New: Disney’s Early Entry Will See Big Changes in 2024

Early Entry is a great perk, but big changes are coming soon. How will this affect your next Disney trip?

Early Theme Park Entry

Early Theme Park Entry gives resort guests the first chance to enjoy select attractions at EVERY theme park, EVERY day. The parks open 30 minutes early for guests staying at Disney World Resorts, at other select hotels at Walt Disney World, and also at Disneyland Resort Hotels as well. 

These Early Theme Park Entry times are helpful for Guests who are still on the fence about using the Disney Genie+ system. This allows Guests to enjoy select attractions with shorter wait times.

Big Changes Coming

Many Disney guests find this an added benefit to staying on property, but unfortunately, big changes are announced for this resort perk for 2024.

Currently, Disneyland Resort guests can enjoy Early Theme Park Entry at both Disneyland and California Adventure every day. Now Disneyland announces changes coming to this perk that can greatly change your park plans for 2024.

Starting on January 20, 2024, the early entry benefit will be updated, and guests staying at one of the Disneyland Resort hotels may take advantage of this 30-minute Early Theme Park entry on select days.

Each day Disneyland Park or Disney California Adventure Park will be open early. Guests are directed to the theme park calendar to see which park offers Early Theme Park Entry each day.

Each day Disneyland Park or Disney California Adventure Park will be open early starting on January 20, 2024.
