Hi James!
Thank you for sending this
Disneyland Resort planning question to us hEAR at planDisney!
Oh boy! It sounds like you were able to squeeze in some summer Disney fun in the
Southern California sun! I don't have the proper magic mirror to check your
My Disneyland Account to see when your visits were, James, but I do hope that they weren't too long ago as the whole resort is currently transforming into an autumn-colored, pumpkin paradise in preparation for
Halloween Time fun!
Disneyland Resort Theme Park Admission Tickets are non-refundable nor are they transferable once used. If your tickets are standard admission tickets not purchased as part of a
promotion, then these tickets usually have about two weeks from the first day of use until the remaining days expire. If you do hold the special 2022 Summer California Resident Promotional Ticket or a U.S. Military Promotional Park Hopper ticket, then these should state their expiration date under the e-ticket in your
Disneyland Mobile App.
I'm not sure how far you live or work from The Happiest Place on Earth, but a lot of local Guests stop by Mickey's house for '
dinner and a show' of
fireworks,
World of Color,
Fantasmic!, or the limited-time return of the
Main Street Electrical Parade and then head home. When my family was stationed in Southern California, we'd do this often and it was just so cool to go into the parks for a few hours and then go back to work and school the next day like we hadn't partied the world's favorite main Mouse the night before. All of our back-home friends were in awe that Disneyland, this aspirational and once-in-a-lifetime vacation spot, was in our backyard. If you're unable to use the remaining days on your tickets for full Disney days, then I would definitely recommend spoiling yourself by planning some half-days, early mornings, or late nights in Walt's original theme park.
I hope this helped to clEAR up your question, James! Be sure to follow the
