Hi Paul John! Welcome to planDisney. It's great that you're thinking ahead about how you'll keep your devices charged during your visit to the
Disneyland Resort. Between checking attraction wait times, placing mobile food orders, managing Lightning Lane reservations, and snapping photos throughout the day, a reliable battery can be almost as important as a comfortable pair of walking shoes!
I reviewed the
Disneyland Resort Rules, and portable power stations, battery packs, and portable chargers are not specifically listed among the prohibited items. However, Security Cast Members make the final determination regarding items brought into the resort. Because of that, I recommend having an alternative charging plan available just in case any questions arise during the screening process.
If you're looking for a convenient backup option, the Disneyland Resort offers
Portable Phone Charging Service Kiosks throughout the resort. Purchasing a charger includes cables and adapters compatible with most devices. When the battery runs low, you can exchange it at another kiosk for a freshly charged replacement. My wife actually purchased one several visits ago and affectionately nicknamed it her "freshie." It has become a regular part of our Disneyland packing list!
You can easily locate these kiosks using the
Disneyland app. Open the Park Map, tap the search icon, and enter "Portable Phone Charging Service Kiosks." Select "Find on Map," and the available locations will appear. You'll find kiosks throughout Disneyland Park, Disney California Adventure Park, the Downtown Disney District, Disneyland Hotel, Pixar Place Hotel, and Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa.
One final Q-Tip: Disneyland also recommends a few battery-saving strategies, including lowering screen brightness, disabling your personal hotspot when not in use, and limiting automatic cloud uploads. Those simple adjustments can help stretch your battery life while you're enjoying everything from a stroll down Main Street, U.S.A. to an evening in Cars Land after the neon lights come to life.
Paul John, I hope this helps you feel prepared for your upcoming visit. If any other questions come up as you continue planning, please stop by and visit us again at planDisney.
May your phone stay charged, your photos turn out beautifully, and your Disneyland adventure be filled with unforgettable memories!
