Disney California Adventure

Conditional. Bags, backpacks, and suitcases are allowed if they don't exceed 24"x15"x18", and are subject to security screening. Max size: 24"x15"x18".

Allowed. Guests may bring in their own water and other non-alcoholic beverages, as long as they aren't in glass containers.

Allowed. Outside food is allowed as long as it doesn't need heating/reheating/processing/refrigeration and isn't in glass containers. Exceptions: Must be declared to security at entry.

Allowed. Medications and medical supplies (including items needing refrigeration or sharps disposal) are accommodated.

Not Allowed. Guests may not bring their own alcohol; alcohol is only permitted if purchased on-site (or at Disneyland Resort hotels). Unlike Disneyland Park, DCA guests can walk around the park with alcohol purchased on-site — this operational detail could only be corroborated via secondary/fan sources, not an official Disney page, so it's noted here rather than built into the structured fields. Exceptions: Wine allowed at select Downtown Disney table-service restaurants with a corkage fee.

Not Allowed. Marijuana, including marijuana-enriched products, is banned throughout the resort regardless of California state law.

Conditional. Small coolers are allowed if they fit the 24"x15"x18" bag size limit; loose or dry ice is not permitted. Max size: 24"x15"x18".

Conditional. Standard strollers are allowed up to 31"x52"; wagons, including stroller wagons, are banned outright regardless of size. Max size: 31" wide x 52" long.

Allowed. Disney California Adventure has a dedicated Baby Care Center (next to Ghirardelli Soda Fountain) with a private nursing room.

Allowed. Guests may bring and use their own wheelchairs/ECVs, and both are available to rent on-site. Max size: 36" wide x 52" long, 3+ wheels required. Fee: Rental: $15/day manual wheelchair, $60/day ECV, plus refundable deposit.

Not Allowed. Scooters, skateboards, inline skates, bicycles, hoverboard-type devices, and shoes with built-in wheels are not allowed. Exceptions: Qualifying wheelchairs/ECVs used as mobility devices remain allowed.

Not Allowed. Drones are explicitly banned.

Allowed. Umbrellas are allowed, and are even listed as a suggested item to pack.

Not Allowed. Horns, whistles, megaphones, artificial noisemakers, flags, and banners are all prohibited.

Conditional. Smoking and vaping are banned throughout the theme parks except in designated outdoor smoking areas.

Conditional. Guests 14+ may not wear costumes or masks in the theme parks (medical exception applies); younger guests' masks can't cover the whole face. Exceptions: Special ticketed events have separate costume rules.

Allowed. Portable chargers/power banks are not restricted; Disney operates third-party charging kiosks throughout the park.
