Hi Tom,
Welcome back to planDisney! Thanks for continuing to trust us with your planning questions—we hope we’ve helped make your trips a little more magical.
City Hall is a great place to stop for assistance. The gates to the Happiest Place on Earth open as early as 7:30 a.m. for
Early Entry, but City Hall doesn’t open until 8:00 a.m. If you’re hoping to speak with Guest Services earlier, I recommend visiting the
Guest Services office in the Esplanade between the two parks. There’s a Guest Services booth located east of the Disney California Adventure entrance, and they may be able to assist guests before the parks open. I’d suggest checking there around 7:00 a.m. to see if anyone is available before heading into the park.
Tom, I hope you’ll be able to take part in Disneyland’s
70th anniversary celebration during your visit! The celebration began on May 16, 2025, and will continue through summer 2026. From
entertainment and
themed merchandise to
delicious treats, everything is truly supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! If your trip doesn’t fall during this summer, I still recommend checking out the
2025 Event Calendar for a sneak peek at what will be offered during your visit.
I hope this helps with your planning, Tom! If you have any more questions or need a little extra pixie dust, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me or any of my fellow planDisney panelists. We’re always here to help make your Disney dreams come true!
Happy planning!
