Holidays at the Disneyland Resort!
Disneyland
It is the most magical time at the happiest place on earth! Guest visiting the Disneyland Resort will stroll passed their icon 60 ft Christmas Tree before taking in the magical glimmer of Sleeping Beauty’s Winter Castle. Guest can also discover the holiday entertainment like A Christmas Fantasy Parade which never fails to make me cry.
Of course a new year come new things, this year Mickey, Minnie and some of their friends will show off their new holiday attire that captures the spirit of holiday travel and a wintery alpine gathering. Santa also has a new location at Mickey’s Toontown Trolley Barn, near Roger Rabbit’s Car Toon Spin. So make sure you have been good! Stop by Bluey’s Best Day Ever in Disneyland to wiggle and dance as Bluey and her sister Bingo will continue to make appearances at the Fantasyland Theater.
