There are a lot of differences between Disney World and Disneyland. For example, Disneyland is a bit smaller (actually, it’s just more compact) and has Sleeping Beauty Castle whereas Disney World has Cinderella Castle.
Disneyland also has some rides that Disney World doesn’t have, and vice versa. However, one of the biggest differences is that Disneyland can go ALL out with Marvel on the West Coast, whereas Disney World cannot on the East Coast (because of an old contract Marvel has with Universal). So that’s why you’ll find Avengers Campus in Disney California Adventure, as well as a host of Marvel characters. Well, one of those characters is Deadpool (and we honestly NEVER expected him to be in a Disney Park), and he’s now reading holiday stories to visitors. Yep, this is really a thing — and us Disney World-regulars are a little jealous.
Remember Story Time with Deadpool, that limited-time offering in California Adventure over the summer with Deadpool and Wolverine?
Well, it’s officially BACK for a limited run…as a holiday show. Yep, Deadpool is dressing like Santa and reading holiday stories in a Disney Park, and we absolutely LOVE that this is a thing. And, before you ask, it seems like he just might be joined by Wolverine during storytime. Peep the ornament on the tree!
So here’s the thing: you SHOULD be able to find showtimes for The Story Time with Deadpool Holiday Special on the Disneyland app, but we searched ALL over the app and couldn’t find anything. However, we did find the showtimes on the Disneyland website in the calendar. Note that these showtimes could change, so you’ll want to keep an eye on the Disneyland website (at least until it gets added to the app).
It does, however, look like The Story Time with Deadpool Holiday Special will be happening every day during the holiday season in California Adventure, so you should have multiple chances to catch it. Also, don’t forget Deadpool & Wolverine is now streaming on Disney+.

I would like to see a Disney newsletter JUST about DISNEYLAND.
I was born and raised in Southern California. Our family went to Disneyland at least once a year. When Disneyland was about to celebrate its 35th Anniversary/Birthday 2 of my close friends talked me into getting an Annual Pass. Since they were giving away prizes every day, we went once a week all year long. I was ‘hooked’!!! I renewed my premium annual pass every year long after the 60th Anniversary – it was my home away from home. I got to know the cast members to call them my close friends! Oscar Martinez was a favorite as we shared Birthdays. I moved away from the area almost 5 years ago – I miss Disneyland and DCA so much!
