ANAHEIM, Calif. ( KTLA) -- Holiday crowds swarmed Disneyland and California Adventure Tuesday forcing the Disneyland Resort to temporarily shut down access to both theme parks.
Officials stopped selling tickets at Disneyland around 10:00 a.m., according to a Disney spokesperson. Park goers were directed to go the California Adventure theme park. However, by 1:00 p.m. both parks were filled to capacity and Disneyland announced it would stop selling tickets.
The official "tweet" from Disneyland read: "Disneyland Resort is extremely popular today. Disneyland and Disney California Adventure access temporarily limited."
Tuesday marked the second day that ticket sales were temporarily halted due to overcrowding.
It was not immediately when the parks would resume ticket sales.
The week between Christmas and New Year's Day is traditionally one of the busiest in the parks.
