Welcome to planDisney, Sarah!
The annual
Lunar New Year Year Celebration is one of my favorite festivals at
Disney California Adventure Park! Your question about it got me so excited that I couldn't wait to respond. This festival holds a special place in my heart, from savoring the
delicious treats at the food stations to witnessing
Mulan's Lunar New Year Procession and even tying a New Year's wish on the Wishes Wall in Paradise Gardens (fun fact: With good fortune and a great hairdo, most of my wishes have actually come true!). I truly look forward to it every single year.
So let's get down to business, Sarah. When I look at the official
Disneyland Resort website, the answer is not as mysterious as the dark side of the moon. I can see that the Lunar New Year is indeed planned to be celebrated from January 23 until February 18, 2024. There's no need for a Special Events ticket to this seasonal festival, a regular
admission ticket and
theme park reservation is all you need to join in the fun
That's great news because if you're like me and have a residential address with a zip code between 90000 and 93599, then you are eligible for the special
Southern California Resident Tickets! Whenever these discounted tickets become available, I make sure to snag a few for my family, even though I'm a Magic Key Holder, so that we can enjoy that we can make magical memories together through Valentine's, Lunar New Year, and the
Disney California Adventure Food & Wine Festival together. It's such a deal!
I hope these tips help you make all your future plans for the New Year feel tranquil as a forest, Sarah! The countdown is officially on! Feel free to
send me a direct message if you think of any further
tips or
advice that you need and I’ll respond as swift as a coursing river!
Your loyal, brave, and true panelist,
Danielle
