Hi Brenda, welcome to planDisney!
Thanks for bringing your question to us, I'll do my best to help!
The
Disneyland Resort uses a
ticketing Tier system for
standard one-day theme park tickets. This means the price of the ticket will vary depending on the
theme park reservation date that you select. Tickets currently range from Tier 1 to Tier 6. Tier 1 has the most restrictions in terms of eligible reservation dates and Tier 6 has the least number of restrictions. The ticket that you purchase will be valid for admission on the date you selected and on dates in the same or lower tier. Peak demand days, like holidays and weekends, are typically higher Tier days. So if you have a standard one-day theme park ticket, it could potentially be a lower Tier ticket, preventing you from booking days that require a higher Tier ticket. But don't worry you still have options! You can call the
Disneyland Resort Ticket Line at 714-781-4636, and the Cast Members can help you upgrade your ticket!
Another check you can do is to make sure you do not have a current reservation already booked. If you do, you'll need to cancel your current theme park reservation, and book a new one for your preferred date. You can check by logging in to your Disneyland Resort account, selecting the "My Disneyland" link, and then clicking the "Ticket and Reservation Details" link.
If you have any more questions, you know where to find us!
See ya real soon!
