food IS a theme park
MagicBands have long been a staple for vacations at Walt Disney World, but Disneyland never had them…until now!
New MagicBand+
When Disney announced that MagicBand+ would be the next generation of MagicBands, they also revealed that the technology would FINALLY be coming to Disneyland Resort. The new bands have been available in Disney World for a while now, but they are officially launching at Disneyland TODAY. So, come along with us as we check them out!
Technically, it’s still Halloween Time in Disneyland, but let’s face it — the holidays are already starting to sneak in.
Halloween Time in Disneyland
We’ve already seen holiday merchandise in Disneyland, and we’ve already got a full list of food booths for the Festival of the Holidays in Disney California Adventure. Now, though, Disneyland’s iconic Sleeping Beauty Castle is showing off its snowy holiday look — in OCTOBER.
One of the things that makes Disney so special is the amazing Cast Members who create all of those delicious drinks we love to enjoy!
Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar
If you would like to try your hand at some of the drinks they serve, Trader Sam’s is making that possible!
Calling all Marvel fans!
Marvel merchandise
We’ve seen some pretty stellar Marvel Mickey and Minnie ears in the past, like the Scarlet Witch ears, Mighty Thor ears, and even a pair dedicated to the God of Mischief, Loki. But, Disney is getting ready for the premiere of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, and they’ve released a NEW pair of ears to celebrate!
Halloween is right around the corner!

Tickets for Oogie Boogie Bash sold out months in advance, but if you got your ticket, be prepared to try all the snacks and see lots of characters. If you’re celebrating the occasion during normal Disneyland operating hours instead, there’s still plenty to check out. And if you’re a Magic Key Holder, there are a few special Haunted Mansion PhotoPass lenses available just for you!
We’ve had a LOT of big news coming out of Disneyland this week!

But, many Disneyland fans were wondering if MagicBand+ would be coming to the west coast anytime soon, and then Disney announced that yes — MagicBand+ would be debuting in the parks “this fall.” And now, we know just when that day will be! MagicBand+ is being released at Disneyland Resort SOON and we’re sharing everything you need to know!
Get ready to celebrate all things merry and bright — the Festival of Holidays is returning to Disneyland Resort soon!
Honey Guava Pisco Punch
From November 11th, 2022 through January 8th, 2023, the festival will be offered at Disney California Adventure Park. It’ll feature all kinds of entertainment, appearances by Santa Claus (of course!), and the chance to munch on some unique food. We’ve been eagerly awaiting more news about this festival and we FINALLY got a huge update!
A Disneyland vacation just got more expensive in more ways than one. We saw some major ticket price increases, and Genie+ now costs $5 more than it used to. Unfortunately, that’s not where the price increases end.
Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland
Earlier, we noticed that the Savi’s Workshop lightsaber building experience and the Droid Depot got more expensive at Disney World’s Hollywood Studios. Now, those same price increases have hit Disneyland as well. [Read more…]
