Does Disneyland refund for bad weather?

You'll find that most Guests will continue having fun even through the storms, and most rides and attractions will keep running as long as there is no lightning and it is safe to do so. Walt Disney World Resort does not usually refund tickets due to inclement weather.



Disneyland generally maintains a strict no-refund policy for inclement weather, as the parks are designed to operate "rain or shine." Most attractions at both Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure are located indoors or are covered, meaning the majority of the "show" continues even during heavy downpours. However, severe weather such as high winds or lightning will result in the temporary closure of outdoor attractions like Big Thunder Mountain Railroad or Incredicoaster for safety reasons. In such cases, Disney does not provide partial refunds or "rain checks." If a major event like a separately ticketed "After Dark" party is completely canceled by Disney due to extreme weather, they may offer a rebooking or a credit, but this is handled on a case-by-case basis. For standard day guests, the best "refund" is the significantly shorter wait times that occur when the rain scares away the local crowds, making a rainy day one of the most efficient times to visit if you bring a sturdy poncho.
