Does Disneyland really check proof of residency at the gate?
I am going to Disneyland in November and want to purchase tickets for the So Cal price. (I live in Fresno) A friend from work used to live in So Cal and still receives mail there, if I buy the tickets online and get them sent to that address and then pick them up, will they check proof of residency at the gate? Has anyone actually tried it?

no, if you type a socal zipcode on disneyland.com you get special discounts. You can cheat by doing that. Disneyland doesnt ask for proof of residency

There are no Southern California discounts on park admission currently (apart from Annual Passports) either online, at the ticket booths, or in local grocery stores. No, they don't check residency ID at the gate. However, online ticket purchases don't result in a physical ticket being mailed. They email a voucher which you must then present to collect your ticket and, if there were Southern California discounts being offered, you would have to present proof of residency at that time.

My friend tried it once, and they asked to see her drivers licence, which had a northern California zip code. They took her to the security, who put a hold on her name, and she cannot go to disneyland for the next 10 years. Good Luck

yes they do you need a photo id to redeem the real tickets

If you pick up the tickets at Disneyland Park they will check your identification and look for a Southern California zip code. If you have the tickets mailed to a Southern California address, they will not check for identification if you show up at the gates with the physical tickets in hand.

Hi, There are currently no discounts for Southern California residents. If you purchase your tickets online, there is no way to prove residency, but like what I said, there is no discount for SoCal residents right now, other than the annual passes, which really isn't a "discount," it's just a better deal if you plan on going many times. If you were to purchase tickets in the future when there are discounts (usually in spring, they have a 2-fer special), they will ask for proof of residency if you purchase tickets at the gate, if you purchase them online, then there is really no way to prove it.
