I really want to put my preferred name on my Disneyland ticket instead of my legal name, but I know I need to show my California ID to get into the park, so they won't match. What should I do?

Answer 1

Hiya, Hana!

Welcome to planDisney! We are DELIGHTED you stopped by, and we are excited to answer your question regarding your Disneyland Theme Park Tickets!

So, are you ready for some MAGICAL news?! I wanted to let you know that you are not required to have your correct name on your Disneyland Theme Park Ticket. Once you arrive at one of the Disneyland Theme Parks, a Cast Member will take a picture of you using a ticket. From there, the ticket will be linked to you because of the picture, not because of the name on the ticket. WOO HOO! Don't you just love happy endings?

If you have other questions or need further clarification about your Disneyland Theme Park Tickets, you can also call 714-781-4636 and speak to a Cast Member for additional assistance.

I hope this helps you in your planning process! As more and more TIGGER-ific information is shared about the phased reopening of the Disneyland Resort, I would highly recommend following Disneyland on all of its social media channels and subscribing to The Disney Parks Blog for the most up-to-date Disney information!

If you have other questions, please do not hesitate to ask! We are here to help in any way!

Have a MAGICAL day!
