    Line for buses (Jan 2026)
    Luke L.

    Toy Story Parking Area is an official offsite parking lot for Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park. [Rates]: $40 per car or motorcycle, $45 per oversized vehicle, motor home or tractor (without trailer), $50 per bus or tractor (with extended trailer). Magic Key annual passholders receive discounts on parking (25% off parking excluding blockout dates for Explore Key, Enchant Key, and Imagine Key & 50% off parking for Believe Key excluding blockout dates, and free parking for Inspire Key excluding blockout dates). Apparently this is a popular parking lot for annual holders due to discounts. [Process]: Visitors will go through the security check before hopping onto buses to Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park, but once the security check is done then no more secondary/follow-up security check again. [Buses]: Buses are provided and the drop-off point is near the Disneyland Esplanade (the open area between Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park). It was approximately a 8-minute bus ride at 7:45 AM. The lot opens one hour prior to the earliest standard park opening time (7 AM on our visit). The last bus runs until approximately one hour after the last theme park closes. (11 PM on our visit). There was a long waiting line for buses at 6:30 PM (approximately a 30-minute wait). [Pro tip]: For visitors who don't have strollers/babies and willing to stand, then they can actually skip forward and hop onto the bus whenever the staff ask if anyone is willing to stand on the bus. In addition, the security lines were pretty short before 7:30 AM so definitely another plus to come early for the Rope Drop at Disneyland at 8 AM. [Conclusion]: If you are okay with no covered parking (go to Mickey and Friends Parking Structure instead for covered parking), then Toy Story Parking is a solid spot for all-day parking. On rainy or hot days, visitors may want to consider to park at Mickey & Friends Parking Structure.

    Very first line switchback is in the parking lot area before getting on the first ride of the day: ART bus!

    My go-to parking lot going to the parks and convention parking (D23). The Cast Members are friendly and will answer whatever questions you may have. One of the older parking lots. It's the best during colder weather to warm up the vehicle's interior. Though the lot is under the sun (great during colder weather times), its certainly not as crowded than the parking structures (M&F/PP); bus rides keep one dry in the rain, and cool in the summer with AC; Security checkpoint is available at the parking lot until 12 noon, then it reverts to the Harbor Blvd drop-off entrance. The waiting area is much lower-key compared to M&F/PP when the parks are crowded. Yet, there are those who prefer covered parking or the parking structure. It's whatever one prefers. Highly recommend as long as you don't mind having your vehicle under the sun.

    I've been parking at the Toy Story lot lately, and it's much quicker than Mickey & Friends or Pixar Pals. If you arrive in the morning, you clear security right away and can walk straight to the gates, which saves time. In the evening, you'll go through security before entering the park. There's always parking available when I come, both on weekdays and weekends. The shuttle wait has never been too long, and the longest ride to the park was about twenty minutes. It does get more crowded during Oogie Boogie Bash nights, but overall it's a smooth and convenient experience. Definitely my go-to parking spot for Disneyland!

    Yay for the Magic Key holder discount. Woot woot! At 8am on a holiday weekday (Veterans Day) of course there was a bit of a line getting into the uncovered lot. The Disney app helps you with saving where you had parked so you can't get lost looking for your vehicle. The gal at the booth was friendly and informative. The staff is nice and directs you where to go. Then you go through security and wait for the shuttle. The ride is about 5 minutes and drops you in front where you can either walk over to Disneyland or Disneyland California Adventure. This was just a quick trip for me and I left shortly before lunch time. Maybe a 10 minute wait for the shuttle to get back to the lot. It was easy to get back on the street directly to the 5. 4 stars!

    Toy Story Parking is the only way to go when visiting the Happiest Place On Earth! The Parking lot is huge and if it fills up, there is always overflow lots. The tram operators are very nice and helpful . Note, make sure you remember whare you parked "we usually take a quick pick with our cell phone " HAVE FUN.

    This Disney Parking lot opens at 7a.m. We did not park here as we were staying next to it at Homewood Suites Anaheim Convention. We walked from the hotel to the shuttle bus stop. The city shuttle come inside the lot to pick you up. You must go through Disney security first. There were many busses running before Disneyland opens and after. You don't have to wait very long. Once you arrive at Disneyland, you skip the longer security line and go to the gates. The whole process took about 20 to 25 minutes. I highly recommend this lot especially on busy Disney days.

    Current Rates $35 Automobiles and motorcycles $40 RV/Oversized $45 Commercial $55 Preferred Location: Located between W. Katella Ave and Orangewood Ave on S. Harbor Blvd.. Order Of Operations 1) Pay for parking 2) Parking car/use the restroom if needed 3) Go through the metal detectors, line up for the shuttle bus, go inside shuttle bus 4) Exit shuttle bus and go where you wherever you want to go. Up Side: More space in the shuttle bus than the tram. Down Side: There's no covered parking compared to Mickey and Friends Parking Structure.

