Hello there, Catriona!
Welcome to planDisney and thank you so much for stopping by with your question! I love that you're planning ahead for your upcoming trip to the Disneyland Resort and I can totally understand that you'd like to know what to expect as far as events, decorations, and merchandise. It's a long overseas trip for you after all.
This has been such an exciting and milestone year for the Walt Disney Company. When the
Disney100 Celebration was first announced, no end date was given and we still don't know when the festivities will technically be over. The actual 100th Anniversary of the Company occurred on October 16, 2023. Some of the entertainment and food items that were associated with the Disney100 Celebration have been replaced with seasonal entertainment for the
Halloween and
Holiday Seasons as we approach the end of the year. I would recommend following the
Disney Parks Blog for news and updates on upcoming events at the Disneyland Resort as your trip gets closer.
You can still join in the Celebration even from half a world away. If you want to get your hands on some merchandise, check out the
Disney100 Celebrations Collection on shopdisney.com and show off your love for Disney! And have you had a chance to watch
'Once Upon A Studio,' the new short that was released for the Anniversary? It's available on Disney+ and I'd highly recommend giving it a look if you haven't already. And have some tissues handy because it tugs on the heart strings for those of us who love Disney. Lastly, be on the lookout for an announcement about
Disneyland After Dark: Sweethearts Nite, a popular specially ticketed event that takes place in February at Disneyland Park. It would be a nice addition to your trip!
Catriona, I hope you are able to use this information even though I wasn't able to give you a more direct answer. If you have any more questions before your big trip, please reach out to us again anytime because you're always welcome at planDisney! Until next time!
Wishing You a Great, Big, Beautiful Tomorrow!
