It's opening day on Batuu

Today is the day that Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge opens to all Disneyland visitors, subject only to capacity limits during the park's regular operating hours. That means that all those folks who couldn't pay a visit during the "reservation period" that began with the land's May 31 opening, and are eager for their first look at this galaxy far, far away, will now have their chance to visit along with all those seeking return visits.

But, before any of us can grab a glass of blue milk or board the Millennium Falcon, it's important to know how to get into the land. Disney has applied many lessons learned during the first few weeks of operation, has created a new virtual queue and boarding pass system to regulate the flow of visitors into Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge, and implemented new advance reservation systems for the two hottest spots in the Black Spire Outpost, Savi's Workshop, and Oga's Cantina.

Read our article Batuu Boot Camp, Take 2 to prepare to visit Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge today and beyond. We cover everything you need to know about when and where to park, how to get a boarding pass and enter the land, and how to make a reservation to build a custom Light Saber or drink with DJ R3X. If you're reading this on your way to Disneyland for opening day, be sure to brush up before you arrive.

What will the grand opening day bring? Perhaps by the time you read this we'll already have an inkling of the opening day crowds, but at publication time it was still anyone's guess. The month-long reservation period will certainly have helped to draw down some of the opening day demand, with tens of thousands of people already having spent some hours inside the new land. We don't expect anything as absurd as the 10-hour lines that came with the opening of the latest ride at Universal Studios Florida, but it's entirely likely the wait for Millennium Falcon: Smuggler's Run will hit four hours or more.

Of greater interest to many fans will be the wait just to get into the land at all, and how crowded it feels on Batuu compared to during the preview days. Disney has asked that fans not arrive before 6:00 a.m. Monday morning, and MousePlanet will be at Disneyland to bring you updates from opening day. Be sure to follow along on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook, and also tag us on social media with your opening day experiences. We'll see you on Batuu!

Soarin' Over the Summer

The "special limited engagement" return of the original Soarin' Over California film to Disney California Adventure has been extended due to strong demand from fans, according to Disney. The company last week announced that Soarin' will remain in DCA through August 31.

The opening day film was originally scheduled to run June 1 through 30, temporarily replacing the Soarin' Around the World version that debuted in 2016 following the opening of Shanghai Disneyland.

Price hike for Premier passholders

Walt Disney World last week bumped the price of annual passports in advance of the August opening of the Florida version of Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. While the Disneyland Resort did not follow suit, Disneyland passholders who own the Premier Passport—valid at both Disneyland Resort and Florida's Walt Disney World Resort—saw the cost of that pass jump to $2,099.

Pixar Pals parking expected to open this week

While Disney officially says that the new Pixar Pals parking structure will not be ready to open with Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge this week, cast members say they are preparing for a Monday opening. On Sunday, Disney began using the new shared security checkpoints and tram loading area that will service both the Mickey and Friends and Pixar Pals parking structure, and the new structure gives every appearance of being ready to open.

The Pixar Pals parking structure is expected to open at the Disneyland Resort this week. Photo by Todd Pickering.

While this is a suggestion we've shared for years, it becomes even more important once the new structure opens: use your phone to take a photo of your parking location before you leave the level. If you've ever forgotten where you parked your car in the Mickey and Friends structure, you know how frustrating it can be to try to find it after a long, tiring day in the theme parks.

Cast members tell us that many guests can usually recall which level they parked on by color, but two structures now share the same color scheme. If all you can remember is that you parked on the "blue" level, you'll have to try to remember if you parked on Donald or Dory just to know which structure to search for your car.

2020 Grad Nite dates and details

Tickets for the 2020 Disneyland Resort Grad Nite at Disney California Adventure Park events go on sale to school groups this fall, and we now have the dates and details for the 2020 season so readers can plan trips accordingly.

There are 16 Grad Nite events scheduled for 2020 in May and June:

  • May 8, 9, 15, 16, 20, 26, 27, 29, and 30
  • June 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 12, and 13

Vacation planners should note that the Grad Nite private party runs from 9:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. DCA will close to "day guests" by 9:00 p.m. on event nights.

For 2020, Disney will again offer three ticket packages, from $89 to $179 per student:

  • "Option 1" ($89 per student) – provides admission to the after-hours Grad Nite private party in Disney California Adventure from 9:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. after that park closes to "day guests." This option is likely to be popular with local schools who want to attend Disney's Grad Nite on the actual evening of their graduation, after the ceremony.
  • "Option 2" ($119 per student) – includes access to Disney California Adventure during regular operating hours on the event day, plus access to the after-hours party. This ticket does not include park-hopper benefits.
  • "Option 3" ($179 per student) – provides park-hopper access to both Disneyland and Disney California Adventure parks during regular operating hours, and a private Grad Nite party in Disney California Adventure starting at 9:00 p.m.

