Disneyland Park Passes NOW Available
We’ve got some very exciting news for all of our West Coast Disney friends! As of this morning, Disneyland Park Pass Reservations are official open for booking for dates starting April 30 2021!
As you can see from the infographic above, booking at the moment is limited to those with existing Disneyland tickets. Those looking to purchase NEW tickets can do so beginning on April 15, 2021.
What Are Park Passes?
For those unfamiliar, Disneyland Park Passes are now a MANDATORY part of the planning process for those visiting the theme parks. Due to COVID-19 capacity restrictions, Disneyland will be regulating the number of guests that visit the park each day.
In order to monitor this, guests are now required to make a park pass reservation IN ADDITION TO having a valid Disneyland theme park ticket. If you do not have both a ticket and a park pass you will not be allowed into the theme park.
It’s also important to note that park passes will sell out (like a dining reservation) so its important to check availability before planning your visit and book in your passes as soon as possible.
Check Park Pass Availability First
Before your buy your ticket or book your Disneyland Hotel stay, it is recommended that you FIRST check theme park pass availability. If there aren’t passes available on the day you were planning on visiting the parks, you will not be allowed to enter.

The image above provides an example of what the availability calendar looks like. As you can see, since passes just opened up this morning, all parks still have availability.
However, we may see things start to book up quickly when reservations open up on the 15th. You can access the LIVE version of the Disneyland Park Pass Availability Calendar here.
