    AP early entry details:

    Dates and Tickets

    When is Annual Passholder Early Entry?
    Annual Passholder Early Entry events will begin on June 18, 2012, and run through September 13, 2012. At Disneyland Park, early entry events will typically be available on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. At Disney California Adventure Park, special events will typically be available on Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Please note that Annual Passholder Early Entry may not operate daily due to previously scheduled Park events and is subject to change or cancellation without notice.

    Each Annual Passholder may register for and/or attend one Annual Passholder Early Entry event at each Park, with dates available from June 18 through September 13, 2012. Space is limited and registration for an event is not guaranteed.

    Can I attend on any available date?
    No. You may only participate in Annual Passholder Early Entry events on days when your Annual Passport is valid for theme park admission (i.e. not blocked out) and you have a confirmed registration.

    Each Annual Passholder may register for one Annual Passholder Early Entry event at each Park, from June 18 through September 13, 2012. All Annual Passholders in your group must also have a valid Annual Passport and confirmed registration for the selected event date and participation.

    Can I attend more than once? Due to limited availability for the event each day, each Annual Passholder may only register for one Annual Passholder Early Entry event at Disneyland Park and one Annual Passholder Early Entry event at Disney California Adventure Park from June 18 through September 13, 2012. Advance online registration is required. Space is limited and registration for an event is not guaranteed.

    Can I use a ticket other than my Annual Passport if my Annual Passport is blocked out on a certain day? No. Blockout Tickets and non-Annual Passport tickets will not be accepted for theme park admission during the Annual Passholder Early Entry event.

    If my Annual Passport was revoked or expired, can I still attend? No. All registered Passholders must have a valid Annual Passport for theme park admission and participation in the Annual Passholder Early Entry event. Blockout Tickets and non-Annual Passport tickets will not be accepted for theme park admission during the event.

    Guest Information

    Who is invited to Annual Passholder Early Entry? All valid Disneyland Resort Annual Passholders have an opportunity to participate in this event! Please note that space is limited and based on availability, and currently only offered from June 18, 2012 through September 13, 2012. Advance online registration is required. Each Guest must have a valid Annual Passport for the day of the event for Park entry.

    Due to the size of the event and number of Passholders, event participation is limited to registered Passholders only. During the registration process, a Passholder may register up to eight (8) Passholders for the same event date. All Passholders in the party must have an active Annual Passport, both at the time of registration and on the date of the selected event.

    Can I bring non-Annual Passholders as my Guests? No. As this is a special event for Disneyland Resort Annual Passholders, registered Passholders and their Guests must be active Annual Passholders with valid theme park admission.

    Is there an age restriction to the event? Passholders must be at least 18 years old to register for Annual Passholder Early Entry. However, additional Passholders in their party may be any age so long as they are all valid Disneyland Resort Annual Passholders.

    My child is under 3 and does not have an Annual Passport. Will my child count as a Guest? No. Children under 3 will not count towards the total number in the Guest's party and will not require registration.

    Registration and Confirmation

    Is there any fee for Annual Passholder Early Entry? No. There is no extra charge for this event. The opportunity to participate is an added benefit of the Disneyland Resort Annual Passholder program.

    How do I register? The registration site for Annual Passholder Early Entry may be accessed online. For registration, you will need to provide your current Annual Passport number and those of additional Annual Passholders in your group.

    How long is the registration period? Online registration will close for each individual Annual Passholder Early Entry event at 11:59 p.m. (PST) 3 days prior to that event date (or when such event date is full, whichever occurs first). For example, registration for the event on June 18 will close at 11:59 p.m. (PST) on June 15, 2012, or earlier if the date fills up.

    Can I come to the Park that day and wait in line?
    No. There is no waitlist available for Annual Passholder Early Entry events, and there will not be a standby line at the Resort.
    I lost my confirmation email, can you resend it? Yes, you can request a resend of your confirmation email. Please contact Annual Passport Member Services at (714) 781-PASS (7277).

    Check-In

    What do I need to bring to the event? Please bring your confirmation and present your Annual Passport as verification of your registration for the event. You and your registered Guests will each be required to present active Annual Passports to check in (photo I.D. may also be required) and for Park admission.

    Check-in will be next to Ticket Booth 4 in the Disneyland Resort Main Entrance Esplanade, to the left of the Disney California Adventure Park turnstiles, starting 30 minutes prior to the start of the event. Once checked in and you have received a wristband, you can proceed to the Disneyland Park or Disney California Adventure Park turnstiles.


    Additional information is on the Annual Passholders page.

    For the AP one looks like it said:

    Advance online registration is required due to limited availability each day.

    Registration begins soon! Please check back.
    I can't seem to find where this info is at on the Disney website (for some reason when the Carsland one that was free came out couldn't see that page either, had a friend send me the direct link, I don't see any of them under AP section).

    The D23 one is here and you click on Purchase tickets:

    For the AP Preview tickets go to the Disneyland website, find the Annual Passports drop-down menu and choose Disneyland News. From there choose "The Happiest Place on Earth just got Happier . . . ". You will find three sections - one for the Sweepstakes, one for the Preview and one for Early Entry. Choose to "Learn More" for the Preview. Within that article you will have options to buy tickets.

    The D23 one is here and you click on Purchase tickets:
    For the AP Early Entry information follow the same steps but choose the Early Entry "Learn More" option. Registration is still upcoming and you will need to continue to check back.

    Disneyland News, which contains - among other things - Cars Land info, is on the AP "Today" page (right hand side). But it doesn't appear until after you have logged in.

    Yawn!

    An hour early.
    And you can only do each park once.
    So that means get in line for one of the three new attractions at DCA.

    Disney fan....yesterday, today and always!

    Sometimes we all need a bit of magic.
