    Hi we are due to come on the 27th Jan we are aware now the park closes early for an event. But was wondering if we would still see the fireworks display at the castle before it closes? Thanks - Disney California

    Hi there, Anita!

    Welcome to planDisney. I am excited to help you with your question! The nighttime spectaculars available at the Disneyland Resort are always the perfect way to conclude a magical day. I understand your excitement! Let’s take a look at your options for your particular visit date.

    While the Disneyland Park will close early for a special ticketed event, you should be able to catch Wondrous Journeys with Projections. Currently, the showtime is scheduled for 7:30 PM PST, though showtimes are always subject to change. Luckily, your night does not have to end when Disneyland closes! If you happen to have a Park Hopper ticket, you can walk over to Disney California Adventure to enjoy World of Color Happiness! at 9:00 PM PST. 

    Bonus Tip: Keep an eye on the events calendar regularly online or via the Disneyland mobile app to ensure that you do not miss any changes in showtimes or availability.

    Anita, I hope this helps! There is so much magic to experience at Disneyland — especially as the 70th Celebration continues. I am confident that you and your family will feel every bit of it during your upcoming adventure! If you have any additional questions, please come see us again here at planDisney.

    Sending you faith, trust, and pixie dust,
