    What proof of residence do I have to bring to buy California residents ticket? And do you need one proof per family?

    Hello, Paulette! Welcome to planDisney. I’m so glad you’re utilizing the California Resident 3-Day Park Hopper Ticket. It’s an amazing deal and a great opportunity to visit the parks for triple the magic. Let’s make sure we have all the most important details clarified before you make your purchase!

    This offer is only available to guests who live within ZIP codes 90000-96199. You will need to prove your residency with a valid government-issued photo ID when you purchase the tickets and, especially, when you arrive at the gate. It’s important that each person using a ticket can show their government-issued ID that has their California address and their photo on it. This is not a one ID per family situation. Minors typically are not asked to show an ID. If you’re concerned about a cast member calling a minor’s age into question, bring along a copy of their birth certificate, just to be on the safe side.

    I also want to point out that park reservations are required, so make sure that you check the Theme Park Reservation Availability page for the dates you hope to visit before purchasing your tickets. Park reservations sometimes fill up quickly, so schedule your dates right away. Each of your three days can be spread out, but they must all be used by May 21, 2026. I’d also recommend brushing up on the offer details posted on the Disneyland website.

    Paulette, you and your family are going to have a wonderful time at the Disneyland Resort. I’m really looking forward to the Lunar New Year celebration from January 23rd to February 22nd and the Food and Wine Festival from March 6 to April 27. I hope you’re able to schedule days during those times. Check out Disney Parks Blog for all of the up-to-date festival info and Foodie Guides.

    Don’t hesitate to bring more questions to us at planDisney. Have a magical day!
