The second stage of the phased reopening of Shanghai Disneyland is expected to serve as a blueprint for Disney’s California parks once Disneyland and Disney California Adventure return following an extended coronavirus closure.

The Shanghai Disneyland theme park in China reopened on May 11 with additional health and safety measures including face masks, temperature checks, reduced attendance, social distancing and increased sanitization.

The communist Chinese government is allowing tourist destinations to increase capacity from 30% to 50% — making Shanghai Disneyland the first Disney park to increase capacity after reopening.

Disney parks in Florida, France and Japan remain in the first stage of reopening. Hong Kong Disneyland reclosed in mid-July amid a spike in COVID-19 cases in the city after being reopened for less than a month. Disneyland, DCA and other California theme parks remain closed indefinitely due to the pandemic.Daily ticket holders and annual passholders will still need to make an advance reservation to visit Shanghai Disneyland, but visitors will no longer be required to select an arrival time. The booking window for advance reservations will also be expanded. Tickets still must be purchased online and will not be available at the front gate.

Shanghai Disneyland can suspend ticket sales and block annual passholders in the event of a “big passenger flow day” that causes the park to reach 50% attendance capacity.The “Ignite the Dream” fireworks show and Mickey’s Storybook Express daytime parade returned to Shanghai Disneyland in late July — about 11 weeks after the park reopened. The Captain Jack Sparrow stunt show and Frozen sing-along show have also returned after temporarily going dark when Shanghai Disneyland initially reopened.

Close-up photo opportunities with Disney, Pixar and Marvel characters are still prohibited with socially-distanced appearances by Disney princesses, Avengers and Toy Story characters found throughout Shanghai Disneyland.
