Japan Schedule
Tokyo Disneyland & DisneySea
We recommend downloading the Tokyo Disney Resort app to purchase park tickets. If budget allows, consider a Disney Vacation Package for an on-property stay โ these include fast passes, 3 meals, snacks, and exclusive merch. The Japanese booking site can be a bit slow, so we suggest planning and purchasing about 5 months in advance if youโre interested. ๐ข ๐๏ธ
