Welcome to planDisney Charlett!
I'm so glad that you were able to take advantage of the wonderful
ticket offer for California residents.
Theme park reservations for the California Resident Park Hopper Ticket Offer are limited in number, subject to availability, and there may be blockout dates. The farther in advance you can make your theme park reservations the better, and the
theme park reservation availability calendar will be a great resource for you. When viewing the calendar, click on "CA Resident Park Hopper Ticket" to view dates with available theme park reservations.
If you decide to purchase a new, standard
theme park ticket, you are correct that there are different dates and theme park reservation availability since it is a different theme park ticket type. This coming weekend is a holiday weekend, which is usually busier than other weekends during January.
There are so many exciting things to experience whether it's the continuation of the
Disneyland Resort 70th Celebration, or the
Lunar New Year Festival at Disney California Adventure Park! The
foodie guide for Lunar New Year just dropped on the Disney Parks Blog, I definitely recommend checking it out for a future visit! The celebration of the year of the horse begins on January 23 and runs through February 22, 2026.
I hope you're able to get back to the "Happiest Place on Earth" soon Charlett! Don't hesitate to
come back to planDisney if you think of any other questions.
Have a magical day!
Melissa
