Hi Patty!
Thank you so much for stopping by planDisney! Oooh, the current
California Resident Ticket Offer is such a great value! I'm so excited that you've been able to plan a few Disney days in July!
Yes, one of the new post-pandemic procedures is that in addition to purchasing a
Theme Park Admission Ticket, each Guest also needs a
Park Pass Reservation.
Park Pass Reservations sort of tell Mickey and his pals which park you and your crew will be playing in on which days.
Park Pass Reservations open for booking 120 days in advance and have been known to book up solid in the weeks leading up to specific Disney dates. I just checked the
Park Pass Reservation Calendar, and at the time of this answer, there are openings for both
Disneyland Park and
Disney California Adventure Park for the week of your visit, but do hurry to reserve your park passes as I'd hate for you to miss out!
Speaking of new Disneyland things, have you hEARd about the brand new
Disney Genie+ add-on? It's very similar to the MaxPass system of yesteryEAR where you can book
Lightning Lane attraction reservations right from your
Disneyland Mobile App. Plus, Disney Genie+ also grants access to download all of your
Disneyland PhotoPass on-ride and with-photographer photos taken the same day of the Genie+ purchase!
I hope that this helped to clEAR up your question, Patty! Be sure to follow the
official planDisney Instagram account where we're sharing all kinds of tips and tricks. And if you have any more Disneyland Resort vacation planning questions, We're All Ears!
