Disneyland Can Return to Full Capacity After California Ends Restrictions June 15

Disneyland has announced that temperature screenings beginning June 15, after California announced they will be Removing Capacity and Physical Distancing Requirements.

The first and biggest change is the removal of all capacity limits and physical distancing requirements, regardless of setting. That means bars, restaurants, concert venues, grocery stores and everything in between can open at full capacity — if they so choose.

Proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test won’t be necessary to do practically anything. However, the state is planning to keep some recommendations — and one requirement — on “mega events” in place:

  • At outdoor live events with more than 10,000 people, California will recommend venues have a verification of vaccination/negative test in place. Those who aren’t vaccinated or who don’t show a negative test result can still enter if they wear a mask. This is a recommendation from the state, not a requirement.
  • Indoor venues with 5,000 or more people should implement a similar verification. However, at these indoor events, non-vaccinated people who don’t show a negative COVID-19 test result shouldn’t enter, the state says. This is a requirement, not a recommendation.

When it comes to masking, California is planning to fully align with CDC guidance come June 15.

All of California’s restrictions on travel outside the state will be lifted. Any travel restrictions down the line will be in alignment with the CDC, Health and Human Services Secretary Dr. Mark Ghaly said on a call with reporters Friday.

California is also not considering creating a vaccine passport at this time, Ghaly said.
