New Disneyland ticket deals, including kids’ tickets as low as $50, could save families hundreds of dollars on multiday visits.
Here’s what you need to know about the best ticket deals, new experiences and events coming to Disneyland in Anaheim, California, in 2026.
The best Disneyland ticket deals for 2026 so far
Disney announced several promotional offers for 2026 visits on Dec. 2, 2025, including discounts for kids, California residents and travelers staying at Disney hotels.
Kids’ ticket discount
Starting Jan. 21, 2026, families can purchase heavily discounted Park Hopper tickets for children ages 3-9 for visits between May 22 and Sept. 7, 2026, starting at $50 per child for a one-day ticket.
That’s a massive deal considering that one-day Park Hopper tickets for kids usually start at $189 on those days. Disneyland ran a similar promotion in 2025, but it applied only to one-park tickets, not Park Hopper tickets, making this offer more valuable. It also didn’t run during the summer, which is one of the most popular times for families to visit.
To use one of these discounted tickets, you must have a theme park reservation, as you would with all types of Disneyland tickets. But keep in mind that park reservations for these discounted tickets are limited and allocated separately from regular tickets.
Check reservation availability before purchasing tickets, and make reservations as early as possible.
California resident discount
If you live in California (ZIP codes 90000-96199), you can save more than 50% on multiday tickets for visits from Jan. 1 to May 21, 2026. Tickets go on sale Dec. 3, 2025. Here are the deals:
-
Three-day Park Hopper: Starting at $249 ($83 per day).
-
Three-day Park Hopper with Lightning Lane Multi Pass: Starting at $351 ($117 per day).
You’ll need a valid government-issued photo ID showing your California address to enter the park using one of these tickets. These tickets expire May 21, 2026, and — unlike other multiday tickets that must be used in a tight window — these can be used on nonconsecutive days during the promotional period.
This deal is also more generous than what we’ve seen in the past. In 2025, Disneyland offered a similar promotion, but it was limited to Southern California residents.
Hotel savings
-
Early 2026 (Stays from Jan. 1 to May 21): Save up to 25% on stays of three nights or more. Book between Dec. 3, 2025, and May 7, 2026.
-
Summer 2026 (Stays from May 22 to Sept. 7): Save up to 25% on stays of four nights or more. Book between Jan. 21, 2026, and Aug. 25, 2026.
These offers apply to most room types except some concierge rooms and suites.
What’s new at Disneyland in 2026
Among the top new additions coming to the parks in 2026 are:

On March 22, 2026, the Fantasyland Theatre will transform into a tribute to the Disney+ animated series “Bluey,” which is popular with kids 7 and under. There, you’ll find live appearances by Bluey and Bingo, interactive games like Keepy Uppy, a life-sized Gnome Village and Fairy Garden, as well as themed food.

Starting May 22, 2026, coinciding with the theatrical release of “The Mandalorian and Grogu” film, the Millennium Falcon attraction will feature a new story revolving around characters from the film. Millennium Falcon is a simulator attraction located in the relatively new Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge land in Disneyland.
Soarin’ gets an America-focused update
In honor of America’s 250th anniversary, the Soarin’ attraction — a flight simulator in Disney California Adventure — will debut “Soarin’ Across America” on July 2, 2026. This new video will feature landscapes and cityscapes from across the U.S. Previous iterations of the ride included a California-themed flight and an around-the-world flight.

The Disneyland Resort’s 70th anniversary festivities, which began in May 2025, will wrap up on Aug. 9, 2026. Before that date, you can still see the “World of Color Happiness!” water-and-light show in Disney California Adventure and try festive food, like purple ube churros.
Downtown Disney additions
Several new dining and retail options are scheduled to open in 2026, including:
-
Earl of Sandwich, a restaurant known for its relatively affordable (by Disney standards) sandwiches and salads.
-
Gordon Ramsay at The Carnaby, a Brit pop-themed gastropub by the famous chef.
-
Lululemon, an athletic apparel retailer.
