Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa and Disney's Paradise Pier Hotel would reopen on July 23. The Disneyland Hotel will open at a later date.
What you need to know about the parks reopening:
Theme park capacity will be significantly limited "to comply with governmental requirements and promote physical distancing."
Attendance will be managed by a new reservation system that will require guests, including annual pass holders, to acquire reservations in advance.
As a result, Disney is placing a temporary pause on new ticket sales along with annual pass sales and renewals. Disney Parks will release more details on the reservation system in the near future.
Parades and nighttime spectaculars will not be available when the parks reopen. They'll return at a later date. Character meet and greets will also be temporarily unavailable, though characters will still be in the parks.
Increased cleaning measures and health and safety protocols will be implemented across the Disneyland Resort upon reopening. Disney will make a guest experience team available throughout the parks and Downtown Disney to answer any guest questions regarding new policies.
