What time does the parking lot/structure open? I will have to buy tickets at the kiosk and want to get there nice and early to be right near the rope drop.

Last time I went, we got stuck at the entrance to the parking structure until almost park opening time!!!

officially, about an hour before the park is scheduled to open. reportedly, sometimes up to a half hour before.

i would buy tickets in advance.

where can I buy tickets in advance? don't I still need to go to another line to get the real tickets? I'm only going 1 day.

You can buy the tickets from Disneyland's website. I would assume you could also order over the phone and have the tickets held at will call. Do we have any guest services CMs in here to help?

if you had will call, you'd have to go to the will call window, which should still be significantly less a wait than the ticket booths.

are you looking for a 1 day, 1 park ticket? or 1 day hopper?

alternatively, you can have someone waiting to park the car while someone else goes to the ticket booth.

Try your local Disney Store.

Check disneyland.com

If all else fails, call the Disneyland Switchboard at 714 781 4000: Somebody there ought to be able to help you.
