Visitors will be able to choose from Chessington World of Adventures, Legoland Windsor Resort, Alton Towers Resort or Thorpe Park.
So if you were to go every day for the three-month period, it means you would be paying less than £1 a day.
There are some exclusion dates which apply to all of the theme parks in the offer.
They include August 24 and 25 and October 18, 25, 26 and 31.
Jordan Middleton, head of Merlin Annual Pass, commented: "A Merlin Annual Pass is the perfect way to access a summer of adventure for families and thrill-seekers alike for a great price.
"With unlimited access to a whole host of exhilarating attractions, a Merlin Annual Pass offers unforgettable memories right on your doorstep.
With the Thorpe Park Thrill Pass, for example, visitors can enjoy three months of access to the attraction - which is home to over 25 rides, including its 'Big 6' coasters.
One of these rollercoasters boasts the title of the UK's tallest, fastest and most weightless rollercoaster - Hyperia.
There are also water rides to enjoy on the hotter days.
At Alton Towers Resort - the UK's largest theme park - there are over 40 rides and attractions for all ages.

There are 10 main rollercoasters, each of which have record-breaking elements too.
For younger children, there are 20 attractions including the only place in the UK where visitors can meet some of CBeebies best-loved characters.
Meanwhile, at Chessington World of Adventures there is a theme park, zoo and Sea Life centre.
The destination boasts over 40 rides and attractions and over 1,000 animals.
And finally, at Legoland Windsor Resort there are over 55 rides and attractions based on Lego and Duplo brands and designed for three to 12-year-olds.
There are approximately 47million Lego bricks throughout the park, with around 20million in Miniland alone.

Alternatively, annual passes are still available, with multiple different options that also have free parking and discounts on food and hotel stays.
In addition, Legoland is even getting a grand new look.
Earlier in June, new images revealed that the entrance gates to the park will undergo an upgrade.
The plans show that two new structures will be built on either side of the Legoland sign - which look like giant Lego bricks.
They will also include Lego characters such as knights and ninjas.
Lego characters such as knights and ninjas are also on the towers.
Other upgrades at the park include a new Brick Street Cafe, improved bag search and ticket areas and crossing.
Plus, The Sun's Veronica Lorraine recently tested all the rollercoasters at Thorpe Park.

Late Queen ‘refused to open airport terminal' after relative stopped with guns
The late Queen refused to open an airport terminal after a relative on his way to see her at Balmoral was stopped from boarding a plane with his guns, he has claimed. Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a first cousin once removed of Prince Philip, the late Duke of Edinburgh, revealed he was prevented from taking his shotguns on a flight from Bristol to Aberdeen. He told Gyles Brandreth's Rosebud podcast how a 'sweet check-in lady' told him the hold was accessible from the cabin so they would not be secure, despite him telling a manager: 'The Queen's sending me a car and she's expecting me for tea.' In the end, his guns were left in the police armory at the airport and Lord Ivar took the flight to Scotland to join the Queen for the shooting weekend in the Highlands. Later that day at Balmoral, when he recounted the tale to the Queen, it led to her 'getting rather irritated' and dispatching her equerry to arrange transportation of the guns, Lord Ivar said. The aristocrat, who is also Elizabeth II's distant cousin, told Brandreth: 'She said…'I would like Lord Ivar's guns to be up here tomorrow morning. Please see to it'. 'Whereupon she turns back to me and she looks at me over her glasses with a glint in her eye and she says 'They want me to open their new terminal'. She says 'I don't think I will now'.' Lord Ivar added: 'So every time I go back to Bristol Airport now, it was opened by the Princess Royal, I have a quiet laugh to myself.' Anne first opened a terminal building at Bristol Airport in 2000, and later opened a terminal extension in 2015. Lord Ivar, whose great-uncle was Earl Mountbatten, this year appeared in the third season of the reality show The Traitors US.

The Thursday Murder Club leading lady Helen Mirren links arms with her a-list co-stars as they join writer Richard Osman at first photocall for the new crime comedy film
The Thursday Murder Club's leading lady Helen Mirren was in great spirits as she linked arms with her co-stars Celia Imrie, Sir Ben Kinsley and Pierce Brosnan at the film's photocall on Tuesday. The actress, 80, cut a glamorous figure in a chic blue and white shirt dress as she posed with her fellow thespians while promoting the crime comedy film based on Richard Osman 's best-selling novel. Meanwhile, Richard joined his a-list cast of actors as they posed for the cameras at the event held at London 's British Library. The 6ft7" writer, 54, looked smart in a grey blazer and black top as he let his cast take centre stage for the shoot. Elsewhere, adding to her stylish look, Helen - sandwiched between Ben and Pierce - added light blue loafers and statement white earrings. Celia, 73, meanwhile was very demure in a navy blazer-style top which she paired with black pinstripe trousers and glam diamond jewellery. Not to be outdone, both Pierce, 72, and Ben, 81, looked smart in sharp blazers for the event. While director Chris Columbus was also on hand to show his support. The Thursday Murder Club centers on a witty group of retirees who spend their days in a peaceful retirement community—bonding over their shared hobby of solving cold cases. But their quiet pastime takes a thrilling turn when they stumble upon a fresh murder mystery that demands their attention. Mirren leads the cast as Elizabeth, a sharp ex-spy with a knack for uncovering secrets. Brosnan plays Ron, a former union activist with a passionate spirit. While Ben Kingsley portrays Ibrahim, an insightful ex-psychiatrist. Celia Imrie rounds out the group as Joyce, a compassionate ex-nurse who balances the team. It is directed by Chris Columbus, known for Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, with a screenplay penned by Katy Brand and Suzanne Heathcote. Osman wrote the book in secret over 18 months, sparking a fierce 10-way bidding war before Penguin Random House secured the rights for a seven-figure deal in 2019. Upon its 2020 release, The Thursday Murder Club became the only novel that year to sell over one million copies, ranking as the third best-selling hardback behind Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol and JK Rowling's Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. The success led to three sequels: The Man Who Died Twice (2021), The Bullet That Missed (2022), and The Last Devil to Die (2023). A fifth installment is already planned for publication next year.
