Your questions answered
Shanghai Disney Resort FAQs
Do I need a visa for Shanghai Disneyland?
UK passport holders can currently visit mainland China for up to 30 days without a visa. The policy started on 17 February 2026 and is confirmed until 31 December 2026. Rules can change, so we’ll check them for your dates.
How many days do we need?
One full day covers the highlights, but two days lets you enjoy the night-time show, repeat favourites and explore Disneytown.
What’s unique to Shanghai Disneyland?
The world’s only Zootopia land, Pirates of the Caribbean: Battle for the Sunken Treasure, the original TRON Lightcycle Power Run and the biggest Disney castle, plus Duffy and Friends, who are huge stars here.
Is it easy to get around in China?
Yes, with a little preparation. Mobile payment apps and a few translation tools make it simple, and we’ll give you a checklist before you go. Our hosted trip is ideal if you’d like company.
Can we combine Shanghai with Hong Kong or Tokyo?
Easily. Hong Kong is a short flight away, Tokyo is around three hours, and Royal Caribbean’s Spectrum of the Seas sails from Shanghai to Japan.
Is my holiday protected?
Yes. Holidays that include flights are ATOL protected, and as members of Merlin Travel Group your money is protected through PTS. See how we protect your holiday.
