15 Free Things to do at Disneyland, California.

As most of the people say that Disneyland is the Happiest Place On Earth but is also an expensive one and can get even more expensive when you are inside the park. So here I bought some of Disneyโ€™s best-kept secrets which includes some of the free things to do at both the Theme Parks of Disneyland California. Of course all rides and shows in the parks are Free, but there are some other freebies which most of the guests are not aware of.

I hope the following freebies will help thousands of families to get the most out of every visit to Disneyland California.

1. Disneyland Planning Videoย : Disney offers aย free planning videoย that provides a helpful overview of the theme parks, hotels, and Downtown Disney shopping district. So make sure you order one before your visit. This video is extremely helpful in planning your trip.

2. Downtown Disney District : ย Don’t have tickets to Disney’s theme parks?? No problem , you can still enjoy little magic without emptying your wallet at Downtown Disney and I will definitely suggest you to visit this place for sure as it is a shopping and entertainment district, which is located outside both the theme parks . They always have live performances scattered throughout the strip and it is so fun to just watch or Dance to the music. You can also watch Fireworks at night.ย Tip : Parking here is expensive but you can validate it by spending 20$ or more at one of their restaurants (don’t forget to ask for a validation Stamp on your Ticket)

3. Free buttons : I Love these Buttons as they also make a Great souvenirs. Any one can get a button & It does not have to be a special occasion. They have several different ones , First Visit buttonsย – If you are visiting it for the first time , Just married buttonsย – if you are honey mooning at Disneyland. My Favorites areย Birthday or Anniversary buttons , as every cast member wish you happy birthday/Anniversary every time they notice your badge,it actually makes me feel pretty Happy. If none of the above doesn’t fit, you can get Iโ€™m Celebrating button and fill it in whatever you want !

4. Maps & Apps : Maps are available for all park guests in various languages as soon as you enter the park. There’s also a Disneyland App which you can download it for free. This app actually helps you in Navigating your way around the park and see the wait time of every attraction which definitely helps you in not wasting your time in those long waiting lines.

5. Balloon replacement : Did your beautiful character Balloon got popped?? Don’t worry, just take the remnants of the balloon with you to any Disneyland Balloon Cast Member. They will replace your balloon for FREE.

6. Autographs and Photographs : A day before visiting Disneyland, I have been to Hollywood Walk of Fame and ripped my wallet just to take pictures with the characters and so I loaded my wallet with lots of bills thinking I need to pay in the Disneyland Too. But thankfully they are FREE . You can take as many pictures as you want with all the characters with your Camera/Phone. You can also get their autographs which makes a great souvenirs for kids.

7. Fastpasses : In all other theme parks you need to pay some extra $$ to get a fastpass,But Disney provides FASTPASSES for FREE. Yes, with the help of these Fastpasses, you reserve a spot in line, and they tell you when to comeback in order to skip long waiting lines.

8. Dinning : ย If you want to avoid purchasing the kidโ€™s meal then consider eating at any buffet restaurant or Disneyland character diningย at the Disneyland Resort . It’s is free for anyone below three years of age.
