Disney’s 6 “Castle” Theme Parks Around the World (Left to Right: Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World FL, Disneyland Paris, Disneyland in Anaheim, Tokyo Disneyland, Shanghai Disneyland, Hong Kong Disneyland)

Updated March 1, 2019

In October of 2017, I eagerly boarded a train to experience my first ever International Disney Park — Disneyland Paris. A park which I would later refer to as my ‘gateway park.’ It opened me up to a Willy-Wonka-golden-ticket-sized quest to conquer all of the Disney Theme Parks in the World. As of February 2019, in my lifetime I have visited 11 out of the 12 Disney Theme Parks worldwide — with only Hong Kong Disneyland remaining.

In fact, in the short 13 months from October of 2017 to November of 2018, I visited 10 out of the 12 Disney Theme Parks worldwide.

I only skipped two of the Disney parks during the October of 2017 — November of 2018 time period due to extensive construction. The construction of Toy Story Land, Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge, and Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway at Disney’s Hollywood Studios (Walt Disney World Florida) made a day-visit counterintuitive as I am often in Florida. This is especially true as my last visit to Disney’s Hollywood Studios was still fairly recently in February of 2016.
