Disneyland Paris - Park Tickets

Does anyone know if tickets have to be booked in advance or if they can be purchased at the gate on arrival at Disney?

We are hoping to go sometime around christmas, and dont no whether to pre book or if its possible to buy on arrival.

I know that the park is on a first come first serve basis therefore I thought it may be better to pay on gate if poss, incase I book a ticket and then can't get into the park because its full.

Thankyou

    buy your tickets in advance from disney.

    it's cheaper. and it's much quicker. my experience was we queued (with kids) for what seemed like ages.

    with tickets, we went through in less than 2 minutes. lovely.

    No I havent booked hotel yet. The main problem I am having at the moment is Euro Tunnel it seems to be fully booked for every day I pick.

    Do you need tickets for that too or could you pay at the tunnel?

    It's somewhere I have never been.

    But ferries are working out nearly £200 which I think is rediculous.

    have you looked to see how much it is to fly (for example with easyjet)?

    I've not used the tunnel I'm afraid.

    No thankyou anyway for the kind offer. I'm still playing around with dates.
  • we converted tesco clubcard deals for the tunnel ( though they only allocate a certain amount for voucher use per day) and then booked tickets online as you save 15%. we then booked a hotel near disney for 2 nights at £120. Nothing special but we will only be sleeping in it. Going over new year.
