    Edgar from AZ Asked Please note that experiences, policies, pricing and other offerings are subject to change and may have changed since the date of this answer.

    Are backpacks and water bottles or hydro flasks allowed? If so, regular backpack or clear ones?

    Hiya, Edgar! Thanks for stopping by with your question. I am happy to help!

    My family and I always carry a backpack when we visit the Disneyland Resort theme parks. It's perfect for holding a reusable water bottle, jackets, and snacks. Just be sure that your backpack is no larger than 24" long x 15" wide x 18" high. It does not have to be clear.  Your backpack will need to go through a security check by a Cast Member before you enter the Disneyland Resort. I recommend giving yourself extra time for this, especially if you are trying to get there for the park opening. 

    More good news, your reusable water bottle is also welcome. In fact, it's encouraged! You can find water bottle-filling stations throughout the parks by using the Disneyland Mobile App search function and typing "Bottle-Filling Stations." From there, click on "Find on Map" to see the closest one.  

    Edgar, I hope this helps. Please visit planDisney again with any other questions!

    See ya real soon,
    Melissa
