Disney's California Parks Reopen April 30: Good Luck Getting a Ticket
After a long and grueling hiatus, Walt Disney's (NYSE: DIS) California theme parks will be reopening on April 30. Disney closed the turnstiles in March of last year in response to the outbreak of COVID-19. California has been one of the hardest-hit states throughout the pandemic, and consequently has put in place some of the strictest business restrictions in all the United States.
The House of Mouse has been lobbying the state for the right to reopen. Pointing to the successful and safe reopening of its parks in Florida, it argued it could follow the same protocols for its parks in California. Fortunately for shareholders and fans, the parks will be opening their doors at the end of the month. Pent-up demand from Californians who have been cooped up indoors for almost a year could make tickets for admission a hot commodity.
