Hello, Grace! It's always fun to see fellow Washingtonians stop by planDisney. Welcome!
I'm so excited you have an upcoming visit to the Happiest Place on Earth and I'm happy to answer your great question.
You are correct.
Disneyland After Dark Event 90s Nite will be returning on March 4th and 6th, 2025 and if you don't have tickets, you should seriously think about going! The unique entertainment, rare Disney pals, specialty food offerings and shorter attraction wait times are all reasons enough to consider it! The March 6th date looks to be sold out but, at the time of this writing, March 4th still has availability. You can
purchase tickets on the Disneyland website.
But, anyway, to answer your question (sorry, I got very excited about 90s Nite!), if you have a valid theme park ticket and park reservation for that day, you may enter the park as usual before Disneyland Park closes early to anyone without the separate special event ticket. Fireworks during this particular time of year usually show only on weekends, so, currently, there are no fireworks scheduled. However, there may be a fun projection show!
I encourage you, Grace, to check the
Hours & Events Calendar on the Disneyland website for any updates, as entertainment offerings often change. Make sure you've selected your specific dates from the blue "Change Date" at the top.
If you do not plan to attend 90s Nite, Grace, I have a couple of options for you. The first is to make your park reservation for California Adventure that day and spend your entire day and night in California Adventure. An all-around perfect day. Or another option could be, if you have a park hopper ticket, to pop over to California Adventure after Disneyland Park closes, for an evening of fun. You'll get the best of both worlds with Disneyland Park during the day and California Adventure at night.
And
World of Color: ONE in California Adventure is currently on the calendar! Lucky you! This nighttime extravaganza on the waters of Paradise Bay is heartwarming and truly beautiful. For a free viewing spot, join the virtual queue on the
Disneyland app at 12pm the day you're in the parks. (I always set a reminder on my phone, so I don't forget, as I'm usually quite distracted enjoying my favorite QuesaBirria meal at
Cocina Cucamonga.)
Well, Grace, I hope that's helpful! And if any other planning questions come up, please don't hesitate to
reach out! You got a friend in this Washington girl.
From the bottom of my heart, I wish you the most magical visit.
McCayla
