Disneyland lets you book dining up to 60 days ahead. Disney does not publish a time. In our checks new dates usually appeared a few minutes after 6:00 AM Pacific.
Nobody can book a table further ahead, hotel guests included. If a restaurant shows nothing just after 6:00 AM, check again at 6:15. On the 6 mornings we logged (August 28 to September 2, 2026), our checks saw a table at nearly every restaurant by then. If yours still shows nothing, it may have no time for your party size, so set an alert for cancellations.

What time do Disneyland day-60 tables actually appear?
Disney does not publish this, so we time it. Each morning we check the date that has just reached 60 days out. We check just after midnight Pacific, then again and again from 2:30 AM until the date has loaded, and at least until 7:00 AM. We log the first check that shows each restaurant with a bookable time for a party of 2. We add each new morning after it is logged. The table covers the last 45 days.
33 full opening mornings logged (August 28, 2026 to October 1, 2026). We left out the morning of August 27, 2026. We first saw tables at 7:50 AM PT, and we have no check from shortly before that, so we cannot tell when they loaded. We left out the morning of September 21, 2026. We first saw tables at 6:01 AM PT, and we have no check from shortly before that, so we cannot tell when they loaded. We left out the morning of September 29, 2026. We first saw tables at 6:06 AM PT, and we have no check from shortly before that, so we cannot tell when they loaded. Our first check to see a table came at a median of 6:05 PT (earliest 6:00, latest 6:10).

These shares count only restaurants that appeared in Disney's list for the date during our checks. Disney lists a restaurant only when it has a time left. A restaurant that was full, closed, or loaded after our checks ended does not appear here.

Times are when our check first saw a bookable time for a party of 2 on the date 60 days out. The real load can be earlier, at any time after our previous check. A restaurant with fewer mornings showed no bookable time for a party of 2 in our checks on the other mornings. That usually means it had no time for a party of 2 that day, or the event was not running. This is not Disney's data and not a promise about your morning.
'Up to 60 days': what Disney says
Disney's Disneyland FAQ says dining reservations can be made up to 60 days in advance. Disney uses the same words for Walt Disney World. It gives no time of day for Disneyland.
6:00 AM Pacific is 9:00 AM Eastern. In the UK it is about 2:00 PM for most of the year, and about 1:00 PM in the weeks when the US and UK clocks change on different dates. Our Disneyland calculator gives you the day-60 morning for any date, in your time zone.
Staying at a Disneyland hotel?
Disneyland hotel guests get no longer booking window. They book dining 60 days ahead, like everyone else. They do get preferred access to a limited number of reservations at select Disneyland Resort hotel restaurants, for the dates of their stay. It is first come, first served, and Disney does not promise a table.
Not showing 60 days out? What to do
If a restaurant shows nothing just after 6:00 AM, check again at 6:15. On the 6 mornings we logged (August 28 to September 2, 2026), our checks saw a table at nearly every restaurant by then. If yours still shows nothing, it may have no time for your party size, so set an alert for cancellations. Blue Bayou is known as one of the hardest Disneyland tables.
A MagicFinders alert set before the date opens shows as Scheduled. It starts checking on the opening morning and emails you when your restaurant, date and party size show a table. You book in your own Disney account. You can set it for any date up to 180 days away.
Once 7 full mornings are logged, the first section of this page shows, from our own checks, the share of restaurants showing a table by each time from 3:00 to 8:00 AM Pacific.
Walk-up venues: Oga's Cantina
Oga's Cantina at Disneyland no longer takes reservations. It has been walk-up only since August 19, 2025, so there is no day-60 morning for it and no alert to set. You join a standby line at the entrance. Rules for single restaurants change. When one does, we fix this page and update the date it was last checked.
After the window: cancellations
Most Disneyland restaurants use the same basic terms as Walt Disney World: cancel at least 2 hours before to avoid a $10-per-person fee. Each restaurant lists its own policy on its Disney page, and your confirmation email shows the terms for your booking. Dessert parties and dining packages have their own terms. The World of Color Dessert Party, for example, needs a day's notice.
Once a date is open, tables come back when other guests cancel. Keep an alert on through your trip. Openings can appear at any hour, and popular tables can go in minutes.
Does Disneyland release cancelled reservations at a set time?
No. Cancelled Disneyland tables come back one at a time, at any hour. Planning guides say the same day is often the best time to find one. Our own timing will show below once we have 30 days on record.
Can I join a walk-up list instead?
Often, yes, on the day. Select Disneyland Resort table-service restaurants and lounges offer a walk-up list in the Disneyland app when they have space. A walk-up list cannot be joined in advance, so it is a same-day fallback, not a plan.
When cancelled Disneyland tables come back
Once the numbers are ready, this block shows two things from our own checks: the time of day cancelled Disneyland tables came back, and how many minutes an opening stayed bookable as we saw it. Each comes with its sample size and date range.
Questions
Do Disneyland dining reservations open at midnight?
Not in our checks. On the 6 mornings we logged (August 28 to September 2, 2026), our checks just after midnight and from 2:30 AM saw no new table before 6:00 AM Pacific. Disney publishes no time.
Is the Disneyland window the same as Disney World's?
Both resorts open dining 60 days before the date. At Walt Disney World, guests at a Disney Resort hotel can book their whole stay, up to a 10-night stay, starting 60 days before check-in. Disneyland has no such rule. Disney World says new dates open at about 6:00 AM Eastern. Disneyland publishes no time, and in our checks its dates usually appeared within minutes of 6:00 AM Pacific.
Can I set a Disneyland alert before the window opens?
Yes, for any date up to 180 days away. It shows as Scheduled and starts checking on the opening morning.
Which Disneyland venues can MagicFinders watch?
Disneyland Resort restaurants and lounges that take reservations on Disney's site, including Downtown Disney. Dining events such as dessert parties and dining packages. And rooms at the Disneyland Resort hotels.
Is this page official?
No. MagicFinders is independent and not affiliated with Disney. Disneyland's dining FAQ, linked below, is the authority on the 60-day window. The opening times on this page come from our own checks, not from Disney.
Tell us the restaurant, date and party size. We check around the clock, starting the morning 60 days before your date. Dates in the next 2 days are checked every few minutes, day and night. Later dates are checked less often, some of them less often still at night, and less often still when our checks are busy. When a check finds an opening, we email you right away. With a Trip Pass, we can text you too. You book it in your own Disney account. We never ask for your Disney login.
Set a free alert3 free alerts at a time, up to 2 of them restaurants. Each restaurant or event alert covers one date. A $24 Trip Pass is one payment: up to 12 alerts at a time, date ranges of up to 7 days, and 90 days of checking. Nothing renews. See Trip Pass. An alert is not a reservation. Popular tables and rooms can go in minutes.
