The Baseline: For a parking structure you must provide parking, there must be a level of safety for your vehicle, and the price for the parking must be fair with the area it is located. This is a highly, regulated paid parking structure. The structure has all of the following features (as of April 2026): $40 per standard; $60 per preferred. ADA compliant spaces are available and some have EV charging. EV charging spaces are available and they use the ChargePoint App for administering. When exiting you have to hit the left exit lane if you can bypass the Ball Road stoplight. Magic Key holders get discounted or included parking. I rated it 4 stars only because Disney parking is pretty expensive, but it is a safe, monitored structure. read more

This parking structure is HUGE! There are two parking areas: Mickey and Friends and Pixar Pals. The main entrance is from Ball Rd or off the 5Fwy (South) on Disneyland Dr. The Pixar Pals area also has an entrance off Magic Way, and it's usually open in the mornings (though not always). This place will test your patience during the mornings and special event days. Parking prices increase each year, and there are standard and preferred options. In late 2025, standard parking is $40, and preferred parking is $60. EV charge stations are available but limited; ask the booth attendant for availability during your stay. You can board the trams here or take the walkway to Downtown Disney on level 2 at the south end of the structure. Elevators, escalators, and stairs are available. There are three elevators on the Mickey and Friends side, and five on the other end in Pixar Pals. They can get backed up during peak times. I appreciate all the parking attendants who manage the incoming cars and how efficient they are. Sometimes, after the morning rush, the parking is wide open, and you search for a spot. The structure is also clean, with plenty of lighting to help you navigate. read more

Return shuttle at the same place. Easy, convenient. Saves your toesies a long walk. You'll appreciate it a lot at the end of the night after a day's worth of fun times. The other option is to uber or Lyft - we tried both ways. This way is good if the heat of the day is getting to you from noon and you need to return to your ac'd lodging to take a load off, chill, charge your phone, and read more

Mickey and Friends is the main parking option for Disneyland so you are basically guaranteed to end up here. For the most part they are organized and traffic flow is handled pretty efficiently. After 8pm they usually let you in for free which is a nice perk. Otherwise the price has gone up to 40 dollars for non pass holders. Inspire pass holders still park for free and if you visit often it definitely makes the pass more worthwhile. Some of the parking lights do not work correctly and can show a false green or false red which makes finding a spot more frustrating than it needs to be. My car has always been safe here, but the structure could be cleaner at times. Overall it does its job and is convenient, but there are a few areas that could be improved. read more

Arrived at 5:55 am. Wasn't aware that the Parking Lot opened at 7:00 am. Recommend that you purchase your Parking Entrance Pass on the app for convenience. Price on 01/20/26: $40. There's also a handy Car Locator feature on the Disneyland App. read more

Mickey & Friends Parking Structure - At 5:55 am waiting for the Parking Garage to open!!! - Parking Near Me - Anaheim, California

There are two different parking lots for Disneyland. Mickey & friends and Toy Story. This is the multi level, covered structure the tram from downtown Disney takes you. If you parked at Toy Story you will need to take the busses on the opposite side of the ticket booths. Parking for Disney after dark special event was $35. Follow the arrows and look for the green lights. Isles will show the specific number of parking available in that section. Some of the green lights weren't open parking spaces so make sure to find a few options for parking before committing to turn down a row. Elevators and escalators lead you down to the security check. Bathrooms are here and tram to downtown Disney entrance. Well lit at night. We were one of the last ones to leave after 2am and it was bright and clean. Each floor has a character and is color coded. read more

Mickey & Friends Parking Structure - Parking Near Me - Anaheim, California

Very organized although crowded. Cast Members at the booths are always ready. If they see me whip my card out they know what I want.

