    I need to transfer an unused ticket to someone else. How do I update the name on a ticket?

    Hi Lauren! Thanks for visiting planDisney.

    Unfortunately, you can't change a name on an admission ticket on the Disneyland mobile app or on your desktop. That's only something a Cast Member can do. You'll need to call the Tickets phone line to see if a friendly Cast Member can assist in changing the name on the ticket. If your ticket is eligible for a name change, it should be a quick process. I hope that's good news, since your visit is just a hop, skip, and a jump away.

    Does your ticket type require that you present a government-issued photo ID? If not, with a valid, unused standard ticket, the name won't matter at entry. The Guest will be associated with the ticket after scanning into the park for the day, regardless of the name, making it nontransferable. So, depending on your ticket type, a name change might be unnecessary. Some Guests prefer for the name to match, however, so feel free to call the Tickets phone line if it gives you peace of mind. It's up to you!

    Have you checked out the Daily Events Schedule for your visit? It's the most updated resource for your park day. Interested in grabbing the perfect spot to enjoy Paint the Night in Disneyland Park? Or maybe you want to catch World of Color Happiness! in Paradise Gardens Park at Disney California Adventure Park? You'll find all the times listed for your favorite shows, parades, fireworks, and more on the schedule. While these details are subject to change, it's a great way to sketch out your plan for the day, so you don't skip any must-do activities.

    I hope you have a fantastic time!
