    Hi! I have park hopper passes starting at Disneyland for 11am, but I wanted to schedule breakfast with Minnie and Friends at the Plaza at 10am. Will I be allowed to enter the park early? Thanks!

    Hey there Giovina,

    Welcome to planDisney and thanks so much for stopping by with this question! You are clearly a pro planner already with locking in a brunch reservation at Minnie & Friends at Plaza Inn is a great way to start a day at Disneyland!

    Currently, you do need theme park reservations for each day you plan to visit the parks. If you purchase the Park Hopper option then it gives you the flexibility to switch between parks (based on park capacity) starting at 11:00 AM each day of your visit.

    It sounds like you might be currently planning to start your day in Disney California Adventure Park and want to switch over to Disneyland Park for your Plaza Inn brunch. If that is your plan, my recommendation would be to plan for a reservation at 11:00 AM or later since that is the start time for park hopping at this time.

    Alternatively, you could switch your park reservation on the My Plans hub or in the Disneyland Resort mobile app to instead start your day at Disneyland Park instead so you can easily make an earlier brunch time! These park reservations are fairly flexible so that might actually be the easier option.

    In the meantime, keep an eye on the Disney Parks Blog for more updates on all the fun things happening around the Disneyland Resort this summer. There are so many new things to experience like the new Mandalorian and Grogu mission at Millennium Falcon: Smuggler's Run and  "Bluey's Best Day Ever!"

    Thanks again for stopping by with your question, Giovina! I hope you have a fun time on your trip to the Happiest Place on Earth.

    Have a Magical Day,
    Greg
