Welcome back to planDisney, Tiffany!
A trip to the Disneyland Resort over New Year's Eve sounds like a blast! As you know, you'll be visiting during
The Holidays which takes place from November 12, 2021 through January 9, 2022. During this time, there are all sorts of special experiences like Holiday overlays on select attractions, A Christmas Fantasy Parade, Believe...in Holiday Magic fireworks show and more! While specific details about New Year's Eve 2021 events haven't been released yet, in the past there has been a special fireworks show at midnight and special dining packages. You'll want to keep your eye on the
Disney Parks Blog as your travel dates approach. The blog will be the first place to announce any special offerings to ring in the new year.
As you continue to plan your trip, you'll want to read up on the new
Disney Genie service that will be debuting this fall. Disney Genie is a complimentary digital feature in the Disneyland app that will create custom park-touring itineraries based on your interests. It will even refresh throughout the day based on crowd levels and attraction wait times so you can maximize your time in the parks. There will also be the option to purchase Disney Genie+ for $20 per day, per ticket. With Disney Genie+, you will select the next available return time for an attraction and then skip most of the wait by using the Lightning Lane. If you ever used Disney MaxPass in the past, this new service will be quite similar.
I hope this helps. Happy planning!
