Hey there, hi there, Christian! Welcome to planDisney. You've brought your question to the right place and we are happy to help!
Oh, that's so exciting to hear you are heading to Disneyland Resort with your friends! I am happy to share that you can purchase tickets in person when you arrive at the parks at the Main Entrance Ticket Booth in the Esplanade. However, there is a chance that you could arrive and purchase tickets, but theme park ticket reservations be full for the day and then you not be able to enter the parks. Currently, you need both a ticket and a
theme park ticket reservation for park entry. If you must purchase tickets in person, I would keep an eye on the
Theme Park Reservation Availability Calendar to make sure reservations are still available.
You can easily purchase tickets from the
Disneyland website or the
Disneyland app which is even more convenient if you are already on your way. Tickets are done digitally now, so no need to print tickets. Just scan your ticket barcode at the entrance and you are ready for a day of magic! The Disneyland app is also where you will be able to purchase and manage
Disney Genie+ if you want to really make the most of your day.
Christian, thanks so much for stopping by! You've got a friend in us if you have any other planning questions!
