The Park Prodigy 2024 Disneyland Crowd Calendar

Are you planning a trip to Disneyland and Universal Hollywood and worried about crowds and ticket prices?

Our 2024 Disneyland crowd predictor is the perfect tool to help you avoid peak times and make your vacation unforgettable. Not only do we use hundreds upon hundreds of days of historical data, but we track special events at the parks too!

Our 2024 Disneyland Crowd Calendar includes the following theme parks:

  • Disneyland
  • Disney’s California Adventure 
  • Universal Hollywood

We have found that the most accurate Disneyland crowd calendar depends on a few factors, including crowds, weather, park hours, and park ticket prices.

Average Temperature

Los Angeles is known for its sunny and very predictable weather. It is still an important part to consider when booking your next trip. Summer months tend to be in the high 80s while winter months tend to be cooler in the 40s. 

Our 2024 Disneyland Park crowd calendar tracks the average temperature range for each day of the calendar year. This will allow you to know exactly what to expect and pack accordingly!

Theme Park Hours

It doesn’t matter if you’re visiting Disney’s California Adventure or Universal Hollywood, we have found park hours can be confusing, especially with the recent additions of so many special event tickets that allow guests into the park earlier or later than other guests.

Our Disneyland crowd calendar includes the daily openings and closings for all Los Angeles theme parks.

The Park Prodigy 2024 Disneyland Los Angeles Crowd Calendar

The Park Prodigy also allows you to break down each park individually. Here’s how it works…

Disneyland Crowd Calendar 2024

Disneyland is one of the most visited destinations in the world, which makes it essential to choose your dates carefully. Disneyland’s busy times and ticket prices fluctuate throughout the year making a Disneyland crowd tracker a helpful tool. Our updated crowd calendar predicts Disneyland crowds one year in advance. This allows you to narrow down the months, weeks, and days of your next magical vacation.

How The Park Prodigy Disneyland Attendance Calendar is Organized

Our Disneyland crowd calendar gives you the option to look at each park individually. This allows you to organize our crowd calendars by:

  • Disneyland Park 
  • Disney’s California Adventure 

We also include extra magic hours, and special events when predicting Disneyland park attendance by day.

Disneyland Busy Calendar Extra Magic Hours

One of the benefits of staying at Disneyland hotels is extra magic hours. This perk allows hotel guests to experience extended park hours in the morning. Here’s how it works:

With Extra Magic Hour, registered Disneyland Resort hotel guests enjoy admission to select attractions, stores, entertainment, and dining locations in Disneyland Park or Disney California Adventure Park for one full hour before the park opens to the general public.  The extra magic hours at each park do change based on the day of the week so be sure to ask a cast member upon check-in if you are unsure of the EMH for that week.

Disneyland Special Events

A few of our favorite Disneyland additions over the past few years have been special events. These events range from concerts, holiday parties, and festivals throughout the year.

Although these events are typically held during off-peak times, we can see crowd levels spike during the fall. For these reasons, we make sure to include all special events on our crowd calendar for Disneyland.

Our Disneyland park attendance calendar is best used to simply avoid the busy days at the park, and visit during the slow days instead. We update our Disneyland California Crowd Calendar using the latest park events, national holidays, universities & k-12 school year plus our own personal wait time data and vacation planning experience.

2024 Disneyland Crowd Calendar and Disney Genie+

Disney recently introduced the newest addition to the Disneyland App and that is the Disney Genie+. This new feature is replacing Maxpass and for $20 per person per day guests can upgrade their ticket to use the lightening lane at select Disneyland attractions. But how exactly can you use a Disneyland crowd calendar to your advantage when deciding to buy Genie+?

Very simply guests can use our 2024 Disneyland crowd calendar to pick the slowest times of year at the parks. This in return might allow guests to not have to upgrade their ticket to buy the Genie+ all together. If you know that you will be purchasing the Genie+ you must also consider the individual premium Genie+ rides which can be purchased for a one time fee of $7-$15. These prices also will fluctuate based on crowd levels which you can track using our Disneyland California crowd calendar. 

The Park Prodigy’s Disney Crowd Forecast

So now that we have covered the basics, let’s go over what makes our crowd calendar so special. Unlike many other Disneyland crowd calendars, we allow you to customize your perfect family vacation. Simply pick which is most important to you:

  • Avoiding large crowds
  • Saving money

Then click our “save time” or “save money” button and let the crowd calendar do the rest. We will automatically pick the best days for your family to travel for that given month, and exclude the Disneyland busy days.
