Disneyland and Disney California Adventure (DCA) are reopening to out-of-state guests on June 15, the Disney Parks announced on Wednesday.
Disneyland Resort's public relations manager, Kelsey Lynch, said in an official blog post that the parks' website would now allow out-of-state guests to start booking future trips.
"The State of California strongly recommends that all guests be fully vaccinated or obtain a negative COVID-19 test prior to entering the theme parks," Lynch wrote. "In addition, all guests will be required to wear an approved face covering throughout their visit at the Disneyland Resort."
The parks will open to full capacity on the same date: June 15, California Gov. Gavin Newsom announced Tuesday.
Disneyland Resort shut down last March amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Downtown Disney, the resort's retail and restaurant district connecting the two parks, reopened last summer.
The two parks reopened at limited capacity to California residents only on April 30. In November, Disney Califonia Adventure opened partially as an extension of the resort's shopping district. Guests could only shop and dine inside of a small section of DCA.
