Hiya, Evelyn! Welcome to planDisney!
Oh boy! If there's one thing I love more than birthdays, it's celebrating at the
Happiest Place on Earth! I'm so glad to hear that you'll be heading to Disneyland Resort for some very special celebrations. After speaking to a Cast Member, I was told that restaurants occasionally will sing happy birthday, but it depends on how busy the servers are that day. But no worries! Hakuna Matata! I'd love to help you make sure that
this birthday is extra magical! Let me just grab my magic wand...
- If a round of "happy birthday" is a wish that your heart makes, I'd recommend letting the Cast Member know when you check in for your advance dining reservation. There's nothing better than sneakily passing along a secret birthday request out of earshot from the birthday Guest! While this request can't be guaranteed, Cast Members will always do what they can to make your day the BEST. DAY. EVER!
- I would absolutely suggest that you stop by City Hall on Main Street inside Disneyland Park or at Guest Relations inside of Disney California Adventure Park and pick up a complimentary birthday button! It's the best feeling to receive well-wishes from Cast Members and Guests alike on a special day like a birthday. Plus, this is a great keepsake to take home and treasure!
- Consider purchasing a Mickey Mouse celebration cake to add to your dining reservation! This would be an extra special treat for an extra special person that will truly end the day on a sweet note.
- The best souvenirs, in my opinion, are pictures. Consider booking a Capture Your Moment photo session in Disneyland Park so the birthday Guest can take center stage! Of course, the rest of the Guests in your travel party can hop in the pictures, too, so you can capture these fond memories together.
I hope I was able to steer you in the right direction, Evelyn! If you have any other questions, please visit us again. Sending you all the faith, trust, and pixie dust on this upcoming birthday celebration!
Your Fairy Godmother in Planning,
