With that, Chiba Prefecture (home to the Tokyo Disney Resort) has released new guidelines indicating how theme parks in the prefecture (namely Tokyo Disney Resort) will be allowed to operate in the coming weeks.
From March 22nd through March 31st, some restrictions will be relaxed according to the Chiba Prefecture government. Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea will be able to up their capacity from 5000 to 10,000 Guests per day. Additionally, the request to shorten business operating hours will be moved from 8PM to 9PM. However, the Oriental Land Company announced that operating hours will remain at 10AM to 7PM through March 31st.
