Disneyland Tips for Smokers

Smokers Guide to the Disneyland Resort

By Kayte Deioma, About.com

California has tough smoking restrictions and Disneyland is even tougher. Smoking is prohibited even in outdoor areas except for designated smoking areas.

Designated smoking areas:

Disneyland:
  • New Orleans Square, outside Harbor Galley
  • Frontierland, near Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
  • Fantasyland, near Matterhorn Bobsleds
  • Main Entry Plaza outside both theme parks
Disney's California Adventure:
  • Hollywood Pictures Backlot, near Muppet*Vision 3D
  • Golden State, near Soarin' Over California
  • Golden State, near Grizzly River Run
  • Paradise Pier, near Golden Zephyr
  • Paradise Pier, near Sun Wheel
Downtown Disney District:
Smoking is prohibited inside stores, dining areas and restrooms.

Smoke less.You might consider carrying some nicotine gum so you can spend more time with your group enjoying the rides and less time escaping to designated smoking areas.

Ashtrays are available in smoking areas and are built into the top of trash cans in Downtown Disney. Depositing cigarette butts anywhere else may invoke the wrath of park staff wandering around with brooms and dustpans.

Buying Cigarettes. Pack your smokes with you because you can't get them anywhere in the Disneyland parks and may pay $5 for a pack in a hotel vending machine.

Hotels. Of the three Disneyland Resort hotels, the Paradise Pier Hotel has its smoking rooms on the 13th floor, the Disneyland Hotel has smoking rooms on the second floor of one tower and the Grand Californian is completely smoke free. Many other hotels in the area are also smoke free, meaning no smoking anywhere in the hotel rooms or common areas, so be sure to check when making reservations.
