Disney announced more plans today for the April 30 reopening of its Southern California theme parks – Disneyland and California Adventure.
Main takeway? You'll need a reservation to get in.
Some important details:
- The reservation system will launch on April 12 for guests who already had exisiting, valid tickets.
- Guests WITHOUT existing tickets can start making reservations April 15.
- Admission will initially be available to California residents only, in groups no larger than three households.
- If you have a Park Hopper ticket, you'll have to pick which park you want to start in, then you can visit the other park after 1 p.m. that same day.
- Hours for both Disneyland and California Adventure will be 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Face coverings and temperature checks will be required.

As Editor-in-Chief of our newsroom, I’m extremely proud of the work our top-notch journalists are doing here at LAist. We’re doing more hard-hitting watchdog journalism than ever before — powerful reporting on the economy, elections, climate and the homelessness crisis that is making a difference in your lives. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to maintain a paywall-free, independent news source that informs, inspires, and engages everyone.
Simply put, we cannot do this essential work without your help.

LAist has been there for you and we’re asking you to be here for us.
We rely on donations from readers like you to stay independent, which keeps our nonprofit newsroom strong and accountable to you.
