Welcome to planDisney, Beau, and thanks for stopping by with this great question. We're all planners here, so you're among friends! I love visiting Disney parks in January because it gives me something to look forward to after the hustle and bustle of the holidays. And if you're planning to visit
Disneyland Resort in early January, you might be able to see some of the holiday decor. Much of the decorations stay up until around January 8 or 9, so that would be a festive bonus!
Beau, I know you're anxious to book your resort stay at
Disney's Paradise Pier Hotel, but as of now, bookings are only available through the end of December 2023. In years past, bookings for January have typically opened up in the late summer months. I'd suggest that you keep an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog for any official announcements about 2024 bookings. I'll be doing the same!
When you book your stay at a Disneyland Resort Hotel, you can take advantage of
early theme park entry. Just be sure you have a
Theme Park Ticket and a
Theme Park Reservation, and you'll be allowed to enter the theme parks 30 minutes earlier than the general public. Just imagine how much you can experience in that half hour! Of course, I'd head straight to
Space Mountain and ride it over and over again. I may or may not have done exactly that during my last stay!
I'm sending loads of pixie dust so you can book the stay of your dreams soon, Beau.
Please stop by planDisney anytime!
Magic awaits,
Elaine
