Disneyland Resort 2026 Vacations Open & New Hotel Perks
Book 2026 Disneyland Resort Vacations Now
Walt Disney Travel Company vacation packages and Disneyland Resort Hotel stays for 2026 are now open for booking! Packages are available for arrivals from January 1 through December 31, 2026. Reservations can be made online or by phone, but note that the start of a trip cannot be more than 499 days away.
New Hotel Guest Benefit Starting January 2026
Beginning January 5, 2026, guests staying at Disneyland Resort Hotels will receive one Lightning Lane entry per stay for a Multi Pass-eligible attraction of their choice—no early mornings required! This new benefit replaces the Early Entry program, allowing for more flexibility while still offering quicker access to top attractions.
Please note: This Lightning Lane perk does not include Single Pass-only rides like Radiator Springs Racers or Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance. Additional details will be announced closer to the benefit’s rollout.
Pixar Place Hotel Entrance Update
Also starting January 5, 2026, the dedicated entrance to Disney California Adventure from Pixar Place Hotel will be closed. Guests can instead access the park through the entrance located at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa as part of ongoing enhancements to the arrival experience.
