Where would you suggest getting lockers?

[behg0485]

We are going to be in Disneyland on Tuesday, 10/28/25. We have park hoppers and it will be an Oogie Boogie Bash night. We usually get lockers on our trips but have only done so for 1 park per day. This trip we have park hoppers.

Just wanted to get some opinions or suggestions on where we should get our lockers. DCA, DL, Esplanade?

We will be starting the day at DCA, and close out the night in DL. Would it be a hassle to have a locker in the esplanade? Curious to know what others usually do, TYIA!

I'd probably go with the esplanade since it's more convenient to both parks.

Esplanade is where we usually go, usually on DCA side less traffic over there.

I'd definitely do the esplanade since you'll end at DL. The DL lockers get crazy crowded.

I've never noticed that there were lockers in the esplanade. They have them on both sides outside the entrances?

Great suggestion!

Thanks guys! Also just found a youtube video about the lockers and it looks like there are 3 spots in the esplanade - 1 on DCA side, 1 on DL side, plus another in the picnic area that has extra large lockers big enough to fit coolers or carry-on sized luggage, etc. We've always used the lockers inside the parks, but very nice to know about these other options in case it fills up or if we need the extra space.

So there are lockers on the DL side besides the ones in the picnic area? I don't see those on the map. I also don't see the ones under the railroad tracks, between the entry tunnels. They're still there, right?

According to the video that was posted only about 2 weeks ago they are still there. I'll link it here so you can see exactly what they showed.

Regarding this question, does anyone know if these ever "sell out?" I'm just curious because I'll be going on a Saturday, but I don't know if that makes a big difference. No party or anything. Thank you!

I never had an issue getting a locker. There are so many.

Oh perfect, thank you! That’s very good to know!

The large size lockers occasionally do sell sell out in areas...but there are also large and jumbo lockers in the picnic garden area on the DTD side of the Esplanade that rarely sell out as few know they are there. Small lockers are almost always available.

I would only need a small one so perfect, thank you!

That video doesn't mention lockers under the train station. Have those been removed?

Are you getting Magic Kingdom mixed up with Disneyland?

Lockers do sell out. Large sell out before small. Main Street sells out before other locker locations.

There is a higher chance of lockers selling out when there is a release of new merchandise that is large (ex. popcorn buckets, collectible dolls, etc.). In recent memory, Main Street lockers sold out on D23 Day, the first weekend of the 2024 Holiday season/opening of TBA, the first weekend of the 70th celebration (in May) and on Disneyland's 70th (July 17, 2025).

@Hutch1317 I wouldn't worry about the Main Street lockers selling out on a regular Saturday. Depending on what Disney decides to release, Main Street might sell out the first day of the holiday season (ie. Nov 14).

I think they changed the timing but the lockers outside of DCA used to close earlier than the other esplanade lockers. There was a sign just inside the locker bay with the hours. Definitely something to check out if you plan on using those lockers and staying late.

I just looked at a Disneyland video and I guess you're right, which is weird since I've only been to the MK a couple of times in my life so I'm surprised I would have remembered that. Note that the Disney map you posted is incomplete, since it doesn't show the lockers in the picnic area, so I just assumed that they had missed the other ones, too.
