Disneyland and California Adventure will reopen on July 17, about four months after the parks closed due to the coronavirus pandemic.

July 17 also marks the 65th anniversary of Disneyland's grand opening. The plan does still need to be approved by the state and local government, the Los Angeles Times reports.

Downtown Disney is set to reopen first on July 9, with the Grand Californian Hotel & Spa and Paradise Pier Hotel welcoming guests again on July 23. The hotels will have a limited number of guests. Walt Disney World in Orlando previously announced it is starting a phased reopening on July 11.
