During a reopening ceremony in the park featuring 30 Disney characters and cast members, Joe Schott, president and general manager of Shanghai Disney Resort, thanked guests for their passion, "which ignites the magical dream within all of us".

"We hope that today's reopening can serve as a beacon of light across the globe, providing hope and inspiration to everyone … and can demonstrate that we can overcome any challenge together," Schott said.

There also will be other new safety measures and procedures during the initial reopening phase.

All entrants need to get their temperatures checked, wear face masks and maintain social distancing as mandated by park regulations.

The first group of customers, many of whom wore Disney-themed apparel, entered the park at around 9 am. They were greeted by waving park staff as they walked in, having been asked to show a green code on their phones to prove they were in good health.

"It's just so thrilling to be back on the first day," said Tang Jiatian, who managed to secure two tickets for himself and his girlfriend. "We cannot wait to take the Roaring Rapids ride again, a symbol of adventure and courage."
