Overview
- Disneyland Resort announced on May 19 that beginning June 9, 2026 guests with Park Hopper tickets and Magic Key passes may move between Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure at any time during the day, subject to park availability.
- The resort will also remove the requirement that guests physically tap into their originally reserved park before hopping, though guests must still select a starting park when making a reservation.
- Park reservations, Magic Key blockout dates and capacity limits remain in place, so entry to a second park can be denied on days a park reaches capacity.
- Most outlets and Disney’s Travel Agent posting list June 9 as the effective date, while one outlet initially reported June 6, creating a minor discrepancy in early coverage.
- The change restores pre-pandemic touring flexibility that helps locals and short visits and may shift crowd flow across the day, following a similar loosening of park-hopping rules at Walt Disney World in early 2024.