Positives: 1) Lots and lots (no pun intended) of available parking; 2) Easy access to the park entrance trams. Negatives: 1) Price. Preferred parking price which really doesn't seem very preferred), is exhorbitant; 2) Even the "regular" priced parking is wacky. Well... that the price you pay for all things Disney. We got our fix so not expecting a return visit anytime soon. read more

Very easy parking most of the time lol If it's in the morning the cast members tell you where to park so it makes it easier In the afternoon you look for your own parking and the numbers/green lights that are supposed to tell you where there's parking are usually wrong so don't listen to them I try parking at the Mickey and friends instead of Pixar just cuz I feel it's easier Seen some crazy things at Theo parking though, but it's the Disney parking read more

I like parking at the Mickey and Friends parking structure better than the toy story lot so you can get some shade on a hot day for your ride. Always helpful staff here, and the trams are super easy to get to. Just really hate the price gouging that Disney feels entitled to do with literally everything. Just a couple years ago it was 20 bucks and now it's 35. Not all of the elevators are always working here.. Disney should really have somebody on maintenance with these things or maybe an elevator attendant to help manage the people flow. We've waited over an hour for an elevator here with a stroller and somebody disabled. Just a complete sheet*show. I would almost give them two stars here instead of three because of the elevator situation. read more

Mickey & Friends Parking Structure - Aug 17th, 2025... RIP Off - Parking Near Me - Anaheim, California

This parking structure is very efficient. It reminds me of a toll plaza, where you pull up, pay the attendant, and are guided through a pathway that leads to different parking levels. As you drive in, attendants are stationed at each section, directing you exactly where to park. If you arrive early, you'll likely see people already lined up, and once the gates open, the lot starts filling up quickly and smoothly. You'll also notice that frequent Disney visitors are already familiar with the process, they move efficiently, park quickly, and head straight to the trams. The structure includes a designated handicap area, and cones are placed to help guide you through the correct path to park. A funny observation: the arrows painted on the ground actually point in the opposite direction of the actual traffic flow, so just follow the cones and attendants rather than the ground markings. Overall, the process of parking and getting to the park entrance is fast and well-organized. The only downside is the $35 daily parking fee, which feels a bit steep, especially considering the cost of park admission. Hopefully, the price stays where it is and doesn't increase anytime soon. Other than that, this parking structure is very convenient, efficient, and close to the trams that take you to the front gates of the theme parks. I would highly recommend it. read more

Easy parking structure to navigate. Lots of parking. Parking is pricey for standard parking $40, but that's Disney for you lol.

A Disneyland staple for 25 years (for us Disney adults we remember a huge uncovered parking lot right???), this parking structure is the go-to spot for all visitors to the Disneyland Resort. Parking fees have increased steadily over the years ($35 for autos and $50 for preferred parking). Signage is good and when they added the green and red lights for non occupied or occupied spaces that was a plus. Generally good too because there are minimal false sensors saying that something is available when it's not. My only wish is that there are more EV stations. If you don't get there early you definitely won't get a spot to charge. And given the people are at the parks all day they likely won't unplug. read more

Pricey, but it's easier than the alternatives. They have getting you parked down to a science, it's easy to navigate, and you exit in the action. Again, there are alternatives, but this to me is the easier option. read more

Mickey & Friends Parking Structure - A car! - Parking Near Me - Anaheim, California

April 4th, Arrived around 7:05. We bought the parking pass before hand. I paid $40 but the pice could be cheaper tbh. Smooth parking process, ended up on the mcqueen & mater floor. Staff helped with the parking placements. light walk to the escalators and security check to go on the small trams to the park. read more

My favorite place to park! I love the Mickey and friend's parking structure. I don't know why, but I always go to this one. I guess I know how to navigate it more than the other one? It's $40 for parking now I believe- that's if you don't have an annual pass. I have the Inspire Key Pass which includes parking completely. I've heard that the other passes might only cover a discount on parking, or may not cover at all? That sucks if you go a lot. $40 adds up fast every time you go. The Mickey and friends is easy to access by the escalators and elevators. And they take you right down to the bag check area. And then you are on the tram to enjoy your magical day. :) read more

Nice parking garage that is not only large with 2 structures and multiple floors but the parking is also extremely efficient. The attendants tell you exactly where to park and the lights on the ceiling are there showing red (full) or green (available) if they are not. The garage has escalators that you use and they feed into a tram that drops you off at downtown Disney. The cost is reasonable for California, $35 per car. You can purchase before hand in the app or pay by card (Disney is cashless.) read more

I expect high prices when parking at Disneyland but now it's $30. There are sooo many people who visit the park every day and totally understand costs going up. But I was a little surprised. Security being before you get on the tram is a change I welcome. It makes it so much easier when entering the park. read more

Our gate guard Glenn was amazing! Positive energy brought a bright start to our day! Thank you glen and sweet hair!

