There are many ways by which one can acquire cheap Disneyland tickets. You can look through travel brochures and Entertainment Books in the hopes that a coupon or two will magically appear in one of its pages. On the other hand, the internet is the best source for cheap tickets— more specifically, the official website of Disneyland is the most reliable source for these.
What you should do is go online and visit the homepage of Disneyland’s official website. Once you are here you can find a special offers button in the middle of the page’s left sidebar. It’s a huge square, so I assure that you won’t miss it. After you have clicked on the button, you will be led to a new page in which you can view all of the promotions currently being offered by the theme park.
Basically, these discounts can be divided into two categories: (1) vacation/hotel packages and (2) special tickets. The first kind of discount pertains to those that you can get when you book reservations in one of the park’s partner hotels. While you will not get discounted rates for the hotel itself you will be given reduced prices for park admission.
If you do not have memberships in any hotel or do not mind staying in a kiddy themed hotel then you could avail of one of the vacation/hotel packages. The other option; however, is what most visitors choose to take. Buying discounted tickets for the park is easy when you purchase these online. Moreover, buying online is much better than lining up for an hour by the Disneyland entrance only to end up buying a more expensive ticket.
There are numerous kinds of tickets you can purchase online depending on what you need and how much you are willing to pay. If you are a California resident who loves going to this park then you can opt to purchase an annual pass. This pass will give you unlimited access to the park for an entire year after your purchase.
Aside from free admission to the park, you will also get discounted rates for hotels that the park is partnered with. Also, you can avail of cheaper food and drinks inside the park as well as discounts in the Downtown Disney district of the park. There are various kinds of annual passes that you can purchase, but the benefits I mentioned are given for purchasers of the cheapest kind of annual pass.
Other tickets you can purchase include Park Hopper Tickets. By purchasing this kind of ticket you are given access to the two Disneyland Parks in California. The duration of this depends on the number of days you purchase. You get as much as US$40 worth of savings for each Park Hopper ticket that you buy. Also, you get early entrance to one park with the use of this ticket. This means you can get on your favorite rides before everyone else does.
A third kind of ticket you can purchase is the multiple day ticket. Variations of this ticket change depending on the time of year. For example, the current Summer Fun Pass being offered allows you three days of access to the park for the price of only US$33 per day. Avail of this ticket if you plan to spend multiple days in the park to get the most out of your Disneyland experience. 1-day tickets can only be reserved in advance via telephone. Just dial this number if you wish to purchase 1-day tickets: 714-781-4400.
