Basics of Disneyland Tickets
To enter Disneyland you obviously need a ticket. At Disneyland tickets are called passports. Single day, multi-day and annual passports are available for varying prices depending on your situation. Complimentary entry is also available for certain Cast Members (Disney's name for employees) and their friends and family in certain situations. So if you are or know a Cast Member, you may want to check with them.

Tip: Purchase your tickets before you get to Disneyland using one of the methods shown below. You'll save yourself alot of time by not having to wait when you arrive at the park.

Purchasing Passports
When purchasing tickets at the Main Gate, Disneyland accepts cash, checks, traveler's checks, American Express, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, the Disney card and the JCB Credit Card. Tickets can also be purchased at any Disney Store though you should allow extra time as they may not be a stocked item. Tickets can also be purchase via mail order at:

Disneyland
Ticket Mail Order Services
