We have exciting news regarding when Disneyland will be able to reopen!
Disneyland
Today, California Governor Gavin Newsom shared updates regarding the state’s guidelines in response to the global health crisis.
These updated guidelines will allow California theme parks to reopen on April 1st, as reported by the Orange County Register.

Beginning on the first of April, theme parks in California will be able to reopen at 15% capacity in the “substantial” tier. Further capacity adjustments can be made once counties are in the “moderate” and “minimal” tier. California residents will be the only guests permitted to attend the reopened parks.

Orange County, where Disneyland is located, is currently in the “widespread” tier, but is anticipated to move into the “substantial” tier sometime in the next week. If the county does move into the “substantial” tier, it would have the potential to reopen on April 1st.

Earlier today, Governor Newsom announced a new plan that would allow counties to move to lower tiers more easily, meaning they would be able to loosen some restrictions. This plan also includes a major rollout of vaccines for communities that were significantly impacted by the pandemic.

For a county in the “widespread” tier — defined as having more than seven cases per 100,000 — to be able to move to the “substantial” tier, a county would need to have 4-7 cases per 100,000 according to Newsom’s new guidelines. This small adjustment in numbers makes it easier for counties to reduce restrictions.

California did such a awful handling all this. So many lost their jobs and livelihood just to make something so political. Florida handled this way better than California. If the governor really cared about this, he would follow his own rules which he did not as we all know. So that in itself made it worst due to the fact people stop listening to him after he did that.
I’ll believe it when I see it.
I was hoping the re-opening would allow out of state guest, too.
The first day they may be able to open is April Fools Day? Hmmmm….
As mentioned above, Orange County needs to be in and stay in the red tier. As of today they are heading that direction as well as other counties. If so, “A Touch of Disney” goes until April 19, so what is going to happen with the people that have tickets and the park opens on the 1st? It would be nice if they allow those people exchange those tickets and pay the difference for regular park tickets.
I think you have a typo here.
Based on this articles information, MORE people would need to be infected each day in order to move to a better tier. That makes absolutely no sense.
“For a county in the “widespread” tier to be able to move to the “substantial” tier, it would need to have a daily rate of new COVID-19 cases of 10 per 10,000, instead of 7 per 10,000, according to Newsom’s new guidelines.”
F course we all know why this is REALLY/ACTUALLY being even considered.
Because the state has begun the process of Recalling Gavin Newsome. Which in state terms means Impeachment of the governor. He was like OH Crap! How do we get their focus off of me? Got it. Re open Disneyland.
Thanks, Brandon. I’m having an editor revisit the language here.
