Disneyland Park Entrance

[dopeydoc&sleepy]

I've read several threads that suggest entering Disneyland Park through gates 13 and 20. Why those gates?

I believe those are the ones farthest to the left of the two halves, and it just tends to be that people gravitate there last. There lines will usually be shorter. I think sometimes it takes longer for the CM's that will run them to get there, I don't know if it maybe has something to do with them watching the lines and deciding how many to open? We always try to be in a line to the left.

Line 13 splits into 2 because line 14 is blocked by a planter, so the line for 13 fees into 14....or something like that

I believe those gates have trees in front of them so people tend to not line up in front of them. Be aware that some days they don't open every gate. Sometimes they only open even numbered gates, for example.

We lined up at Gate 13 this past week because that is where "everyone" said to line up. There is a planter centered directly behind Gate 13, so although the line there wasn't any shorter than the other lines when we arrived (30+ minutes before park opening), I believe it ultimately was shorter for people behind us because the planter made it more difficult for people to get in line.

When we were there on Wed, Thurs, and Fri of last week, the line for Gate 13 did not feed into any other Gates...maybe it does other times though, I don't know.

When we went this summer, the gate 13 line split off into the gate 14 line because there is a big tree smack in front of gate 14. There is no room for a line for 14. One day gate 14 was open. Another day, they did not open gate 14. It is worth a try to get in the gate 13 line.
