least once a month, and to move around Disney, like — I’m probably spending $200,000 a year at Disney,” Cannon said.
“Disneyland is expensive already off top, like, if you trying to stay in the hotel. It’s not how it used to be … you gotta make reservations,” he said, adding, “I’m like, ‘Mickey, can you hook a [man] up? Can I get my job back?’ That’s one job I need back!”

Cannon, who is married to Brittany Bell and has 12 children total—including twins with Mariah Carey—shared a family photo from their trip to Disneyland to celebrate Rise’s first birthday.
His other children include three with Abby De La Rosa: twin boys Zion and Zillion, daughter Beautiful, and sons Golden, Rise, and Powerful with Brittany Bell; son Legendary with Bre Tiesi; and daughter Onyx with LaNisha Cole.
The 12th child of Cannon and Alyssa Scott, daughter Halo, was born in December of last year. Tragically, in 2021, Cannon lost his son Zen to a brain tumor.
