Disneyland Hours of Operation
In the slide show above, you've been viewing colorful pictures of Disneyland Park in Anaheim, California! Just thinking about all the fun rides, characters and attractions at Disneyland will leave you hoping for LONG HOURS on the day you plan to visit (so you'll have plenty of time to enjoy everything!)
Disneyland Hours Overview
What time does Disneyland open and close? You'll find Disneyland's opening hours on this page!
On this page, you'll find theme park hours for Disneyland...but Disneyland Park ONLY. Disneyland's "sister" theme park, the Disney California Adventure Park, has hours of operation which are completely different. You'll need to head to the the page on this website covering the Disney California Adventure park hours of operation, if that's the theme park you'll be visiting.Were you looking for the Disneyland Park parade and show schedules? Unless you like going to the theme park strictly for the rides, that's important information, too! And, you'll find it on the Disneyland Parade & Entertainment Schedules page of this website.
Note: Disneyland reserves the right to change their operating hours (or showtime schedules) at any time. This is NOT likely to affect visitors very much, since any adjustments are likely to be small (for example, opening one hour earlier or staying open one hour later than planned.) Yet, you should be prepared for the possibility of changes to the schedule.
How can you stay as late as possible at Disneyland Park? The Disneyland closing times are actually the times at which the park's rides and attractions close. However, these closing times are NOT in effect for Main Street! Main Street stores & snack shops remain open later than the rest of the theme park so that visitors may buy souvenirs and eat a bite before heading home! If you're running short on time, save visiting Main Street for the end of the day...when you'll get in some after-hours "extra time."

Disneyland Hours of Operation, November 2009
| Anaheim Hotel Deals Beach Hotel Deals OC Hotel Deals Ticket Deal |
November is the month that Disneyland fans can celebrate 2 holidays! The popular Halloween season at the theme park holds its last day of festivities on Sunday, November 1st. Then, for a few weeks, extra entertainment cuts back to a minimum amount (except on the weekends, when local residents flock to the park.) Why? Because this is a "lull" period, when Halloween says goodbye at the park...but Christmas hasn't yet said "Hello."
Still...early November can be an ideal time to visit Disneyland. You'll find generally shorter hours...but you'll also find shorter lines for rides and attractions! You may be able to pack in just as much fun on your visit as when the park stays open longer...because these shorter lines will save you time.
You won't have long to wait, though, until the Christmas season begins at Disneyland Park! Especially this year (2009) Disneyland's November lull is quite short. Believe it or not, Disneyland's Christmas season begins Friday, November 13, 2009! All the trees will be trimmed, the ornaments hung in place...and Santa makes his annual appearance in the Disneyland Christmas Fantasy Parade! (Please visit the Disneyland Christmas Parade page of this site if you'd like to see pictures!)
The weather in November at Disneyland Park will still be pleasantly warm...at least, during the daytime. Mornings may be cool, but you'll be enjoying fine temperatures in the high 60's to 70's once afternoon time rolls around. Be sure that you "dress in layers," so that you may remove your sweater or jacket if you get warm. Evenings in November will give you a chill. But, if you've dressed in layers, you can simply put your jacket back on after dark, and you'll have managed to feel comfortable all day and evening long!

Disneyland Hours--December, 2009
The Christmas season is a beautiful and captivating time of year to visit Disneyland Park. Daytime temperatures are usually quite mild...often in the mid to upper 60's. Nighttime temperatures at Disneyland tend to plunge below the comfort point. While Northerners may laugh at what wimps Californians are, locals and visitors from Southern states will certainly need either jackets...or even heavy coats...as the temperatures drop routinely into the 50's. Even worse, during a cold snap, nighttime temperatures will plunge down into the 40's. Dress in layers to add and remove clothing throughout the day; that's the best way to stay comfortable during your visit!Rain?It will probably rain up to as many as 5 or 6 days during the month of December. Activities keep right on going at Disneyland Park, however. (And no rainchecks are given...so keep that fact in mind before you enter the theme park.) A few rides will close, but other attractions will pay the rain no heed. Wind at the park, however, will surely cancel the evening's fireworks...so listen for the announcements which are always made on windy nights to keep yourself posted.
