Disneyland Wait Times for July 2024
We’ve entered the summer season, and even The Happiest Place on Earth changes a bit at this time of year.
More tourists travel to Disneyland Resort, leading to larger crowds and even more thrilled guests.
You can get a contact high just roaming the Disneyland campus and hearing all the laughter.
All things being equal, we’d all rather be at Disney, right? Well, we can be during the summer.

How did our love of all things Disney impact the crowds? Here are Disneyland’s wait times for July 2024.

We only cover Disneyland wait times once a month, which makes the data a bit more static.
While wild fluctuations are rarer when we take the meta-view, this is the time of year when they’re more likely to happen.

While Disneyland Park hosts plenty of iconic attractions, some of them remain more popular than others.
Theoretically, we should get even distribution when 5,000 extra guests show up at the park on a lovely summer day.
In reality, most of those people have their hearts set on the biggies like Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, though.
So, those wait times inevitably go up in the summer, but the question is typically, “By how much?”

Meanwhile, at Disney California Adventure, we’re tracking a couple of potential bumps.
Society is once again in a very Pixar place, which makes the Pixar Fest a VERY popular event.

The other question I’ve got is whether even something as vanilla as Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind gets a bump from Inside Out 2.
Overall, what matters at Disneyland right now is simply the calendar.

We’re in the middle of the premiere tourist season. With schools out, parents can take their kids to Disney theme parks.
People in the western half of the United States think of Disneyland first. So, that’s where they’re most likely to go.

As such, wait times typically trend upward at this time of year.
I’ll go ahead and spoil you on the fact that they did this past June, although not by a lot.

That’s the other thing to keep in mind. While I call this the July wait times, we’re examining data from the past 30 days.
So, we’re talking about June crowds here. Without any new attractions, we should expect generally the same behavior as last year.

Overall, the average DCA attraction required guests to stand in line for 33 minutes, which is two minutes more than last time.
Also, Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind does appear to have gotten a bump from the billion-dollar blockbuster, Inside Out 2.

DL Crowds
This attraction rarely averages more than 20 minutes in wait time. So, it’s not a huge bump, but it is about 25 percent.
The Inside Out brand is liquid metal hot right now, folks. Don’t be surprised if it gains an increased park presence.