Schools that book options 2 or 3 can still choose to arrive whenever they wish during their Grad Nite event. Some arrive right at park opening to maximize their time, while others arrive later due to travel time or other activities. As a result, the parks grow increasingly crowded as the day goes on and more students arrive.

Of course, Grad Nites are not the only times that the Disneyland Resort is crowded with student groups. The last weeks of school are popular times for class trips, something that Disney actively encourages through special pricing and activities for school groups. Those visits won't appear on any calendar, but are a fact of Disney life during this season.

With so many schools on year-round calendars now, you should consider the period between March and mid-June as one big, hazy spring-break-into-graduation season. So while the Grad Nite calendar can give you an idea of when the most high school seniors will be on property, there is no way to know when a school district from central California is sending its ninth graders for their own promotion celebration.

Interested school groups can visit the Grad Nite web site for more information.

Discounted Disneyland Resort tickets available to 2019 CHOC Walk participants

The 2019 CHOC Walk is coming up on Sunday, August 11 at the Disneyland Resort, and we have the much-anticipated details of the discounted Disneyland Resort tickets available to those who meet a minimum fundraising goal.

In addition to helping support an outstanding local charity, one of the benefits of participating in the CHOC Walk is the opportunity to purchase discounted Disneyland tickets to use in the weeks following the walk. Walkers who meet the $85 fund-raising minimum can purchase a 1-Day 1-Park Disneyland Resort ticket for $67 (reg. $122 to 149), or a Disneyland Resort 1-Day Park Hopper ticket for $93 (reg. $172 to 199). This is a discount of up to $106 off the ticket booth price of these tickets.

The tickets can ONLY be purchased by registered walkers in person at the Disneyland Resort on the day of the walk. You must present your CHOC Walk in the Park wristband to a Disneyland Resort Ticket Booth to purchase the discounted tickets.

NEW FOR 2019: A maximum of one ticket may be purchased per wristband.

The tickets are valid starting Sunday, August 11, 2019, and must be used by September 10, 2019. The tickets are not valid August 31 through September 3, 2019.

Come CHOC Walk with Team MousePlanet

Registration is now officially open for the 2019 CHOC Walk in the Park, to be held Sunday, August 11 at the Disneyland Resort.

Team MousePlanet will return for our 12th consecutive walk to support Children's Hospital Orange County. Thanks to the efforts and generosity of our readers, Team MousePlanet has raised over $75,000 for CHOC since 2008. We invite MousePlanet readers, friends, and family members to join our team for the event.

When you register for the event, you can opt to donate directly or fund-raise the registration fee.

  • Early Registration – walkers can opt to pay nothing at the time of registration, but must donate or fund-raise a minimum of $85 by Monday, July 29 to participate.
  • Late Registration – walkers pay a fee of $95 at the time of registration to secure their place at the walk.

Why Join Team MousePlanet?

COMMUNITY! Walking with Team MousePlanet is a great way to spend a morning with MousePlanet staff and readers, all while raising money for a great cause. Stay after the walk and enjoy Disneyland with your fellow Disney fans.

CONVENIENCE! If you register during Early registration and meet your fundraising goal, Team MousePlanet will handle check-in for you. No need to drive to check in the week before the walk to collect your wristband and T-shirt. You need only meet us in Downtown Disney the morning of the walk to collect your goodies, then head right into Disneyland to start the walk.

If you prefer to have your shirt and wristband before the walk (some people like to personalize them), there is an option to have those items shipped to you.

The deadline to join Team MousePlanet and meet the $85 fundraising requirement in order for us to handle check-in for walkers is Monday, August 5. We still welcome those who register after this date, but they must handle their own check-in.

In addition to helping support an outstanding local charity, one of the benefits of participating in the CHOC Walk is the opportunity to purchase specially priced Disneyland tickets to use in the weeks after the walk. CHOC has not yet announced the dates or details this promotion for 2018; we will share details as soon as we know them.

Are you ready to CHOC Walk with Team MousePlanet? It's easy to sign up—just visit our team page.

This and That...

...For the first time since the new Disney Flex Passport went on sale in May, a "reservation required" day has reached capacity. At press time, Flex passport holders who want to visit the Disneyland Resort on July 4 could still make a reservation for Disney California Adventure, but all available reservations for Disneyland have been claimed.

