Royal greetings, Susan, and welcome to planDisney!
These days, we all feel a little like Princess Anna when she awoke on coronation day in Arendelle. Finally they're opening up the gaaaates! In just a few days,
Disneyland Park and
Disney California Adventure Park will
reopen to residents of the Golden State, and my planDisney pals and I can't wait.
While
some things never change, like the ability to soar over Fantasyland on
Dumbo the Flying Elephant, there are still some uncertainties regarding entertainment offerings and character appearances in the theme parks during the initial reopening phase. Under normal circumstances,
Anna and Elsa hold court in Hollywood Lane at Disney California Adventure Park, but the royal ladies will not be appearing here upon reopening, nor will they be getting up close and personal with their subjects anywhere in Disneyland Park. My best advice is to watch the
Disney Parks Blog and
Disneyland Resort Entertainment page for updates on how to catch the princesses and other Disney pals in the theme parks.
As a mom of a little girl who loves to interact with her favorite royals in the Disney Parks, I know it seems disappointing to visit the theme parks without some of the experiences we always look forward to having. My daughter and I have spent time in the Walt Disney World theme parks since their reopening, and we have had an absolutely wonderful and time returning and making new memories, despite things looking a little different these days. I know you'll have a fantastic time returning to a land of magic with your little princess. No matter how many times we visit, there's always something new to ride, see, or eat in the Disney Parks!
I wish I could offer more exact information as far as where and how the Disney characters will appear as the theme parks reopen. Be sure to
follow us on social media and stay tuned to the
experience updates page as information is released and the reopening phases evolve. We look forward to seeing you and your daughter real soon in the Happiest Place on Earth!
Have a magical day,
Betsy
