When Walt Disney World reopens, guests will now need to have to have a valid admission ticket and a Disney Park pass reservation to enter a theme park. Disney’s Park Pass System went live this morning, and guests have been scrambling all day to claim their reservations.
According to the availability calendar from Walt Disney World, Disney’s Hollywood Studios is the first Disney World theme park to reach capacity with the new Disney Park Pass reservation system.
You can view the calendar and availability HERE before you purchase park tickets.
The calendar shows no Park Pass availability for Disney’s Hollywood Studios on July 15th, which is that park’s opening day.
The following day, July 16th, shows no availability for Hollywood Studios either.

This morning, the Disney Park Pass system went live and was plagued with issues. Guests were greeted with pink castles, white screens, and spinning orbits!
Just a moment….Hang in there….and images of pink Castles are the stuff of my disney nightmares right now
I spent three hours trying to access the system with no luck! I am fortunate to have some great friends who were able to snag some reservations for me!
There were many reports of guests spending as long as seven hours trying to get park reservations!

No. Disney never announced. I'm sure it will be quite low initially

I have resort reservations with an annual pass. It will only let me reserve 3 days instead of length if stay. Do you know if anyone else has experienced this?

I was able to reserve length of stay, but sometimes had to tap the date multiple times.

I started at 7am when disney stated it would be only to find out that supposedly it had bee. Up since before 5am. I think that is terribly unfair to everyone. I sat for at least 7hrs going back and forth on different electronics and finally go in through your link that you posted on my android phone. It was very stressful today the least and so very opposite of what planning a disney vacation should be.....I have yet to be able to get a disney cast member on the phone since apparently my resort that I booked over a year ago isnt opening til october.....although I was told multiple times in the last 2 weeks by cast members that ALL resorts would be opening

Glad that we could help with the link that we found could help. It certainly was a stressful day.

Our vacation isn’t until the end of September/beginning of October. I waited until 1:45 (CST) to log into the system. I waited in the virtual waiting room for about 8 minutes, and was completely finished, with all our park reservations within 10 minutes of starting.

Awesome! I think most people were most concerned about the re-opening period, so there was mass congestion and they didn't even have the system completed early this morning.
