food IS a theme park
We’ve seen a LOT of upcoming ride and attraction closures for Disneyland Resort recently.
Sleeping Beauty Castle in Disneyland
We’ve got refurbishments going on over at Tarzan’s Treehouse, Indiana Jones Adventure, Radiator Springs Racers, and more at various times in the early part of 2023. But now, you can add another attraction to that list!
2023 is almost here and Disney is getting ready!
So. Many. Ears.
We’ve seen some big opening dates announced for 2023 (and one important opening date pushed to that year too), along with the release of LOTS of 2023 merchandise online and in the parks. But now a NEW piece of the 2023 collection has arrived!
Disneyland has some fun events that happen outside of regular park hours.
Disneyland at night
For Halloween we see Oogie Boogie Bash, there are special Grad Nites, and event some other after hours events. We recently found out about a NEW after hours event coming to Disneyland Park in 2023, and now, select people can buy tickets for this event!
Disneyland has a lot of special events that guests can enjoy.
Pixar Pier at Disney California Adventure
There are special parties like Oogie Boogie Bash, along with other After Hours events like Grad Nites. And, there’s another special event day coming up in Disneyland! Anaheim Ducks Day is returning to Disney California Adventure park soon, and it’s bringing with it some special treats!
The holiday season is in full effect in Disneyland and we are enjoying it!
Sleeping Beauty Castle at night
We’ve got our candy cane (which we accidentally broke — oops!), we’ve had a TON of amazing holiday snacks, and we saw the Candlelight Processional. But what else is going on in Disneyland? Well, let’s find out!
If you’re a Star Wars fan, the Disney Parks have a lot to offer!
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
In both Disneyland and Disney World, Galaxy’s Edge can transport you to Batuu where you can build a droid, join the resistance, or have a cocktail over at Oga’s Cantina. It’s no surprise that Star Wars fans are passionate about a galaxy far, far away, leading to some cool fan events that happen in the parks! And, the other day, we spotted a pretty awesome gathering of fans over at Disneyland Resort.
Disneyland Resort has its share of holiday traditions that we always love seeing this time of year.
Sleeping Beauty Castle
We love attending the Disney California Adventure Festival of the Holidays. We also love seeing the characters in their holiday outfits. We also love all the holiday treats! But one of the most special events during the holidays is the Candlelight Processional — and we were there for the first one of the year!
Happy Holidays from the West Coast! The snow is on the castle in Disneyland, so it is officially the holiday season (okay, the snow has been on there since BEFORE Halloween, though).
Sleeping Beauty Castle during the holidays
So while we’re buying up some holiday merchandise and sipping on hot cocoa, we’re also eating up ALL the holiday snacks. So we’re headed over to Disney California Adventure to try a new one!
There are just some snacks that Disneyland does better than Disney World.
Tortilla Jo’s
If you’ve ever tasted a Disneyland corn dog, eaten a Disneyland churro, or drunk a Mint Julep, you’ll know we’re speaking the truth. Disneyland also has some great Mexican-inspired fare, including at Downtown Disney, where you’ll find the Mexican restaurant Tortilla Jo’s. Now, Tortilla Jo’s is bringing a new burrito to its menu for the month of December.
UPDATE: This refurbishment no longer appears on the Disneyland Resort calendar and appears to have been canceled for the time being. Check below for the latest updates.
Have you ever been to Avengers Campus?
Avengers Campus
It’s the newest land in Disney California Adventure and it’s the perfect spot for any Marvel fan! You get to step into the world of the Avengers and meet new characters, ride with the Guardians of the Galaxy, and eat food the size of your face! But if you were hoping to go on the Spider-Man attraction, you might be out of luck.
