Disney had shut down its global theme parks indefinitely due to the rapid spread of COVID-19 in early 2020, starting with Hong Kong Disneyland and Shanghai Disneyland in January last year.
Both theme parks at Disneyland Paris had originally reopened July 15, 2020, but the French parks closed again on Oct.
Disney World resorts and hotels began reopening in late June 2020, while the Disney Springs shopping and dining area reopened May 20.
As of May 15, it became optional to wear masks in outdoor areas and pool decks, and on June 11 Disney World announced masks are optional for guests who are fully vaccinated, except while on the monorail, Disney buses and the Skyliner.
Under new California theme park guidance issued March 5, Disneyland reopened on April 30, but is currently capped at a maximum capacity of 35% with only residents of California permitted to enter the parks.
Hong Kong Disneyland reopened on June 18, 2020, with reduced capacity, enhanced health measures and a new reservation system — but then closed down again on July 15 after a spike in coronavirus cases in the region.
“As required by the government and in line with preventive efforts taking place across Hong Kong, Hong Kong Disneyland park is temporarily closed,” the park said.
To attend, you can make a reservation seven days before arriving — or nine days if you’re a Magic Access Platinum member of the theme park.
It has limits on attendance, a reservation system to gain entry to the park, an entry control system, social distancing requirements, tape markings keeping guests distanced while in lines for rides, masks, temperature screenings, contact tracing and government-required health procedures.
