The holidays have arrived at the Disneyland Resort! Well, at least to the areas that guests currently have access to. While the theme parks remain closed, Downtown Disney is available for shopping and outdoor dining, and this Thursday, Buena Vista Street will also reopen!

Christmas has arrived at Downtown Disney!

Let’s take a look at some of the seasonal dining and shopping guests can take part in!

When it comes to food, Downtown Disney has got you covered. If you’re looking to embrace all things Thanksgiving, you can enjoy a limited-time Thanksgiving Burger at Black Tap Craft Burgers & Shakes. There, you can also pick up a Chocolate Peppermint Cheesecake. Also for dessert, try the Salted Thanksgiving Turkey or Sweet Potato ice cream flavors at Salt & Straw.
