Tickets
How the tickets work
For Shanghai Disneyland you buy a park ticket for a fixed date. The ticket is in your name: when you buy it, you enter your passport number, and at the entrance you show that same passport. If you want to queue for less time, you can add Disney Premier Access.
Park tickets
With a park ticket you can go in and out as often as you like on your visit day, and you have access to all eight themed lands. There are 1-day and 2-day tickets. A 1-day ticket costs from ¥475; the price varies by day (as of November 2026).
- Children under 3 get in free.
- Children aged 3 to 11 inclusive need a child ticket.
- From age 60 you buy a senior ticket.
- If you buy at least 10 days in advance, you get an Early Bird discount.
Your passport is your ticket
Shanghai Disney Resort uses tickets in your name (real-name ticketing). When buying, you enter a valid ID number for each visitor; for Dutch and Belgian visitors, that's your passport number. At the entrance, each visitor shows the original passport used for the purchase. A copy or photo isn't enough.
At the entrance, a photo is also taken of you as proof that you're the ticket holder. Without that photo you can't use Premier Access or re-enter the park, among other things.
Disney Premier Access
With Disney Premier Access you pay for faster access to a selected attraction or a better spot at a show, such as ILLUMINATE!, the parade and the theatre shows. Availability is limited. You can only buy it once you have a park ticket, and only via the official site, the official app, the official WeChat account or the official Fliggy store. There are also packages combining a 1-day ticket with Premier Access, from ¥870 (as of November 2026).
With an Early Park Entry Pass you can enter the park up to an hour before opening.
Free: Disney Standby Pass
On busy days the park uses the free Disney Standby Pass. You get it in the official app once you're in the park: you scan your ticket's QR code and choose a time to join the queue. Everyone in your party needs their own pass. According to the park, this applies to Roaring Rapids, Peter Pan’s Flight, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, TRON Lightcycle Power Run and a number of shows, among others, but this can vary from day to day.
Where can you buy tickets?
The resort recommends buying only through official channels: the official site, the official app, the WeChat account, the reservation centre (+86-21-3158-0000 from abroad) and official stores on JD, Fliggy and Douyin. Official travel partners and a number of partner hotels also sell tickets; the full list is on the official site. According to the resort, products bought through other channels are often fake.