...We reported last week that Disneyland's Main Street Cinema, an original 1955 attraction that features six vintage animated shorts on six screens, had been converted into a very small gift shop by the addition of several displays of Disney souvenirs. The trial lasted under a week, and the space has now returned to normal operation.

...Disneyland Resort annual passholders can receive a 10% discount at Clarabelle's and Gibson Girl Ice Cream Parlor by using the Disneyland app to place a mobile order. These two locations do not normally offer an AP discount. The offer runs through June 30.

…The MousePlanet Newsletter is here! The newsletter contains a recap of the week's articles (in case you miss a day), news that may have developed since the weekly Updates were published, and tips about what's happening at the Disney theme parks for the coming weekend. We'll also include a fun bonus, such as an Eye Spy or a trivia question. To subscribe to our free newsletter, just enter your email in the box below.

We also recommend checking the convention calendar at the Anaheim/Orange County Visitor and Convention Bureau website. When looking at that site, remember to note both the number of people and the number of rooms resulting from each convention. A gathering of 25,000 people booking few room nights (indicating most will be driving in to the area for their meeting) can impact traffic around the resort much more than a crowd of 25,000 staying in area hotels. Of course, that second group is going to make finding a hotel room more difficult (and possibly more expensive), so it's best to book your own room as early as possible if you see that a big convention is in town during your trip.

Notable events at parks and attractions around Southern California. If you know of an event that should be listed here, please send us an e-mail.


Current Discounts and Promotions

Disneyland prices as of January 6, 2019.

Note: MousePlanet does not edit past Updates to reflect price increases; for up-to-date prices, check the most recent Disneyland Resort Update. Several current promotions offer discounted admission to the Disneyland Resort. For your convenience, we have grouped the discount offers based on the number of days the tickets are valid. Check out the category that best matches the amount of time you plan to spend at the resort, and pick the offer that works best for you. And keep those tips coming—let us know if you find a better or different offer, so we can share it with other readers!

This first section is a list of discounts on ticket-only purchases. Though it has become more common in recent years, Disneyland tickets are rarely offered at deep discounts unless you are a resident of Southern California or Northern Mexico. For residents outside that area, the best discounts available tend to be simple advance purchase discounts. If you know of any additional discounts, offers, promotions, or contests that should be listed in this section, drop us a line. Note, we are no longer listing offers from the Anaheim-Orange County Visitor & Convention Bureau, as their convenience fee negates any savings.

Don't get scammed! Never buy tickets from an unofficial or secondary outlet, such as through eBay or Craigslist. Never rent or purchase tickets from people approaching you outside the gates stating they have remaining days or leftover tickets. This practice is against the terms of use for Disneyland admission, and may result in denial of entry. It is also common for criminals to shoplift inactivated Disney theme park tickets from supermarkets to resell them. There is no way to determine if these tickets are valid until you try to use them to enter the parks. Only purchase Disney theme park tickets directly from Disney, an authorized seller, or travel agency like MousePlanet travel partner Get Away Today.

Additional Discounts

Did we miss an offer? If you know of an authorized discount on Disneyland Resort tickets, standing offers for Annual Passholders from non-Disney vendors, or other promotions which might interest our readers, please drop us a note!

New! Just click the category you want to expand (or close).

Everyone

Purchase with purchase offers – Disneyland Resort shops frequently offer a reduced-price souvenir (often a tote bag, watch, or blanket) with a qualifying minimum purchase. These are offered at Disney-operated stores only, and selection may vary by location.

Disney usually allows customers to purchase more than one of the offers in a qualifying transaction, so if you spend $40 or more you can buy both items currently available if you wish. If you're a passholder, the minimum purchase is calculated after your discount, and your discount does not apply to the promotional item.


Character dining vouchers – Disneyland is no longer offering tickets or vouchers to be pre-purchased for Character Dining. You may still make reservations 60 days in advance with payment due at the restaurant.

Annual Passholders

Disneyland Resort merchandise – Disneyland has once again extended the additional 20% merchandise discount offered to Disney Signature Plus, Disney Signature, Disney Premier, and Premium annual passholders, this time through December 31, 2019.

Visit our Annual Passholders Blockout Dates page to see more dates. You can see future calendar schedules at Disneyland. As always, specifics are subject to change without notice (or occasionally, without us noticing) so when information conflicts between what is presented here and that presented by Disney, it is best to assume Disney's information is correct.

Visit the Park Hours section of our Disneyland Park guide for additional details about Magic Morning and Toontown Morning Madness, including available attractions. Entertainment schedule: Go directly to the Disneyland Resort schedule for this week at Disneyland.com here.

The Seasons calendar is published on the Disneyland website for the next eight to 11 months.
