We’ve got MASSIVE news out of Disneyland Resort. It’s news we’ve been waiting on for literally YEARS, and now it’s finally time.
Ever since the parks reopened after the 2020 closures, there have been restrictions on when guests have been allowed to park hop between Disneyland and Disney California Adventure. Finally, after 5+ years, those restrictions are FINALLY going away!
On the Disney Travel Agent website, it’s now been posted that, “Beginning June 9th, 2026, Disneyland Resort guests with Park Hopper tickets and Magic Key passes will be able to cross between parks without having to wait until 11 AM, subject to availability of the applicable park.”
Now, it’s important to note that guests will still need to make a park pass reservation and indicate which park they plan on starting in, so Disney can get an idea of how many people will be in each park at the start of the day. However, this rule going away will allow a lot more flexibility for those looking to experience both parks in one day. Especially for locals who may want to spend some time in the parks on a whim!
