Hi Alyssa! Welcome back to planDisney! I'm so happy you stopped by again to send us another great question.
I love visiting The Happiest Place on Earth in the summer, and it's also the perfect time to celebrate Disneyland's birthday! How fun that you will be there on July 17th! In my experience, a special cavalcade goes down
Main Street, U.S.A. around noon that day. While there isn't anything listed on the
Daily Events Schedule for this date, you could ask a Cast Member about any special festivities when you arrive at
Disneyland Park. Regarding food, there haven't been any announcements yet about special treats or other food offerings to commemorate Disneyland's 68th birthday. However, there are always yummy offerings in the summer. I recommend staying tuned to
Disney Eats on Instagram for any news about new food offerings at the Disneyland Resort.
I hope this information helps with your planning. The
Disney100 Celebration will also be happening during your visit! There's so much to see and do, and you can view the guide for this fun celebration on the
Disneyland Mobile App.
Alyssa, we can't wait for you to be our guest! If you have more questions before you arrive, we would love to help you at
planDisney!
Happy Planning!
Smiles,
Lisa
