Hi there, Anna. Welcome to planDisney!
I’m glad to see you’re planning a trip to the Happiest Place on Earth in May 2026. Spring is a great time to visit Mickey Mouse and his friends. The weather is usually not too hot yet in Southern California and the
Disneyland Resort 70th Celebration will still be underway.
Even though reservations for
Disneyland Resort hotels are only open for booking through December 31, 2025, you can start looking at the various room options and amenities available at Pixar Place Hotel, the Disneyland Hotel, and Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa by visiting the
Disneyland Resort website. In the past, hotel reservations for the upcoming year usually opened in late summer or early fall. In terms of
theme park reservations, these open up to 180 days in advance. So for a mid-May 2026 visit, you can begin making theme park reservations around mid-November 2025.
As it gets closer to your travel dates, I recommend checking out the
Disney Parks Blog or following
@Disneyland, the official Disneyland Resort social media account, for the latest news and updates.

Sendng you pixie dust,
