    Will my son need a ticket if he turns 3 on the 3rd day of our Disneyland trip?

    Hi Stephanie! Welcome to planDisney! Thanks so much for stopping by to send us your question!

    I'm so glad you asked this question. Your little Mouseketeer won't need a Theme Park Ticket or a Theme Park Reservation while he is two years old. However, he will need a Theme Park Ticket and Theme Park Reservation on the day he turns three, and for each day that follows. 

    Celebrating a birthday at The Happiest Place on Earth makes it even more magical! Be sure to pick up a complimentary birthday button on the big day! You can find the button at the Emporium or at City Hall on Main Street, U.S.A. in Disneyland Park or at Guest Services in Disney California Adventure Park. If you would like to have a photo taken to commemorate the special celebration, you can use the Disneyland Mobile App to find Disney PhotoPass photographers at either theme park. When in the app, tap the location icon at the bottom, and then at the top, slide to the left to find the Disney PhotoPass icon. 

    If you have more questions before you arrive, please feel free to send them to us at planDisney. We're excited for you and your family to celebrate with us, and we would love to help!

    Wishing you magic,
    Lisa
