NEW YORK, NY
Disneyland and Disney California Adventure Park will reopen with limited capacity starting April 30 after being closed for more than a year because of the coronavirus, the entertainment giant said Wednesday March 17.
“We’ve seen the enthusiasm, the craving for people to return to our parks around the world,” Chapek told the CNBC network.
Chapek said as people get vaccinated, they become more confident to travel and stay healthy. He added that Disney will provide temperature checks, masks, social distancing and improved hygiene around its theme parks.
Although amusement parks in Florida have recently reopened with state guidelines with limited capacity, the rules in California have kept parks closed.
New guidance in California allows theme parks to reopen on April 1 with 15% to 35% capacity.
The coronavirus pandemic led Disney to see revenue at its theme parks decline to $16.5 billion last year, down 37% from $26.2 billion the previous year.
