Disneyland Demolishes Four Original Entrance Ticket Booths

The removal clears the way for a planned pedestrian bridge linking the esplanade to a 6,000-space parking structure with EV chargers, rideshare zones, security screening.

Overview

  • Crews finished tearing down the four original ticket booths on Monday, leaving two remaining in-person booths and the Lost & Found office available for walk-up ticket sales.
  • The cleared site is intended for a pedestrian bridge that will connect the esplanade to a new parking and transportation hub that Disney broke ground on days earlier.
  • Company filings and local reports say the planned garage will hold roughly 6,000 parking spaces with about 302 EV charging stations plus dedicated areas for shuttles, rideshare pickup, security, and access off Disney Way.
  • Disney frames the project as part of DisneylandForward to handle higher attendance from upcoming additions such as new Avengers Campus rides, a Coco attraction on Pixar Pier, a Tomorrowland reimagining, and an Avatar-themed land.
  • Disney has not released a full construction schedule or public plans for preserving the removed booths’ materials or features, so the timing for building the bridge and final design details remain unclear.
