Imagine eliminating long standby lines and choosing what to enjoy next—all from the convenience of your phone. With Virtual Queues, you can join the line for select attractions right from the Disneyland app, leaving room in your day for fun, dining, or unexpected magic—as you wait, not while you wait.

When your little ones can’t ride—or just prefer not to—Rider Switch lets the grown-ups take turns enjoying the big attractions without double-dipping in the queue. One parent can wait with the child, then swap places and ride later via a shorter, dedicated entrance—no need to wait in line again. It's a smart, family-friendly way to make sure everyone gets their turn in the fun.
