Can you print your Disneyland tickets?

You can choose to either print out your Disney eTicket from the eTicket viewer or have it digitally scanned directly from your handheld device. If you have purchased multiple tickets and wish to print them for use, be sure to print each Disney eTicket individually.



In 2026, you can still print your Disneyland tickets, but it is no longer the primary or recommended method. When you purchase a "Disney eTicket" through the website, you receive a PDF confirmation that can be printed at home. However, Disneyland and Disney California Adventure are now designed as "Mobile-First" environments. Most guests simply link their tickets to the Disneyland App, which generates a QR code that can be scanned directly from their smartphone at the turnstiles. In 2026, having your ticket in the app is nearly essential, as it allows you to also manage your Lightning Lane selections and mobile food orders throughout the day. A 2026 "pro-tip" is to print a paper backup just in case your phone battery dies or the app glitches, but for 99% of your park experience, the digital version on your phone will be your "key to the kingdom."
