Christmas at DLR

[<3Mickey]

We are trying to go to disneyland on Christmas this year (2010) -
anyone have any insight as to what time they usually close the turnstiles? I've heard 11:30 but was wondering if anyone has heard or experienced earlier than that.

THANKS!!!

I am not usre if you are talking about am or pm.
For the am, the park closes whenever it reaches capacity, not a set time.
For the pm, if the park is not at capacity, I have been admitted to the turnstiles at 11:50 pm. 10 minutes before closing.

If you are going on Dec 25th, do yourself a favor and arrive at 7 am if you want to get it for sure.

I was talking about the a.m. - my sister is groaning about not having a Christmas morning if we go at 7 a.m. so I am trying to see how late we can push it. Are we out of luck if we arrive at 10? I am nervous to find out! We do have world of color/trattoria dining reservations though, so if all else fails, we can probably get into DCA and have some fun there. Thanks for your response!

You might be out of luck at 10. Even if you get in, it will be packed.

I'm glad to hear that DCA is an option for you. When you get to the resort, the signs at the parking structure will let you know if DL has reached capacity.
Enjoy your dinner/WoC. I think it is a great way to spend Xmas!

There are lots of digital reader signs on the streets and freeway offramps around Disneyland that indicate if Disneyland has reached capacity and stopped letting people in. If you see this, you know you're too late...
