What happens if you are in line when Disneyland closes?

Get In Line at Closing Disney's usual policy states that as long as you are in line for an attraction by the time the Park closes, you'll get to ride it. That means if you get on line for Test Track at 8:59 p.m., you may walk off it at 9:30 or later, meaning you'll walk through the Park after it closes.

The line stays long throughout the day, but mornings are the worst. I recommend checking wait times of Rise of the Resistance, using the official Disneyland app to determine when to go on Rise. Check around lunch time and if it's under 60 minutes go for it. The wait time will not get shorter.

Much like the amorphous nature of park opening, the stated park closing time is fluid. When Disney says that Magic Kingdom closes at 9:00 p.m. (for example), that simply that 9:00 p.m. is the time when no more guests will be allowed to enter the park and that the lines for attractions will be capped.

Disneyland is great for kids over the age of 7. So if you have 4 kids, 2 of which are under 7, you may have to watch which rides you can do. For my family, this meant that my oldest two (ages 9 and 10) could ride rides together while an adult rode with the younger kids (ages 2, 4, and 6).
