When Do 2026 Disneyland Tickets & Packages Go On Sale? Caveat Allows You to Book Now

Disneyland packages include your Disneyland hotel and ticket so you can bundle all your options together. Once Disneyland releases these packages, you can book directly through Disney or through our favorite travel partner for even deeper discounts.

Currently, you can officially only book Disneyland tickets and packages through 2025, but there is a caveat here that we discuss below. You are able to book tickets valid for travel in 2026 now and certain hotels are becoming available for a combined package discount. See how below. Generally, though, we will break down when 2026 Disneyland tickets and packages go on sale.

According to historical trends, the 2026 Disneyland packages will likely go on sale around the end of August. The last two years we saw Disneyland packages go on sale August 21 and 24 which means we can expect that same week in August this year.

Once Disneyland packages go on sale, there is typically a bit of a slow down in booking that day as everyone rushes to book their travel packages. Now that Costco is no longer offering Disneyland vacation packages, many guests are questioning where to book their Disneyland vacation packages which leads us to our next recommendation for booking your Disneyland package.

There is also a recommendation that you can actually book 2026 tickets and hotels now in certain instances.

How to Get Discounts on Disneyland Packages

The best way to get discounts on Disneyland vacation packages is to avoid booking directly with the Walt Disney Travel Company. Their goal is to sell you the package at full value and offer the least amount of Disneyland hotel discounts possible. Disney reservationists will not offer up specific discounts over the phone unless you ask directly even though they are very kind and offer wonderful service. This is why the best way to book a discount Disneyland package is through an authorized Disney travel agent.

Disney travel agents have access to the same Disneyland hotel discounts but also offer specific deals on their own. Our top recommendation is booking with Get Away Today who makes customer service and highest discounts for their customers top priority. They have over 30 years of experience and their agents have firsthand experience with the Disneyland Resort. Unlike other agencies, Get Away Today agents visit the parks and experience the vacation before ever selling it to you.

One of the best perks of using Get Away Today is their prices for local hotels and tickets. They purchase Disneyland tickets and hotel rooms in blocks so that they can repackage them at much lower prices than anything that Disneyland offers. Their discounts are the best especially if you want to book any of the off-site Disneyland hotels plus they sometimes offer exclusive benefits for their partner hotels like free breakfast, free parking, and other discounts.

Get Away Today also offers layaway plans that allows guests to make as many payments as you would like on your vacation up to nine days before the departure date. The first payment requires a minimum payment of $200 (including non-refundable $99 Layaway Plan fee) so guests can then decide how many payments they’d like to make. The vacation is held until the final payment is made which makes this a great option for families to be able to plan and save for their vacation. This is our favorite option to book Disneyland packages and makes your vacation planning a seamless process.

Important Caveat For Those Who Want to Book NOW

Get Away Today is already selling discount Disneyland tickets for 2026, so you can start planning your 2026 trip. They are also able to book hotels near Disneyland, but not the official Disneyland Resort Hotels, into 2026 for you now.

However, they are not booking hotel packages with tickets on their website for 2026 yet. They are able to do this when you call them so that you can get a discount by combining tickets and hotels.

I recommend that you check Get Away Today’s site to help pick your hotel, then call them directly and request the Mickey Visit rate to see if they can get them booked for you now. They already have a lot of hotel capacity ready for 2026 for certain hotels, so your best bet is to call! When you ask for your Mickey Visit rate, you’ll get additional discounts on both tickets and hotels.

We added this caveat to this article when I heard from a reader who was getting anxious about not having the ability to book a 2026 trip yet. The Walt Disney World mindset is to get everything booked far in advance, so it feels quite foreign to not be able to book an early 2026 trip at this point.
