Tickets for the Shanghai theme park, Walt Disney’s sixth in the world, will go on sale to the public from March 28. The park is scheduled to open on June 16.
A ticket will provide admission to all of the park’s activities and attractions.
The two ticket options were meant to “help spread visits throughout the year”, said the park, which was expecting “extraordinary demand”.
The park will limit the maximum number of guests allowed in the park at any one time – a practice common to all Disney parks.
Described as “distinctly Chinese”, the Shanghai Disneyland will feature Shanghai-style Shikumen architecture and a garden mosaic depicting the 12 animals of the Chinese zodiac using Disney characters.
