It seems that Disney chose today as a day for price hikes! Let’s talk about the specifics of the new cost of tickets at Disneyland Resort, effective today.

Previously, there were 6 tiers available for Disney Guests to purchase. Along with the price increases, Disney added another option called “Tier 0”.
The least expensive of the bunch, it’s priced at $104. Reportedly, the 1-day ticket will be valid on the least crowded days of the year, a tempting benefit for Guests.
As for add-ons, Hotel Valet jumped 30% from $50 to $65.

The most pricey 1-day Park Hopper ticket now costs $244 a day. Disneyland hasn’t increased ticket prices since October 2021.
A Disneyland official stated, “Disneyland Resort is always planning the next new idea, attraction, and story. Our tiered ticketing structure offers Guests different options to experience that magic throughout the year, including our lowest price point – which hasn’t changed since 2019.”
