How much will a Disneyland ticket cost when it reopens on April 30th?

[the.dreamfinder]

For simplicity, this poll assumes, like WDW, that there will be no park hopping at first when Disneyland and Disney California Adventure reopen. So what are your guesses for what a one day-one park adult ticket will cost?

 

[drizgirl]

I predict a higher price for DL than DCA.

 

[DrAlice]

We're assuming no parkhopping option, right? Those prices are just for one park, one day?

 

[fctiger]

What's freaking sad is the cheapest option is $120 lol. That's just insane.

 

[Figments Friend]

I voted $175, as it seems the valid choice from a marketing standpoint.

Just like the famous '$19.95 price', to keep consumers from seeing '$20.00'....$175 seems in line to avoid the visual of $200.

It's also 'justified' in consumers minds since many just paid $75 for the shopping / dining Festival over at DCA.
$100 more and you can do that at Disneyland too....and maybe a few other things as well.

I think Chapek said there would be park hopping. Could indicate a higher base admission price if both parks are automatically included.

California won't allow it.

Each park has a certain capacity.

The state requires that ticket sells be made online in advance, to regulate that capacity.

Disneyland has a higher capacity than DCA.

I'd say 175 as well. With the limited capacity it's probably what they'll end up charging. They will have a lot of front loaded demand at the very least for the first month and can adjust accordingly.

I think it's important to understand that Disneyland isn't the only thing that's reopening next month. Disney will have competition so they can't get TOO aggressive. However 175 a ticket at opening per park and maybe a 300 dollar reopening special event day ticket is something I see them doing.

Not to defend them, but that's not far off of what it was before.

I mean it's crazy it got this high in the first place. At most these tickets should be around $80-90 tops. You look at every international Disney theme park worldwide, they are all under $100. Tokyo Disney Resort are nearly half the price for their peak period ticket and you get a much better quality experience all around. It cost around $85 to go to TDR on the weekends and holidays and that is their most expensive ticket. It's sickening DCA cost more to enter than TDS lol. Just bonkers.

$175!? No way. At those prices they better not be kicking us out of the park at 4pm and letting group B in. I’m saying full day tickets, no park hopping max $125

Given that WDW opened up with normal pricing (I believe) and reduced capacity, I want to believe that Disney will follow suit out here. Call me optimistic...or naive.

For what it's worth, the LA times is reporting this -

"Disney and Universal Studios Hollywood officials said single-day ticket prices at their parks are expected to be in line with last year’s prices."

Disneyland and other California theme parks, reopening in just weeks, scramble to get ready

Theme parks must prepare rides for daily use, rehire and train workers, and adopt pandemic safety protocols that alter how attractions will operate.

Yep.
When WDW reopened, admission pricing was the same as it was pre-closing.
Even with much shorter hours, no live entertainment / shows , lots of restrictions, no park hopping, and some Attractions / dining closed WDW still charged a full days admission.

People paid it regardless of the limited offerings.
Some felt it was worth it due to the low crowd levels during the first couple of months of operation.

I fully expect Disneyland to follow a similar pattern.
Park admission, even with reduced hours / capacity and no live entertainment / shows will be full price.
But unlike WDW, the first couple of months of operation won't be a ghost town....but instead hit the restricted capacity levels daily I'm willing to bet.
People have really missed Disneyland Park!

Reduced capacity is a double edged sword when you realize how it also accounts for "distanced" ride vehicles and reduced capacity in buildings.

I fully expect lines to be big even with reduced capacity, based on the current rules.

 

[Kram Sacul]

Too much for too little.

 

[HairyChest]

No park hopping. $139 weekends. $120 weekdays.

Multiple ticket vendors have been updating today. This was on Ares travel (I’ve been stalking them since the announcement ofopening, and the site previously had “tickets unavailable” where all of this current info is. It Also appears Disneyland is updating their “special deals” page right now, so we will get SoCal special pricing.
