What to know before Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure open on Tuesday, October 27. All times are Pacific Time.

Disneyland Park

Disneyland Park is open from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM today, October 27, 2026. The park typically sees its busiest period between 5 PM and 8 PM, when average headliner wait times reach 39 minutes.

Rope drop plan

For guests arriving at park opening, Tiana's Bayou Adventure typically has a 5-minute wait, saving 44 minutes compared to its usual peak. Roger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin usually sees a 6-minute wait at opening, saving 36 minutes, and Matterhorn Bobsleds typically has a 9-minute wait, saving 27 minutes. All three of these attractions are also available via Multi Pass, so you may not need to rope drop them.

Shows and timing

Start your day with live entertainment from the Main Street Straw Hatters at 8:15 AM or 9:10 AM. The Bootstrappers also perform early, with shows at 8:30 AM, 9:30 AM, and 10:30 AM. Later, catch Storytelling at Royal Theatre starting at 10:15 AM or The Dapper Dans at 11:00 AM.

Plan your day

• Prioritize Tiana's Bayou Adventure right at park opening for a typically short 5-minute wait, potentially saving you 44 minutes compared to its peak wait.
• Consider taking a break or enjoying less popular attractions between 5 PM and 8 PM, as this is typically the busiest time of day. During this period, Space Mountain, Haunted Mansion, and Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance are usually the worst for wait times.
• Plan to see a show like The Disneyland Band at Frontierland at 10:30 AM or 2:15 PM, or The Main Street Piano Player with performances throughout the day starting at 11:00 AM.
• Please note that Davy Crockett's Explorer Canoes is closed through at least Oct 29, 2026, and Sailing Ship Columbia is closed through at least Oct 30, 2026.

Disney California Adventure

Disney California Adventure closes early today, October 27, 2026, at 6:00 PM for the Oogie Boogie Bash, so plan to make the most of your morning and early afternoon. This event continues until 11:00 PM for party guests.

Rope drop plan

For minimal waits right at 8:00 AM, consider Monsters, Inc. Mike & Sulley to the Rescue!, which typically has a 5-minute wait at opening, saving you 36 minutes compared to its typical peak. Toy Story Midway Mania! also typically has an 8-minute wait at opening, saving 36 minutes. WEB SLINGERS: A Spider-Man Adventure typically sees a 12-minute wait at opening, saving 31 minutes. All three are also available via Multi Pass, so rope dropping might not be essential if you plan to use it.

Shows and timing

Early birds can catch Anna & Elsa's Royal Welcome, Avengers Headquarters, or Citizens of Buena Vista Street right at 8:00 AM. The Amazing Spider-Man! performs frequently throughout the day, with its first show at 9:50 AM, and Mickey's Trick and Treat at the Disney Theater begins at 10:45 AM.

Plan your day

• Maximize your morning: Disney California Adventure closes at 6:00 PM today for the Oogie Boogie Bash, so prioritize your must-do attractions before the park closes to day guests.
• Hit a popular ride early: To save significant time, head to Monsters, Inc. Mike & Sulley to the Rescue! or Toy Story Midway Mania! right at 8:00 AM, as they typically have very short waits at opening.
• Be aware of peak times: Expect ride waits to typically be highest between 3 PM and 6 PM. Yesterday, Guardians of the Galaxy - Monsters After Dark averaged 104 minutes and peaked at 140 minutes, while Radiator Springs Racers averaged 71 minutes and peaked at 95 minutes.
• Catch a show: Plan to see one of the many performances throughout the day, such as The Amazing Spider-Man! starting at 9:50 AM or Warriors of Wakanda: The Disciplines of the Dora Milaje from 10:30 AM.
