Overview of Disneyland in June
Crowds
June is one of the busiest months at Disneyland. Utilizing a crowd forecast calendar can help provide day-by-day predictions, significantly enhancing your visit experience. Expect larger crowds the day after new attractions open, as these popular rides tend to remain busy throughout the summer. Moreover, you can shorten your wait times with Fastpasses and Maxpasses.
Disneyland Weather in June
June can be clouded with fog as ocean breezes create conditions colloquially referred to as “June Gloom.” The average humidity during this period hovers around 70 percent.
- Average High Temperature: 72°F (22°C)
- Average Low Temperature: 60°F (17°C)
- Humidity: 70 percent
- Daylight: On June 21, the longest day of the year, you can enjoy approximately 14.5 hours of daylight in the parks.
For reference, Anaheim’s record low temperature stands at 30 degrees, while the record high reaches 108 degrees.
Closures
Aside from major renovations that require several months, an advantage of the increased crowds in June is that virtually all rides will be operational. Expect only brief closures for routine maintenance.
Hours
Generally, Disneyland opens for 14 to 16 hours each day in June. The operating hours for California Adventure may vary slightly.
What to Pack
Layered clothing is essential for your trip. It’s advisable to start with a comfortable base layer for warmer conditions, adding light layers for potential rain or cooler weather, especially as temperatures drop in the evening. A water-repellent jacket is particularly valuable if you plan to enjoy shows like Fantasmic! or World of Color. Additionally, don’t forget cooling neckbands, hats, and water bottles.
June Events at Disneyland
Typically, new rides and attractions are announced at the beginning of June. These rides often offer a “soft opening” before their official launch, allowing lucky visitors an early glimpse. June also sees the continuation of Disneyland’s annual Grad Night events, featuring after-hours graduation celebrations in California Adventure. Consequently, expect larger crowds throughout the day on these event dates.
June Travel Tips
- Significant ticket discounts are generally difficult to find in June.
- Hotel rates will peak during this summer month.
- When major new attractions are launched, some areas of the park might temporarily close for press previews the day prior to their official opening.
- Despite the crowds, an upside to visiting Disneyland during these busy times is that nearly all rides will operate as expected, barring time for routine maintenance.
