Hi Marilyn, and welcome to planDisney! It’s always a great idea to plan ahead for where you’ll keep extra belongings during your Disney day, and I’d be happy to walk you through your locker rental options at the Disneyland Resort.
You’ll find
lockers in three convenient locations: inside
Disneyland, inside
Disney California Adventure, and in the Esplanade, the central area between the two park entrances. The Esplanade lockers are the most versatile, offering the widest variety of sizes. Options include Small (9.5” x 11” x 18”), Medium (12.5” x 17” x 18”), Large (15” x 16.6” x 22.6”), Extra-large (15” x 23” x 22.6”), and Jumbo (18” x 25” x 37”). Prices are set by size and currently range from about $7 to $15 per day, with unlimited access throughout the day. (However, please note that prices are always subject to change!)
If you’d like the convenience of storing items inside the parks, you’ll find locker stations on Main Street in Disneyland and Buena Vista Street in Disney California Adventure. These locations only carry the small and medium sizes, but they’re perfect for things like sweatshirts, snacks, or small souvenirs.
A quick reminder: lockers are for daytime use only, so overnight storage isn’t allowed. The Esplanade lockers are open during regular operating hours, and since they’re outside the gates, you’ll need to pass through security to reach them. There are three main checkpoints: Harbor Boulevard, Downtown Disney, and Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel. Cast Members at security may ask to take a look inside your bags, so keeping items easy to access will help the process move quickly.
Since you’re visiting during the holiday season, you’re in for something extra magical. Imagine dropping off your belongings in a locker, then heading straight to experience the twinkling lights of “it’s a small world” Holiday or the festive cheer of Haunted Mansion Holiday. Later, you can cap off the evening with “A Christmas Fantasy Parade” and the sparkling “Believe… in Holiday Magic” fireworks. Plus, you cannot forget about the snow drifting down on Main Street nightly.
I hope this helps you plan exactly where to stash your things so you can focus on the fun, Marilyn. If any other questions pop up, we’re always here at planDisney to help!
Wishing you a magical visit,
David
