While Disneyland has been unable to reopen its theme park locations since closing in March due to the pandemic, the resort was recently able to reopen the shopping and dining districts of Downtown Disney and Buena Vista Street, albeit with safety measures enforced. Due to the recent stay-at-home order issued in southern California, however, Disneyland will have to reduce operations in these areas.
Restaurants and food and beverage locations that do not offer take-out options will close starting Monday, the Orange County Register reports. Retail locations, meanwhile, will continue to operate at reduced capacity.
