Who has been to Disney the most?

Jeff Reitz visited Disneyland nearly 3,000 times in a row. Now he has a Guinness World Record. Editor's Note: Monthly Ticket is a CNN Travel series that spotlights some of the most fascinating topics in the travel world.



The unofficial world record for the most consecutive visits to a Disney park is held by Jeff Reitz, a California resident who visited Disneyland in Anaheim every single day for eight years, three months, and 13 days. Reitz began his journey on January 1, 2012, as a way to stay positive during a period of unemployment. By the time the COVID-19 pandemic forced the parks to close in March 2020, he had amassed an incredible 2,995 consecutive visits. His feat was officially recognized by Guinness World Records in 2023. While many "super-fans" visit the parks hundreds of times a year, Reitz’s commitment involved navigating life events, work schedules, and weather for nearly 3,000 straight days. Beyond Reitz, there are legendary figures like "Disney" Dan and various Annual Passholders who have clocked tens of thousands of lifetime visits, but Reitz remains the gold standard for consistent, documented attendance. His story is a testament to the community and routine that theme parks can provide, turning a simple vacation destination into a daily ritual of exercise, networking, and photography.