    Ask the Community - Toy Story Parking

    Ev charging what to know? I am driving a Tesla?

    Located easily onsite.

    Can you take the bus from here without parking a car?

    Hotels nearby inform guests to take the Toy Story parking lot to Disneyland.

    Can I walk to Disneyland from here or is a fence surrounding access.?

    Yes, if you want, you can walk over to Disneyland from the Toy Story parking lot.

    Is there a discount parking here for Magic Key holders? What about the Imagine (lowest) pass? I hear it may be one of the free places to park?

    Not free as it used to be. 10% discount.

    Hello everyone, because i have paid already parking fee online. How will they check or do i have to show them before parking in?

    You will need to show the barcode to the Cast Member at the booth prior to parking.

    What is the closest hotels to stay at to walk to take the shuttle to Disneyland?

    There are walking videos on YouTube that show Homewood Suites Convention Center are right next to Toy Story.

    Do they have scooters after the shuttle drop off?

    Yes you can rent a hoveround and wheel chairs at the park.

    Where is the bus stop located in the parking lot?

    Look for the tall sign that says Disneyland and walk towards it. The buses & security are right near it.

    Is the shuttle crammed with people? Or is there a capacity limit enforced?

    don't know about now, but back in June 2021, they would count off. Was still fairly crowded though. Some would be standing when coming back from the Parks. Going to Parks was usually sitting.

    What time does the shuttle start running in the morning and what time does it stop running at night from the park?

    It starts an hour prior to park opening and an hour after park closing.

    Is the parking lot open now? I didn't see it mentioned on the Disney app and was wondering if they had it open

    Yes it is.

    If I'm walking from a nearby hotel to use the bus to get to Disneyland do I still need to pay an entrance fee to use it or is it free since I'm not parking in their?

    You do not need to pay if you are not parking a vehicle.

    Where can I find a route for this shuttle? Is this the same as goofy parking garage shuttle? I am trying to find a hotel to stay at based off of somewhere that has or is close to a FREE shuttle.

    It doesn't really have a route. If you want to use it you either have to park in the Toy Story lot, or walk in from one of the hotels close to it and board the shuttle in the parking lot.

    I know the handicapped parking is very close to the shuttles, but how easy is it for you to get a wheelchair on the bus? Is there a designated spot on there for wheelchairs or do they have handicapped shuttles like with the M&F structure?

    All Toy Story buses have wheelchair ramps, accessible loading area with separate line from other guest, section on the bus reserved for wheelchair/scooters etc. and use 4 point tie downs. Very easy for guest.

    Hi. We are walking over from Homewood and my mother will be on an electric scooter. Does the Toy Story tram/bus to the park acommodate these scooters since it's not a foldable wheelchair?

    Yes, the Buses do accommodate scooters, wheelchairs, walkers. The bus driver will lock and secure the chairs. There is a special line that you do not have to wait with the general public.

    I'm staying at the Homewood Suites (Disney Good Neighbor Hotel) next door - can I walk over and use this lot?

    Yes, you can.

    Do you have to fold your stroller in this lot when you take the bus?

    Yes so that it doesn't block the exit for other passengers.

Non-likes: - The parking cost in general. Kinda makes Fashion Island and South Coast Plaza appealing with their free parking, doncha think? - They should have a marker on the parking ticket so you KNOW it's validated before you walk back to the parking garage. The FiRE+iCE waiter validated my parking, but the ticket still looks the same. Waitress told me the machine will know via barcode. But when I went to pay, my parking wasn't validated after all. I've been hoodwinked. - If you're facing the two elevators near the plaza as if you're about to enter one, the one on the right wasn't working. We were on floor 2, we stepped in and hit 1, the elevator doors closed but the elevator didn't move. The button didn't even light up. We stepped out, stepped back in, hit 1 again, elevator still didn't move. Don't get stuck in there! oh you're welcome Jasn.

Most people park here because they think it's for the movies but in actually, anyone can park here. I went to go eat at a resturant, stopped by the bank and taking my time, enjoying the breeze while I watch the sunset on the top parking lot floor. You'll be surprised but you don't have to fight for parking on the first floor for safety. I passed so many cars parked along the 3 floors I drove thru to get to the top and it's still half full up here. There's also a working elevator, if your feeling too lazy to walk down the stairs. Plus I'd rather park here than on Downey St, especially when people are crossing to get to the clubs and what not. Edit : Forgot to mention but this can be alternative parking for going to the restaurants across Firestone. I mean, who really wants to park their car so close to other cars that you have to safely get in and out of it without hitting them. Nuh uh, I'd rather park here and walk a few mins over instead. But that's just me.
