Hi Peggy! Thanks for visiting planDisney.
The good news is that all you'll need to enjoy the night's festivities in the Happiest Place on Earth on New Year's Eve is a valid
admission ticket and theme park reservation for December 31. No special event ticket necessary! In addition to all the magic of the
Holidays at the Disneyland Resort, enjoy the night's celebrations, which in the past have included dance parties and fireworks, depending on weather. I'd consider making a special
dining reservation too. Typically, reservations open 60 days before your park day. Having just made my dining reservations for mid-November, I know those dates can come up fast!
How do you want to ring in the new year? If you're looking for a
Disneyland Resort Hotel Package, which combines your park admission with your stay in one of the fabulous
Disneyland Resort Hotels for increased value, book as soon as possible! New Year's Eve is one of the most popular days of the year, so regardless of whether you book a Vacation Package or only purchase admission tickets, you don't want to miss out on the fun. It is possible for popular days, hotels, and parks to fill up! Availability isn't guaranteed.
I'd recommend the Disneyland Hotel. It has a swanky retro vibe that would be a lot of fun for New Year's, but Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa is always beautifully decorated for the holidays. You can't go wrong with any of your choices! They all offer unbeatable access to the parks, great dining choices, and magical theming.
Have a magical day!
