Both Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea will reopen on the same day and will implement several measures in accordance with the Amusement Park and Theme Park New Coronavirus Infection Containment Guidelines that were developed based on the government’s Basic Policies for Novel Coronavirus Disease Control.

  • Face masks are required at all times inside the parks, except when dining.
    • Exception: During the summer season when the temperature and humidity are high, if guests are outdoors with adequate distance from other people, masks may be removed
  • Maintain social distancing will be enforced with markings installed in facility queues, seats, restaurant tables, benches, etc., and guests are asked to cooperate in order to maintain social distancing.
  • Hand sanitizers are placed in attractions, shops, restaurants, restrooms and other locations in the Park
