The Disneyland Resort theme parks have been closed for several months now.
Although the California government’s theme park reopening guidelines were set to be issued last week, they were later postponed following pushback from several sources.
Last week, Disney announced that it would lay off 28,000 Cast Members in the Parks, Experiences, and Products division.
As we started to get more details about the situation, we realized that many of these lay-offs would affect Cast Members at Disney World in Florida.
While we wait for the Disneyland Resort to announce reopening plans for their theme parks and hotels, fans have been able to get their shopping and dining fix at Downtown Disney. As the only facet of Disneyland currently open, folks have certainly been enjoying a little dose of the Disney magic!
Starting soon, guests will have more ways to shop popular seasonal merchandise items, and you won’t believe WHERE in the Disneyland Resort the shop is located!
California theme parks, including Disneyland Resort, are still at odds with the state as it continues to work out reopening guidelines.
The reopening of California theme parks is dependent on the release of guidelines from the state. Disney has been pushing for this guidance, which was originally expected this week before the state announced it would be postponed pending further input from experts.
Theme park reopening guidelines were set to be issued by California this week, but the release was ultimately postponed following some pushback from Disneyland and others who urged the state not to finalize the guidelines without their input.
Now, the Mayor of the City of Anaheim, the city where Disneyland is located, is chiming in as well.
Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure may be closed, but we’ve still been able to enjoy lots of treats and buy TONS of new merchandise from Downtown Disney!
Come along with us on a trip to Downtown Disney to see what’s new!
Although Downtown Disney is open, Disneyland Park, Disney California Adventure, and the Disneyland Resort hotels are currently closed.
Previously, the Disneyland Resort hotels were only accepting reservations for vacation dates beginning mid-October. Now, however, it appears that date has been pushed back further.

Earlier this week, Disney announced that approximately 28,000 Cast Members in the Parks, Experiences and Products division would be laid off.
We’re starting to get more details about what this could mean for Cast Members in Disney World, Disneyland, and elsewhere. We know that this is a very difficult time for Cast Members throughout the country, and we know that information is coming in fits and starts, bits and pieces, and third-party games of telephone from other Cast Members.
We wanted to create a curated page where we can unpack any details we’re getting about the announcement, and where interested Cast Members can find all of the information we currently know about the layoffs.
We’ll continue to update this page as we get more details.
We love bringing home Disney mugs as souvenirs — they’re a super useful way to add a dose of Disney to our daily lives!
We’re constantly on the lookout for new mugs to add to our collection. So we were so excited to find loads of new mugs at World of Disney in Downtown Disney!
While Disneyland Resort faces an extended closure, we often pop into Downtown Disney to see if we can spot any new merch and dining updates.
While visiting, we’ll stop by Disneyland’s entrance gates to see if there are any signs of life on the other side. We’ve spotted new physical distancing markers and even a potential new walkway. On our recent visit, we stopped by the gates of Disneyland to see what else is new!
