Key Points:
- Despite June typically marking the start of Disneyland's peak season with high crowd levels, guests are currently experiencing unusually light crowds, especially on weekends.
- Reddit users have posted photos and comments describing the park and parking lots as nearly empty, with wait times for popular rides significantly reduced to 5-10 minutes.
- One key reason cited for the lower attendance is the blocking out of lower-tier Magic Key Passholders, combined with dynamic pricing making tickets more expensive.
- Even usually crowded areas like New Orleans Square appear sparse, although some attractions like Pirates of the Caribbean are temporarily closed for refurbishment.
- According to Thrill Data, the average wait time at Disneyland Park as of mid-afternoon is only 18 minutes, highlighting the current unusually low crowd levels.
