Greetings, Dana! Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel and thanks for your question.
It’s so amazing that you plan to ring in the new year at the Disneyland Resort! This year, there are two culinary experiences happening for New Year’s Eve and they both take place at
Napa Rose inside Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel and Spa. The first dining experience can be booked between 5:00 and 6:30 p.m. and features a four-course meal inspired by California’s wine country and there will also be some great party décor for the occasion. The second option is a dinner and a gala that starts with live music and champagne at 8:15 p.m. Then a little later you receive a five-course tasting menu complete with sugar piñatas for dessert, and then top the night off with party favors, dancing, and the countdown to midnight. These offerings certainly make for a dazzling night! Reservations are a must and can be made by calling (714) 781-3463.
In addition to this delightful dining event, you can also expect the New Year's Eve "Fantasy In The Sky" Fireworks Spectacular. This will occur at 9:05 p.m. and again at 11:35 p.m., weather permitting. If you will be traveling with little ones, the earlier show is the perfect way to celebrate the New Year without keeping the kiddos up all night long. Additionally, it will still be the
Holidays at the Disneyland Resort which means you can enjoy the lightings of Sleeping Beauty’s Winter Castle, “it’s a small world” Holiday, and the Christmas trees in both parks. A Christmas Fantasy Parade will also march down Main Street, U.S.A. twice during the day on New Year’s Eve.
Wishing you joy and happiness today and in the new year!
