June is bringing a NEW celebration to Disneyland. This marks Black Music Month, and there will be tons of new things to do AND EAT during Disneyland’s big celebration.

During the month of June, visitors to Downtown Disney can get their groove on with live band performances nightly at the Downtown Disney LIVE! stage. Different genres of music will be featured, including Jazz Fusion, Caribbean, and Mid-Century Jazz. Disney has more than 17 musical groups lined up to perform, with four performance sets each night.
