Does disneyland ever close?
Many situations can cause a Disney park to close, but it is rare that it happens. The parks, especially Disneyland, will close the gates but still be in operation due to reaching capacity on busy days, but it is rare for the parks to shut down completely to all guests.
Yes! Disneyland Resort is open from "Happy New Year" all the way through "Happy Holidays" and everything in between! I know some theme parks operate seasonally (such as the one near my own home) but Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park know that there's room for magic in every season.
Some outdoor attractions will close when it rains at Disneyland but all indoor attractions and everything else in the park will stay open.
One of the great things about being the Most Magical Place on Earth is that it is open 365 days a year! Of course, there might be the occasional closure due to inclement or severe weather, or special events being held at the parks, but other than that you can just about bet on the Walt Disney World Resort being open.
The first unexpected closure of Disneyland came 8 years after the park opened. Disneyland closed its gates on November 23, 1963, the day after the assassination of President John F.

Disneyland is the happiest place on Earth, and it's also the most open place on the planet, allowing in guests 365 days a year. Since the flagship park in Anaheim, California, opened in July 1955, Disneyland has famously only had three unscheduled closures in its 65-year history — until now.
When Disneyland Park or Disney California Adventure Park closes and the evening party begins, discover plenty to see and do. Listen to live performances and celebrated curated tunes into the night. Ride select attractions throughout the night—usually with shorter wait times.
Disneyland in the Rain Park Operations
Disneyland Resort is open rain or shine and many guests still make it to the parks during the rain because they don't want to miss out on their vacation time. There are a few attractions that will close during rain, but many remain open and Genie+ still works in the rain too.
Inclement weather may also affect entertainment—including shows and parades—in both parks. All outdoor attractions will close when lightning is observed in the area. We regularly update our Disneyland Resort Rules to ensure you have a safe and enjoyable experience.

Disneyland's Splash Mountain has officially closed after more than 33 years at the California resort. Disney announced plans to close Splash Mountain – at Disneyland and Walt Disney World – in 2020 after a petition to change the beloved water ride's theme went viral.
Hurricane Irma was only the fifth time the park has been closed since it opened in 1971. It is typically open every day of the year. NBC News has previously reported that each previous time Disney World was closed was also for an impeding hurricane — Floyd in 1999, Frances in 2004, and Jeanne in 2004.
Disneyland Park Ride closures:
Splash Mountain is closed and is being re-themed. Tarzan's Treehouse is closed until further notice. Wonderous Journeys ends on August 31, 2023. The French Market restaurant and the Mint Julep bar are closed and will reopen on September 7, 2023 as Tiana's Place.

anyway, yes, it does happen, or at least, it is attempted, but it is pointless. there would be no reason to stay in the park overnight. the park is full of cms making the park magical for the next day.
Disney Parks do sometimes close early. The early closures are typically the result of a special ticketed event such as Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party or Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party.
However, when planning a trip to the Disneyland Resort, expect lower crowds from mid-September through mid-November (before the Thanksgiving break). Mid-January through mid-March is another time when potentially lower crowds are expected.
How long will the Disneyland 100 years last?
We expect the celebration to last until at least January 2024, but that is just a guess. I recommend keeping an eye on the Disney Parks Blog for all official updates about the Disney100 Celebration.
Weekdays are less crowded than weekends, especially Monday-Thursdays. On weekends, Sundays are usually less crowded than Saturdays. Regular weekends tend to be less crowded than holiday weekends.