Super dirty parking structure. Trash and junk all over. Half the elevators ever work. Escalators are hit and miss. It's a freaking disaster. But you will get charged $35 for parking. read more

We arrived at Mickey and Friend's Parking Lot at 8:42 am yesterday, and spent about 15 minutes in line to pay and park. Your first option for restrooms are just below the parking before going through security and to the trams. I'm not a fan of the price jump on Disney parking - it's now a whopping 30 dollars, so if you live close by, or are staying at a nearby hotel that doesn't offer transportation to the parks, I suggest Uber! When we've stayed at nearby hotels or airbnbs we've spent $16 total on ubering to and from the parks. Tip: When the parking is busy, it means the line for security and the trams to the park will be busy. To skip the jam at the trams - walk from the lot to the Downtown Disney security entry, and make your way to the parks! read more

Mickey & Friends Parking Structure - Parking Near Me - Anaheim, California

Between the different parking lots you have access too, I prefer Mickey & Friends. Your GPS will try to route you to Toy Story, but you'll either have a longer walk, or need to take a shuttle in. Mickey & Friends offers a tram ride or an easy walk to the parks, and they offer a combination of stairs, escalators, and elevators to help out. A tip- level 2 will give you access to the bridge to walk to downtown Disney. Since most strollers don't go on the tram, that's where others with little Disney fans will go to get to security and walk to the park. read more

My partner and I decided to use the Mickey & Friends Parking Structure, two evenings, during our visit at Disneyland California. It was easy to get to, using Google Maps assistance. We were able to scan our annual pass with no problem, providing receipt to put in our Dashboard which allowed us full entry and re-entry into the parking structure during that day. Both times, we were instructed by several Disneyland team members on where to park. During our first visit, we ended up parking at the top level towards the entrance of the parking lot. Trams are currently not active at Disneyland, so we had to walk to the Disneyland entrance. You'll also enter security check here first. All bags will be checked. We didn't have a wait at the security check-ins. Arrival was at 1:00 P.M and 6:00 P.M, both days. It was about 4k steps from the parking garage to the entrance of the theme parks. As you stroll through the pathway, you'll hear Disney themed songs and you'll also walk past some of the stores along Downtown Disney District. It was a great walk to the Theme park. It'll be nice to ride the Trams next time we visit! read more

It's a parking garage. You get directed where to park so you don't get to choose where you park. Also when you are leaving, make sure you are taking the correct escalator to get up to the correct floor that you parked in, otherwise you will need to walk down or up more flights of stairs. read more

Mickey and Friends has lost another star with me. It's not just the tram situation, which is zero, and the long walk. It's mostly about the lack of handicapped spaces that we desperately need. I realize most people don't have this issue, but I do. Because my husband needs a scooter to get around, we need enough space to park, have him able to exit his car door and room for the scooter hitch to fit or room to assemble the scooter. He got a new one that can fit in the trunk unassembled. The staff clearly see our handicapped license plate, but send us up the ramps where there are no handicapped spots, no one directing the parking and no spots large enough to accommodate us. Last time we went, we ended up driving around the lot for 30 minutes to find just one spot and hoped when we returned there would be room to de-assemble the scooter and get us and it back in to the car. I know Disney can do better than this. read more

It's always well organized and all the staff around are friendly. Backpacks get checked thoroughly. The lines to get on the tram are constantly supervised that everyone is behind the yellow line for public safety. This has been m favorite place to park when visiting the park. read more

