Hello there, Nkechi! Thanks for stopping by planDisney with your question!
I am so glad that you are looking into purchasing a
Magic Key pass to enjoy the Disneyland Resort all year long! Since you are a California resident, you are eligible to buy your Magic Key using a monthly payment plan. The $179 down payment is the only down payment amount allowed at this time. Depending on the type of Magic Key you select, your monthly payments will range from $19 to $102 per month.
Before you select your Magic Key type, be sure to check the
blockout calendars and the different perks associated with each Magic Key. If you want parking included with your pass, you'll want to opt for the Dream Key. If you are a southern California resident, then you might consider the Imagine Key since it's only available to those who reside within certain California ZIP codes.
Finally, don't forget that
theme park reservations are required each time you want to visit the parks with your Magic Key. You can hold between two and six theme park reservations at a time depending on the type of Magic Key you select. Reservations can be made up to 90 days in advance and you will use a calendar that is just for Magic Key holders to check availability.
I hope you have a wonderful time at the Disneyland Resort!
