Important: Since 2020 Disneyland Paris no longer offer the option of purchasing tickets at the gate.
You must either have a dated ticket or register your visit date in advance if you have an undated ticket.

The cheapest tickets being a 1 day/1 park pass. The 2 park pass allows you to hop between the parks as you wish.
You must choose a date for entry (Subject to availability). This ticket type allows free cancellation up to 3 days before your visit. Non-dated tickets do not grant automatic entry to the parks.
Multi-Day tickets for Disneyland Paris are the most cost effective option. The more days you choose, the more you save!
Choose from 2-4 day tickets. You must choose a date for entry. This ticket type allows free cancellation up to 3 days before your visit.
Undated tickets, also known as open-dated or flexible tickets, offer park admission to Disneyland Paris without specifying a particular date for entry.
These tickets provide visitors with the freedom to choose when they want to visit the parks within a certain timeframe, offering flexibility and convenience for planning a trip to the magical world of Disney.
Undated Disneyland Paris tickets are valid for a year after purchase and can be used on any date apart from 14 Jul, 31 Oct, 31 Dec.
This ticket type cannot be cancelled or refunded.
To enter the parks, you must go on to the Disneyland Paris website and select the date you wish to redeem it for.
To make sure you are getting the best ticket for your requirements, you should consider the following points and questions:
The longer the duration of ticket you purchase, the cheaper the cost per day. Check out the multi-day passes for the cheapest price per day.
Undated tickets are more expensive than dated tickets but offer greater flexibility.
All the ticket options (apart from same day tickets) require the first date of entry to be specified either on booking or before your visit.
Entry on multi day tickets must be concurrent i.e. you cannot have a gap and use that day at a later date

The cheapest months tend to be weekdays in the following months- January to mid February, Mid September to start of October, most of November and the start of December.

In my opinion a 2 day ticket is plenty if you’ve experienced Disneyland Paris before, but if its you’re first visit you may wish to look at the 3 & 4 day options.
It also depends on the season. In summer for instance, the parks tend to be very busy, so you will wait longer for rides and therefore, see and do less in a day, than in January for example.
Check out the park opening and closing times, as well as any special events, parades, or shows that may impact your itinerary.
It’s also worth checking which rides have scheduled closures for maintenance, particularly if you have a favourite ride you don’t want to miss. All this information can be found on the Disneyland Paris App.
If visiting for just 1 day, do you want to visit just one park or hop between the two? Disneyland Paris is made up of two parks – Disneyland Park and Disney Studios (soon to be renamed), both with unique attractions in each.
One day tickets have the option of just choosing to do one park (the cheapest ticket you can buy). Or you can get a 1 day/ 2 park hopper ticket.
All multi-day tickets automatically include the hopper facility.
If staying on site or with a Disney Partner Hotel, some ticket options are bundled with accommodation packages, providing a convenient way to combine park admission with hotel stays and dining plans.
Standalone tickets may be a cheaper option combined with an off site hotel.
The best hotels for those on a budget include Explorers, Hotel B&B at Disneyland, Adagio Marne-la-Vallee, Campanile Val de France, Grand Magic and Dream Castle.

If you’re arriving early evening or planning to fly soon after lunch, are you really getting the full value from that days ticket?
We recommend only purchasing tickets for day's you're going to realistically get your money's worth.
For ticketing purposes, children are defined as ages 3-11 years, adults age 12+ and infants 0-2 years. Infants go free at Disneyland Paris.
Dated tickets can be cancelled 3 days before arrival
Undated tickets are valid for a 1 year period
In recent years Disneyland Paris has taken away the fast pass machines which were free for everyone to use for particular 'in demand' attractions.
This has now been replaced with a new system giving you two options if you wish to skip ride queues.
This is a new type of ticket 'add on' which allows you to skip ONE single ride or attraction.
This can be pre-purchased via the Disneyland Paris app, or bought on the day in the parks. With this 'add on' you'll be allocated the next available time slot to skip the queue.
This allows you to skip the ride queues all day long, on all eligible attractions.
You get to skip the queue 1 time for each available attraction. You don't need to get a time slot, just join the queue.
You can buy online, in advance via the Disneyland Paris app
