    Will there be a fireworks show at Disneyland on August 25th ? If yes what time ?

    Hello there, Lou! Welcome to planDisney! Your trip to the Happiest… I mean the Spookiest Place on Earth is just a couple of days away! That’s right! Halloween Time at the Disneyland Resort is here, and the parks are celebrating with all sorts of fun decorations, shows, and treats. Let’s get you and any hitchhiking ghosts you're bringing with you ready for your visit!

    Along with the festive changes comes the beloved nighttime spectacular, Halloween Screams. Go to the Disneyland Website, hover over Tickets & Parks, and then click “See All Hours & Entertainment Schedule.” This takes you to the Hours & Events Calendar, where you can select your visit date and see exactly what’s scheduled for the day. On August 25th, Halloween Screams with Projections is scheduled for 9:30 PM. This version of Halloween Screams features the same beloved musical medley and soaring projections on Sleeping Beauty Castle and along Main Street, U.S.A. without fireworks. Since the peak season has ended, fireworks are only included on select nights. It looks like Halloween Screams with Fireworks is scheduled on Sunday, August 23rd, and then not again until Friday, August 28th. This may not be the news you were hoping for, but it will still be an awesome spectacular, fireworks or not.

    Lou, did you know that some of your favorite characters dress in their Halloween finest this time of year? You can search where they’ll be on the Disneyland Mobile App by going to the map section, clicking the character icon, pressing “Show List,” and then scrolling to find the character you want to meet. Another great way to get in the Halloween spirit is visiting the Disney Parks Blog for their delicious Halloween Foodie Guide. No tricks, all treats!

    Halloween time is a special time of year, and I hope you have a wonderful trip. If you have more questions, there’s room for one more. Come on back to planDisney!

    Have a magical day,

    Corey
