Hi there, Kim! Welcome back to planDisney.
I’m so excited for the
Disneyland Resort 70th Celebration which begins on May 16th, 2025, and continues through summer of 2026. I’m looking forward to the all-new “World of Color Happiness!” and the return of “Paint the Night” parade!
September is a great month to visit the Disneyland Resort. The fall weather in Anaheim is usually milder than the summer months and the crowd sizes (on weekdays) are usually smaller with schools back in session.
The month of September also coincides with
Disneyland Resort Halloween Time and Oogie Boogie Bash on select nights.
Oogie Boogie Bash – A Disney Halloween Party happens after hours and requires a separate ticket. Disney California Adventure Park closes early to the general public on nights that Oogie Boogie Bash takes place; Guests without special tickets will need to exit the park, usually by 6PM (
subject to change). When choosing which days to visit in September, I recommend checking out the Events Calendar for the specific dates when Oogie Boogie Bash happens. That way, you won’t be caught off-guard by Disney California Adventure closing early if you do not have tickets to Oogie Boogie Bash. Be sure to check out
Disney Parks Blog to stay up-to-date as more details are released, such as when you can buy tickets for Oogie Boogie Bash if you’re interested in joining in the festivities.
I hope this is helpful for you as you continue planning your upcoming trip to the Happiest Place on Earth. Please don’t hesitate to visit us on planDisney again if you have more questions.
Wishing you a magical day,
Kiki
