What is an undated ticket?
An undated ticket is an admission ticket you buy without a set date. You decide on your visit day later, rather than fixing it when you buy. The most flexible one is called the Billet Liberté: it stays valid for one year from purchase. Only three dates are excluded: 14 July, 31 October and 31 December. It comes in a one-park or two-park version for the day.
This ticket is usually more expensive than a dated ticket, because it gives you more freedom. If you can’t decide between the different tickets, I compare them all in my guide to tickets. To find out exactly what your ticket covers (or doesn’t), see what’s included in the ticket.
If you haven’t bought your ticket yet, start with the tutorial on buying your tickets. Here, I’m assuming your undated ticket is already bought: all that’s left is to register your date.
The pros
- Buy now and choose your date later
- Valid for one year, ideal if your plans aren’t fixed
- Date can be changed, you can switch days before your visit
The downsides
- More expensive than a dated ticket for the same period
- You must book a date before you go
- Your date depends on availability, some days are already full
- Not valid on 14 July, 31 October or 31 December

Who needs to book a visit date?
The rule is simple: every ticket or pass without a date needs a visit day booked in advance. Tickets that already carry a date need nothing more.
- Affected: undated ticket (Billet Liberté) You must register a date before you go.
- Affected: annual passholders (Disneyland Pass) Same requirement, but with its own rules. I cover this in my dedicated Disneyland Pass guide.
- Not affected: dated ticket The date is already on the ticket, nothing to book.
- Not affected: Disney hotel guests Entry is guaranteed on every day of your stay, the date is handled automatically.
Why do you need to book a date?
Disneyland Paris limits the number of visitors per day to manage park capacity better. Date booking spreads visits out and avoids overcrowded days. The system arrived when the parks reopened on 15 July 2020 (at the time, to manage visitor numbers), then became permanent. It’s still in place in 2026.
With a dated ticket, the date is already set, so no booking is needed. With an undated ticket, it’s up to you to say which day you’ll come.
Registering your date: the step-by-step tutorial
Registration is done only on the Disneyland Paris website, on the platform dedicated to visit date booking (not in the mobile app). Have your ticket reference to hand: it’s the number used to link your ticket to your account.
Booking becomes possible once the ticket is linked to your account, a short while after purchase while it’s being activated. Allow a few minutes to add a date to your ticket.
Log in to your Disney account
Go to the Disneyland Paris booking platform (in French) and log in to your Disney account. If you don’t have one, create it: you need one to register a ticket.
Click Register a ticket or pass
Once you’re logged in, find the Register a ticket or pass button and click it to start linking your ticket.
Enter your ticket reference
On the "Link your tickets and Passes" page, enter the reference number of your undated ticket: it has 16 to 30 digits and is printed on the ticket (an example on screen shows you where to find it). You can link several at once. Check the number carefully: a wrong reference stops you booking.
Choose your date on the calendar
A calendar appears. Select your visit day from the dates in green (available). Dates in grey can’t be booked, and a crossed-out date is already booked.
Check and accept the terms
Check the summary (the right ticket, the right day), accept the terms of sale, then click Continue to confirm your booking.
Get your confirmation by email
Your date is confirmed on screen, and a summary email is sent to you. On the day of your visit, you get in by showing your ticket at the turnstiles, where it’s scanned (the booked date is already linked to it). Keep the email safe: it serves as proof if anything goes wrong, but it’s not what gets you in.
Reading the booking calendar
On the registration calendar, each colour has a meaning. Be careful not to mix it up with the colours of the price periods for dated tickets, which are about price, not availability.
- Green: date available You can book this day for your undated ticket.
- Blue: another type of ticket These dates don’t apply to undated tickets: they’re for another type of ticket, such as a pass.
- Grey: date unavailable The day is sold out or can no longer be booked.
- White: not open yet The date isn’t open for booking yet: check back later, new dates open up over the months.
When should you book your date (and what if it’s full)?
Availability is limited and dates open in waves, usually several months ahead, with new dates released over the months.
If your day shows in grey, it can no longer be booked: choose another date in green, or keep an eye on the calendar, as some days can reopen. If a green date appeals but you’d like a quieter day, I help you aim for the right period in the crowd guide.

Frequently asked questions
01 Do I need to book my visit date with my ticket?
Yes, in most cases. With an undated ticket (Billet Liberté), you have to register your visit date in advance on the official website, otherwise you may be refused entry. Dated tickets and Bon Plan tickets are already tied to a specific date chosen when you buy. You then go straight to the turnstiles, without stopping at a ticket desk on site.
02 Where do I register the date for my undated ticket?
On the official Disneyland Paris website, on the dedicated ticket and pass registration platform (in French). You can’t book it in the mobile app. You need a Disney account.
03 Can I change the booked date of an undated ticket?
Yes. You can cancel your booking until 10:00 (French time) on the booked day, without losing your ticket. To change day, cancel and then book a new date: only this new booking depends on availability.
04 What if the date I want is full?
If your day shows in grey, it can no longer be booked. Choose another date in green, or keep an eye on the calendar: new dates open regularly and some days can open up again. To aim for a quiet day with availability, see the crowd calendar.
05 How do I get my tickets: do I need to print them?
Your tickets arrive by email straight after you buy, as an e-ticket. On the day, you show it on your phone (the QR code is enough) or printed, whichever you prefer. If you’d really like a physical ticket, ask for one by phone from the booking centre (+33 9 69 32 60 61) up to 14 working days before your visit date: there’s a charge for delivery. You can also link your tickets to your account and to the Disneyland Paris app.
06 Why do ticket prices keep changing?
Since November 2024, Disneyland Paris has used dynamic pricing on all its tickets. The price of the same ticket varies with the visit date, demand and when you buy. The busiest periods (French school holidays, Christmas, Halloween, long weekends) are the most expensive, and prices go up as the date gets closer. A colour-coded calendar shows the price for each date.
