    Hello I’m Juliana a California resident wanting a one day pass to California Adventure park on February 17,2026 but I’m not sure how to obtain that.

    Hi there, Juliana! Thank you for stopping by planDisney. Disney California Adventure (DCA) is my favorite park! I’d be happy to help clarify this for you.

    I must say, you could save more by purchasing the CA Resident 3-Day Park Hopper Ticket, but purchasing a one-day pass is always an option! I’ve found that the easiest way to purchase theme park tickets is through the Disneyland mobile app. Here’s how:
    1. Tap the (+) sign in the bottom center.
    2. Tap “Buy Tickets and Passes.”
    3. Tap “Theme Park Tickets.”
    4. Tap “Standard Theme Park Ticket.”
    5. Select the number of days you wish to attend.
    6. Select the number of tickets.
    7. Select the One Park Per Day ticket type.
    8. Choose the day you plan to visit.
    9. Choose any add-ons.
    10. Tap “Checkout.”
    From here, you will have your one-day ticket and be ready to hit the park!

    Bonus Tip: You will be visiting DCA just in time to catch the Lunar New Year Festival! Check out the foodie guide to plan your eats for the day. Also, keep an eye on the Disneyland mobile app for up-to-date availability and showtimes for special shows like Mulan's Lunar New Year Procession and Hurry Home – A Lunar New Year Celebration.

    Juliana, I hope this helps and that you have a wonderful time during your upcoming adventure to DCA!

    Sending you faith, trust, and pixie dust,
