Greetings, Mikayla, and welcome to planDisney! The Disneyland Resort will be brimming with excitement as the
70th Anniversary Celebration kicks off. It's fantastic that you'll be there to experience it!
I am eagerly anticipating all of the amazing entertainment coming to the Resort as part of the festivities. An all-new World of Color show, the Paint the Night Parade, Wondrous Journeys – it's going to be magical! There are so many new offerings on the way that I have a feeling the details just haven't been added to the
Hours & Events Calendar yet. You might want to check back in a few weeks.
In the meantime, a clue can be found in the dining packages. There is a
World of Color Dessert Party that pairs sweet treats with a prime view of the show, and reservations are currently open. The
dessert party page mentions that viewing for
World of Color Happiness! begins May 16, 2025, and I see dining packages for 8:00 p.m. and 9:15 p.m. There's a note that the show is scheduled to start 60 minutes after the reservation time. Of course, showtimes are subject to change, but it's an indication of what you might be able to expect.
There is also a dining package for
Paint the Night at Plaza Inn, also beginning May 16, 2025. That one is a little different, as you'd eat and receive a voucher to enter a reserved viewing area for the show later that evening. This one may be more difficult to get a reservation for. If you're interested in this package, just keep checking to see if reservations open up. There are a few
other dining packages to choose from as well.
Have you heard about the
Key to Disneyland? It will also be available starting May 16, 2025. Purchase one, search for all nine lock stations across Disneyland (one in each land), and use your key to unlock special lighting effects and music. Once you visit all nine lock stations, your key will deliver a commemorative surprise! Isn't that so fun?
Mikayla, I hope your upcoming visit to the Disneyland Resort is full of laughter, tasty food, and enchanting moments. If you have any questions before your trip, please let us know. We're always happy to help here at planDisney!
Your pal,
Kriss