The structure opens at 7 am. Right at 7 all the cars start to honk with excitement! It's very organized. You pay or show your magic key pass and then after getting a receipt, you follow the directions of the cast members. It's all very simple and depending on which level you are on- you'll be assigned a specific character (ex: monsters inc, mickey, dory) you walk to the elevators and escalators and head down to the security check point. Once through you ride a tram to the parks! If you have a stroller, you'll need to be prepared to fold it up and carry your littles onto the tram. It's a quick couple minute ride, you unload and walk to the park! Very easy process and the tram has always been clean for me! read more

The price has definitely gone up since our last Disney trip, I think in 2021 it was only $20 but this year it was $30. Beside the cost, I really appreciate the team at Mickey and Friends Parking Structure. My husband had accidentally left our car keys in the car when he ran back to change into cozier clothes and put away our newly purchased ornament! He didn't tell me until we were set to leave because he didn't want it to ruin the rest of our trip. Smart man, lol. If you're ever in this kind of trouble where your battery is dead, or you accidentally leave your keys in your car press the blue button usually at a pillar or at the escalator and someone will come up to your location and help at no additional cost. Perfect because AAA won't be able to come by lol read more

Price is $30/car. A bit steep - but it's Disneyland. My cost is covered as part of my Magic Key annual pass, but most people don't have that. Very easy parking - several lanes to choose from when entering. They raise the gates promptly at 7am. Never late. Clean. Great cast members guiding vehicles to exactly where they need to be, making it very efficient. Then take an elevator or escalator to the ground floor where you'll pass through a security checkpoint and hop on a tram to the parks. Could not be more carefree. I can't even imagine parking off the property to save a few dollars. read more

So it's been a few years since I've written my last review here. I'm shook that the price has gone up since then! I was complaining that parking was $25 in my last review -- well guess what? The price went up again! It's now $30 to pay for parking! I get it. The park was closed for a long time during the pandemic, but considering how many people have been coming into the park as of late, I don't see why Disneyland needs to nickel and dime their patrons THAT much! Yelpers, let me know if you have any recommendations for cheaper parking next time I visit the park! read more

If you have a nice car, and think that you're safe at the "happiest place on earth." THEN YOU'RE WRONG! My beautiful 2016 Dodge Charger hellcat was STOLEN from what is supposed to be a heavily guarded, almost prison-like premise. It took NO MORE than 2 hours after arrival for thief's to make my car WHINE all over LA. The security here stinks and are practically minions walking around with no heads. It took them nearly 2 hours to finally admit that my car had in fact been stolen. LIKE COMMON, there's cámaras hanging every other Yao Ming! My final advice, BRING YOUR BEATERS! read more

If you like parking structures, then let me tell you, you're in for a treat at Mickey & Friends Parking Structure! Were there cars? Yes! Were they parked? Double yes! Ok, but seriously... as parking structures go it was pretty much exactly what you'd expect. 5 stars! read more

All I can say is the traffic flows well and the staff park vehicles proficiently. The only problem is there isn't enough staff in the structure and it seems unsafe since three people have already walked off the structure. You would think after one, they would put up fencing or safety barriers so that doesn't happen. read more

