Hiya, Rob!
I can see that you are hoping to visit the Happiest Place on Earth very soon! The first step to a magical day is securing those theme park tickets, so let's dive right into your question.
You can purchase theme park tickets to Disneyland Park or California Adventure Park on the Disneyland website by heading to the "Parks & Tickets" tab along the top navigation bar. The process is pretty intuitive and provides lots of information along the way, but let's take a look at it together. Select "
Buy Theme Park Tickets" from the drop-down menu, and you will be able to select your type of ticket, the number of days, and the number of Guests. Additionally, you will have the option to choose a 1-Park Per Day ticket or upgrade to a Park Hopper, which would allow you to bounce between both parks after 11:00 AM on your park day. The next step will be to select your date, and you will note that prices change based on day of the week, time of year, and other factors. You'll then be asked to choose a park, or if you upgraded to a Park Hopper, a "starting park" where you can spend your time between opening and 11:00 AM when you can start to hop.
Now that the basics are in place, you have two final choices. You can include
Lightning Lane Multi Pass with your ticket, which gives you access to shorter queues on select attractions throughout your day. Additionally, you can add parking. I usually wait to pay for parking onsite once I arrive, but I do like to have a Lightning Lane Multi Pass in my pocket! It's the best way to maximize your time and the magic, plus included with the pass are unlimited digital downloads of all the
Disney PhotoPass photos you take that day, so you can capture the moment! Follow the rest of the checkout process to secure your ticket, and you should be good to go! You will likely hear about needing a theme park reservation. The good news is that when you select a date during the checkout process, this is essentially making the reservation. As long as your purchase goes through, you should be all set. If you'd like to speak to a Cast Member directly to help you at any step of the way, I'd recommend reaching out to
Guest Services.
If you are local to Southern California, you may want to consider the
Disneyland Anniversary Ticket Offer in honor of the 70th Anniversary. This is a fabulous offer, if you ask me! It is available as a 3-day or 4-day, specially-priced ticket, and the best part is that you can use them anytime between now and August 14th, 2025, pending theme park reservation availability. With so much in store for the
70th Anniversary, you can really spread out the magic and take full advantage of all there is to offer!
Rob, I sure hope this helped find you a path to the magic. If you have any more questions, please feel free to stop by
