How Much Is Disneyland Park Hopper?

A standard Disneyland Park Hopper ticket currently costs $174 to $314 for a 1-day adult ticket, depending on the date. Multi-day adult Park Hopper tickets cost $435 for 2 days, $535 for 3 days, $600 for 4 days and $655 for 5 days.

If you already have a 1 Park Per Day ticket, the cost to add Park Hopper depends on the length of the ticket. For standard multi-day tickets, the upgrade currently adds $100 to a 2-day ticket, $110 to a 3-day ticket, $120 to a 4-day ticket and $135 to a 5-day ticket.

One-day tickets work differently because Disneyland uses date-based pricing tiers. The Park Hopper price changes with the date you choose.

Disneyland Park Hopper Prices

Here is the current standard Disneyland Park Hopper pricing for adults ages 10 and older and children ages 3 to 9.

TicketAges 10+Ages 3-9
1 Day$174-$314$168-$304
2 Days$435$415
3 Days$535$510
4 Days$600$570
5 Days$655$620

Children younger than 3 do not need a Disneyland theme park ticket.

Disney can change ticket prices, so I would confirm the final amount on Disney’s official Disneyland ticket page before purchasing.

If you want all of the current ticket types side by side, my Disneyland ticket prices guide compares Park Hopper and 1 Park Per Day admission.

How Much Is a 1-Day Disneyland Park Hopper?

A standard 1-day Disneyland Park Hopper currently ranges from $174 to $314 for an adult and $168 to $304 for a child ages 3 to 9.

The reason there is such a large range is Disneyland’s 1-day ticket tier system.

1-Day TierAdult Park HopperChild Park Hopper
Tier 0$174$168
Tier 1$199$189
Tier 2$219$209
Tier 3$249$239
Tier 4$264$254
Tier 5$289$279
Tier 6$314$304

Tier 0 is the least expensive group of dates, while Tier 6 covers the highest-priced dates. Disneyland assigns each date to a tier, so you need to know your visit date before you can know the exact 1-day price.

My Disneyland one-day ticket price guide goes deeper into how the tier system works.

How Much Extra Is Park Hopper at Disneyland?

If you’re comparing Park Hopper against a standard 1 Park Per Day ticket, this is the number that matters most.

Ticket Length1 Park Per Day AdultPark Hopper AdultExtra for Park Hopper
1 Day$104-$224$174-$314Varies by tier, generally $70-$90
2 Days$335$435$100
3 Days$425$535$110
4 Days$480$600$120
5 Days$520$655$135

The multi-day charge is for the entire ticket, not a separate Park Hopper fee each day.

That means a 5-day ticket costs $135 more total for Park Hopper, which works out to $27 per park day if you use the hopping benefit every day.

A 2-day ticket costs $100 more total, or $50 per day if you hop on both days.

How Much Does It Cost to Upgrade to Park Hopper?

If you already bought a standard Disneyland ticket, you can generally upgrade an eligible ticket to Park Hopper by paying the difference between your existing ticket and the applicable Park Hopper ticket.

For a standard multi-day adult ticket, that currently means:

  • 2-day ticket: $100 more
  • 3-day ticket: $110 more
  • 4-day ticket: $120 more
  • 5-day ticket: $135 more

The amount for a 1-day ticket depends on its date and tier.

One important rule for multi-day tickets is that Park Hopper applies to the entire ticket. You cannot normally take a 3-day 1 Park Per Day ticket and pay to make only one of those three days a Park Hopper day.

If you already have a ticket and want the actual steps for changing it in the Disneyland app, use my guide to upgrading a Disneyland ticket to Park Hopper online.

What Does a Disneyland Park Hopper Ticket Let You Do?

A Park Hopper ticket lets you visit Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure on the same park day.

You still select a starting park when making your theme park reservation.

Under Disney’s current rules, Park Hopper guests can begin crossing between Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure starting at 11:00 AM, subject to availability.

After 11:00 AM, you can move between the parks multiple times rather than being limited to one switch.

If you have not entered either park yet after 11:00 AM, Disney currently allows you to enter either park even if your reservation originally designated the other park as your starting park.

Disney notes that hopping is still subject to park capacity, operating hours and other restrictions, so I would check the Disneyland app if conditions are unusually busy.

If you want the rules rather than the price, my guide to what a Disneyland Park Hopper includes covers that separately.

Does Park Hopper Include Lightning Lane?

No. Park Hopper and Lightning Lane are separate products.

Park Hopper determines whether you can visit both Disneyland theme parks during the same day. Lightning Lane is a separate paid system designed to reduce standby waits at participating attractions.

You can purchase both for the same trip, but paying for Park Hopper does not automatically give you Lightning Lane access.

If you are considering both upgrades, see my current Disneyland Lightning Lane Multi Pass guide before adding both costs to your ticket.

Does Park Hopper Get Cheaper on a Longer Ticket?

In terms of cost per day, yes.

The Park Hopper upgrade for a standard multi-day ticket is added to the ticket as a whole, so spreading that cost across more park days lowers the effective cost per day.

TicketTotal Hopper UpgradeUpgrade Cost Per Day
2 Days$100$50.00
3 Days$110About $36.67
4 Days$120$30.00
5 Days$135$27.00

This does not automatically mean Park Hopper is worth buying. It simply means the additional cost becomes smaller per day as the length of the ticket increases.

If the decision is whether that flexibility is worth the money for your particular trip, I would use my separate guide to whether Park Hopper is worth it at Disneyland.

A 3-Day Park Hopper Is Currently $535 for an Adult

The 3-day ticket is worth calling out because it is a common Disneyland trip length.

A standard 3-day adult ticket currently costs:

  • 1 Park Per Day: $425
  • Park Hopper: $535
  • Difference: $110 total

For a child ages 3 to 9, the current 3-day Park Hopper price is $510.

If that is the specific ticket you’re considering, my 3-day Disneyland Park Hopper guide covers how the ticket works across the three park days.

Can You Save Money on a Disneyland Park Hopper?

Disneyland occasionally offers promotional tickets for eligible groups or specific travel dates, and some promotions include or offer Park Hopper admission at a different price from the standard tickets shown above.

Because those deals change throughout the year, I would not build this price guide around one temporary promotion.

Instead, check my current Disneyland ticket discounts before buying, then compare the final Park Hopper price against Disney’s standard ticket price.

So, How Much Should You Budget for Park Hopper?

For a standard ticket, I would budget based on these current numbers:

  • 1 day: $174-$314 per adult, depending on the date
  • 2 days: $435 per adult
  • 3 days: $535 per adult
  • 4 days: $600 per adult
  • 5 days: $655 per adult

If you already know you want to visit both parks during the same day, compare those numbers with the equivalent 1 Park Per Day ticket rather than thinking of Park Hopper as a flat $65 add-on. That older pricing is no longer accurate.
