Hi Carolyn! Welcome to planDisney! I'm so thrilled you have a visit to Disneyland coming up and am excited for all the frightfully fun you're about to experience during the most magical time of year.
Thank you for stopping by with your great question. I can understand your desire to plan ahead and maximize the magic during your visit to the Happiest Place on Earth (I'm the same way!), however, entertainment schedules are not released until about six weeks out. I encourage you to check the
Daily Events Schedule on the Disneyland website as your visit gets a little bit closer. In my experience, nighttime entertainment usually occurs every night during Halloween Time, but you'll be able to confirm the most current information under "Fireworks & Nighttime Entertainment" and "Parades" on the Daily Events Schedule. Make sure your particular date is selected from the "Change Date" at the top.
We do know that the fall favorites and
Disneyland's 70th Celebration will overlap during
Halloween Time - which is
huge news! Not only will we get to experience the frightfully fun haunts of Halloween Time (which begins August 22), but we'll also get to enjoy much of the incredible 70th Celebration entertainment, as well, including the dazzling
Paint the Night parade continuing throughout the Halloween season!
TIP: Because there is
so much entertainment to experience in Disneyland right now, I recommend purchasing a Rancho del Zocalo
Fantasmic! Dining Package for the first showing of
Fantasmic! to secure a great viewing spot. (Rancho del Zocalo is an incredible value for the Fantasmic! Dining Package.) Then, after the conclusion of Fantasmic!, experience the fireworks from the very same spot! Projections should be displayed over the Rivers of America - two for one!
All that said, it's important to know that the schedule can change at any time and fireworks at Disneyland Park can also be cancelled last minute due to weather, unfortunately.
I hope this information has been helpful to you, Carolyn! I trust you'll be dreaming a fantastic dream in no time. If any other planning questions come up as you're preparing for your upcoming visit,
you know where to find us!
Magic awaits,
McCayla
