Thanks for bringing your question to planDisney, Molly! I'm so happy that you are planning a trip with your family. It's the best way to experience the magic of the
Disneyland Resort!
Unfortunately, the current
Southern California Resident Ticket is only good for residents with a government-issued photo ID with an eligible ZIP code (from 90000 to 93599). This means the tickets cannot be gifted unless the person is an eligible resident with a photo ID. Cast Members verify residency eligibility at the Main Entrance gate, and I would hate for them to be turned away and instructed to purchase another ticker to enter. I'm sorry if this isn't what you hoped to hear, Molly.
I encourage you to keep an eye on the
Offers & Discounts page of the Disneyland Website, as the deals there are regularly updated. There are currently deals for members of the military and special kids' discount tickets (though the current deal ends March 20, 2025). Also, be sure to follow the
Disneyland Instagram account and the
Disney Parks Blog for the most up-to-date information about resort offerings. And, as a Magic Key holder, make sure to utilize those
Magic Key Discounts - it's one of the great perks of being a Magic Key pass holder!
I hope this information helps, Molly. Please visit us again if you have any other questions!
Have a magical day,
Melissa
