🚨Breaking Disney News🚨
Starting January 5, 2026, all guests who are checked in and staying at one of the Disneyland Resort Hotels with valid admission and park reservation will receive one Lightning Lane entry for an available Lightning Lane Multi Pass-eligible attraction of their choice to use during their resort stay. ⚡️
With this update, they will no longer offer the Early Entry program 😩 for guests staying at the Hotels of the Disneyland Resort, which was another way of enjoying a shorter line to their attractions.
With this update, guests will still get the benefit of time to enjoy expedited access to some of our most popular attractions without having to wake up early to make use of this perk. Lightning Lane Single Pass attractions like Radiator Springs Racers and Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance are not available with this entitlement.
Annnnnd in addition, the Pixar Place Hotel entrance to Disney California Adventure will be unavailable beginning Jan. 5, 2026, as we continue to optimize our arrival experiences. Guests of Pixar Place Hotel may use the Disney California Adventure Park entrance located inside Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa.
What do you think about the changes?
