  • After the extreme surge of crowds during the $50 discount period for kids, crowds have started to taper off at California Adventure. DCA has been a pretty chill place it seems. We'll tour the entire park and find some low wait times, generally take crowds, and a rather pleasant trip around the park. Every l and and every attractions. Our state of DCA report.

    FreshBaked. David, A little exercise for you and Liz. Liz has Lightening Lane, you don't. You both do the same attraction's at the same time. At the end of the day how many rides did Liz do and how many for you. And then do a comparison between the 2 strategy's and was paying $30 extra for "Genie+" worth it? It will be interesting to see how busy the parks are over Easter. It used to be shoulder to shoulder for the next fortnight. Cheers, Chris Perry.

    I have never paid for Genie+. I'm a little spoiled because I am a former cast member. These days I have friends who have DAS, but we don't abuse it, typically we only do 1-2 E tickets per day, and otherwise just enjoy the atmosphere and eat lots of food! When I'm in the park alone, I tend to just enjoy walking around the park and doing lines with historically short lines. I don't mind waiting in a queue so long as it moves quickly. I visited yesterday and rode Soarin, Radiator Springs Racers, Runaway Railway and King Arthur's Carrousel. Also had a Sip and Savor pass that me and my two friends shared. I was in the park from 1-9 pm. Lovely day!

    You are so right about the festivals at DCA. They seem to bring life to a park that still to a certain point lacks things to do.
    The park desperately needs capacity but u til they get that solved the festivals really help.
    I wish they would expand the food and wine a bit more and maybe i overlap it with a Flower and Garden festival.
    I can only imagine how amazing DCA would look with added topiaries, gardens and lots of color. California has the weather for it and it would definitely bring another big crowd

    Just stopped by on Monday and I will say that the park overall wasn't crowded, more people were lined up for Disneyland as opposed to DCA, the max I saw for wait times was 120 minutes, but that was for Radiator Springs Racers, which ofc it was lol. Not fun that it broke down twice in the time we tried to join the line, but we toughed it out and still made it on to beat our timing for LL for Mission Breakout!

    It doesn't seem like you can take any day in isolation on whether or not the parks are less busy overall. There have always been days that are less busy, for whatever reason, it will be interesting to see if there's a trend.

      Well actually I was very lucky, Disneyland was very pleasant this past Saturday. So much so I was able to do all the rides in one park in one day, averaging 8 minutes across all the attractions without Lightning Lane or Single Rider use. I also watched the parade and the half-firework show(because of the rain), and stopped 3 times to eat. I got to Disney at 6:59 am and didn't leave till about 12:30 am, so it was a long but very fun day.

I am interested in only the E-Ticket rides. If I arrive around 9am on Friday, should I rush to Incredicoaster or Radiator Springs Racer? I hope I can find food which have l9w salt content become salty foods cause debilitating migraines with severe nausea. This is why I am restricted to a narrow range of foods.

      Incredicoaster does close on april 8th so theres a chance of that ride being super busy for the weekend. but if you have absolutely nothing planned in the morning other than riding Incredicoaster and radiator springs, then you should be fine no matter what you choose to do first. im sure once the afternoon hits though, its probably gonna be long lines for both all day.

      Spring break for Los Angeles and San Diego are over. Things usually don't really slow down until after Easter. There are still $75 per day three day weekday passes available for SoCal locals so April and May aren't as uncrowded as they used to be but it's still a good time to go. I'm local and my family always goes at least once during spring.

      i think some schools JUST started this week. my friend was there monday and said the lines to get in even in the afternoon was really long. but i think the bulk of spring breakers are done and gone though so it shouldnt really be as bad as the week comes to an end. especially since its supposed to rain over the weekend, that will probably scare most of them away.
      im a local passholder so I go once or twice a week so the long lines didnt really affect me that much but it will be nice to enjoy the food and wine festival without dealing with the big crowds.
