Top things to do in Anaheim

Landmarks, outdoor escapes and local culture for your Anaheim itinerary.

Disneyland Resort

Plan visits to Disneyland Park, Disney California Adventure Park and Downtown Disney separately. Confirm theme park admission by age, ticket type and same day, same park reservation rules; the shopping and dining district and theme park tickets have different access scopes.

Angel Stadium of Anaheim

At 2000 Gene Autry Way, choose a Los Angeles Angels home game or a stadium tour offered under the team's current arrangements. Games, tours and outside areas have different rules; entry on a day without an event is not assumed.

Honda Center

Choose Anaheim Ducks hockey, a concert or another scheduled event at 2695 E Katella Avenue. Confirm tickets, parking and admission for the specific event rather than treating the arena as a permanently open exhibition.

Anaheim Convention Center

Choose conventions, trade shows or public events from the center's and organizers' calendars. Registration and ticket rules differ by event; confirm public access rather than assuming every hall is open for unrestricted visits.

Anaheim city transport

Compare practical ways to travel from the airport and around the city.

Where to stay in Anaheim

Choose lodging near Disneyland Resort or the Anaheim Convention Center to suit your itinerary.

Anaheim Resort area

Editorial suggestion: compare lodging around Anaheim Resort for a park focused visit, checking routes to the actual entrance and the return trip. Confirm hotel transfers, parking and extra charges for your booking; the former ART service cannot be assumed available.

Convention and Katella area

Editorial suggestion: for a convention, sports event or performance, compare lodging around Katella against the venue you actually need. The convention center, stadium, Honda Center and Grove have separate entrances; check proximity and evening return plans rather than assuming walkability from an area name.

Anaheim trip planning

Consider ARTIC's rail, bus and taxi options when planning travel; check current routes and timetables with operators.

Frequently asked questions about Anaheim

Does the population include Orange County or metropolitan Los Angeles?

No. The 341,008 figure is the US Census Bureau's July 1, 2025 resident estimate for Anaheim city limits, not Orange County, the metropolitan area or visitor numbers.

Is a ticket alone enough to enter a Disneyland theme park?

Under the operator's current rules, guests aged three and older need a valid ticket or Magic Key and a reservation for the same park and date. Ticket, date and capacity limits differ, so check your own booking; lodging or a Downtown Disney visit does not replace theme park admission eligibility.

Can visitors still use ART resort transit?

ART's operator ended all transit services on March 31, 2026, so old ART routes are not current travel options. OCTA, hotel operated transfers and Disney parking area transport are different services; check their individual current arrangements.

Which airport is the primary gateway on this page?

This page uses John Wayne Airport (SNA) as its primary airport. Disney also lists Southern California options including LGB, LAX, ONT, BUR and SAN. These airports are in different city areas and need separate transfer plans; no unverified city center distances or fixed journey times are provided.

How many days should a first visit allow?

Editorial suggestion: allow two to four days, choosing one or both theme parks first, then adding a game, convention or performance around its calendar. This is itinerary advice, not ticket validity or a promise to cover every venue.

Is ARTIC train station a Disneyland entrance?

No. ARTIC at 2626 E Katella Avenue is a rail and transport connection station. Arrange separate arrival and return travel for parks, lodging and other venues, using current providers rather than old ART shuttle routes.
