Ticket prices for Disneyland and Disney California Adventure increased an average of 3.2% on Tuesday, Oct. 6.
Disneyland will make no pricing changes to Magic Key annual passes this year, according to Disneyland officials.
Top tier one-day tickets to Disneyland and DCA cost $224 for a single park admission and $319 for a parkhopper ticket. A decade ago, a daily ticket to Disneyland or DCA cost $99 in 2015 and a parkhopper ticket was $155 before Disneyland moved to a tiered-pricing system.
The lowest-priced one day, one park ticket has remained unchanged at $104 since 2019. The cheapest one-day parkhopper ticket climbed 2.9% from $174 to $179.
Parkhopper upgrades will now set you back an additional $75 to $95 with prices rising 1.6% to 7.5% depending on ticket tier.

Disneyland Magic Key annual pass prices remained unchanged.
- Inspire pass: $1,899
- Believe pass: $1,474
- Enchant pass: $974
- Imagine pass: $599
Daily theme park parking rates remained unchanged at $40.
The cost of the Lightning Lane Multipass line-cutting service rose 2.9% to $35 on pre-arrival purchases. Prices will vary for purchases made at the parks — starting at $38 on the day of visit.
With the latest increases, Disneyland continues to use ticket pricing to manage attendance and spread visits from peak periods to slower times of the year.
Starting in 2016, Disneyland switched to a demand-based pricing system with tickets divided into tiers. The number of tiers has increased from three in 2016 ($95 to $119) to five in 2020 ($104 to $154), six in 2021 ($104 to $164) and seven in 2022 ($104 to $179).
Since 2020, Disneyland’s top tier one-day prices have risen annually 3.2% to 9.1% for a single park admission and 3.4% to 9.2% annually for a parkhopper ticket.
Disney ticket price increases typically have a ripple effect, with Universal Studios Hollywood, SeaWorld San Diego and Knott’s Berry Farm raising admissions soon after to keep pace with the industry leader.
The Disneyland resort provides a wide variety of ticket, dining and hotel options along with promotional offers throughout the year to help visitors save money, according to Disneyland officials.
