Celebrating the New Year at Disneyland can be a spectacular experience, but you should be prepared for the long lines and large crowds. New Years Eve is the most crowded day of the year in both Disneyland Parks. Therefore, whether you come alone or with your friends and family, here are some tips to ensure you make the best out of what the park has to offer:

1. Come early. As stated, this is the most crowded day of the year. At some point in the night, security might even prevent new people from entering the park once it’s reached maximum capacity. So come before seven if you can!
2. Make use of the FastTrack passes. FastTrack passes are used both at Disneyland and California Disney Adventure to make your wait for the rides go by faster. Since you can anticipate long lines on this day, make sure you get your FastTrack passes as soon as you enter the park.
3. Dress in layers! The park gets really cold at night, even though it’s in southern California. If you bring extra clothes you want to change into, use the lockers available to store them.