Parking Prices as of September 2021: +General Parking: $25 +Preferred Parking: $40 If you or another person going in your group has the Dream Key Pass ($1399.99), general parking is included. Also, be sure to check the Disneyland website before going in case prices are subject to change. Tram Ride: Due to COVID-19, tram rides to and fro the theme parks are currently not available. This suck, but hey, at least, you'll get a really good cardio workout, lol! If you really want to raise the intensity level, walk over the bridge from Downtown Disney back to the parking lots, lol! Keep hydrated, wear comfortable shoes and most importantly, stretch before and after! Otherwise, you may wake up the next day with either blisters, shin splints or charley horses, lol! The parking structure here at Mickey & Friends Parking (along with Pixar Parking) is pretty organized. The Parking Assistants will direct you on where to park (whether it's Standard, Preferred or Handicapped). The parking rows move in one direction only and so, you won't have to fight with other Disney guests for a spot, yay! There are plenty of parking spots and those with electric cars, tons of Electrical Vehicle (EV) chargers! The columns are clearly labeled with various Disney characters assigned to that section. You can always take a picture of that column to remember where you parked. Security Checks: Estimated wait times: Between 20 mins to 30 mins if you're getting there right as the park opens. After 11 a.m., no more than probably 5 mins to 15 mins (we came back on Sunday after breakfast to Downtown Disney and didn't have to wait too long). Yes, your bags will be checked and there are no X-ray machines. Security will have you open up every zipper and rifle through your bag(s). Should you pack your bag(s) in a certain way and don't want it messed up inside, you can let them know and open it for them, which they don't mind. I had my small medicine case with me, and I opened it up myself and shown it to Security with no problems. After that, you go through the metal detector and then make your trek up to the Disney theme parks or to Downtown Disney. They also have various bomb sniffing dogs on-site. Restrooms and Strollers/Handicapped Scooter Rentals: They do have restrooms available as needed as well as strollers and handicapped scooters for rental. Disney has definitely got you covered! Overall, Disney has done a fantastic job with the parking spots. Yes, prices are expensive as heck, but then again, that's expected, you're paying to come into Disney. Lastly, don't forget your Mouse Ears! read more

Highly recommend parking here and adjacent to this structure is the Pixar Parking Structure both equally the same and will get you to the security lines either by elevator or escalators. Trams run simultaneously so the wait time is never over 5 mins until the next one arrives. Expect longer wait times during busy peak hours 8-10am going into the park and after 10pm leaving the park. Although the parking may seem high $30, the time saved and convenience is well worth it. read more

The M&F parking structure needs to better monitor their traffic flow/where they are directing cars. I entered the structure yesterday around 6:50PM and was directed to the Goofy level (Mickey level was closed off) and there was traffic getting up the ramp to the level. This seemed like a bad sign as there is usually never congestion on the ramp (there wasn't congestion getting to a parking/pay booth). I get onto the Goofy level and it is very slow to merge into the main lane, I looked around and didn't see any parking. I went down the third aisle and there was nothing and went around again and went down the fifth aisle and went down another aisle, and again saw nothing. I then went over to the Pixar side and there was nothing. I then had already spent 20 mins going around that on my last lap if I looked down the aisles and didn't see anything I was going to exit and go to the ball road intersection and make a U-turn to go back to the entrance and request to be sent to a different level. I did not see any parking on my last lap so exited and did that and told the parking attendant and they said they are not aware as to what is happening in the structure that it is a different department and that they know parking is available as they'd close the structure if there weren't. Cars were still being funneled onto the goofy level with zero parking and cars were going around and around and waiting for people to leave while I saw parking on the mickey level that was blocked off. I managed to get to a different level and found parking but it took 30 mins all together. This is not the first time this has happened. They have sensors that shows if spaces are occupied but some aisles said there were 1-10 spots but I saw nothing. The management must know that the lights are faulty and it is not 100% accurate and should use these lights to better manage traffic. read more

This Disneyland Resort parking structure is super convenient! It is also one of the biggest & busiest as most guests park here. There is a direct route from the 5 freeway to the parking structure even in the HOV lane! Once inside the 1st level of the parking, there are many cashiers available in the multiline entrance. Disney knows how to move the masses. Then you are directed to your parking spot with the many parking assistants. Make sure you take a picture of where you parked, there are good labels on the floor/level, aisle and spot. Then walk over to the elevators/escalators to get to the trams. This can be a long walk as the structure is HUGE! The street level of the parking area near the trams have the restrooms as needed. I would move to the back area tram loading zone as there are less people in front of you and you can get on an earlier tram. The tram will take you directly to the esplanade, the entrance to Disneyland Park, California Adventure Park and Downtown Disney District. Parking costs $25 Pre-covid, and is only open for the Touch of Disney special event at this time. Recommended! read more
