A BRAND-NEW event has begun in Disneyland!

Disney Channel Nite is happening for the first time EVER and of course, we just had to check it all out. The event will be “highlighting themed offerings from favorite Disney Channel shows across various eras of programming with fantastic music, memorable characters, high-energy parties, unique photo opportunities, and more!” So, let’s check it out!

Atmosphere

We just experienced our first Disney Channel Nite! The event is scheduled for March 5th and 7th and marks the very first time this event has taken place. There is so much to see and do — so let’s get into it. When we first arrived we were given a lanyard and map with information about the event.

This was a separately ticketed event that boasts fewer crowds than a normal day in the park, but there were still plenty of people waiting to enter when we did.

But, what we’re really here to check out are all the exclusive characters, entertainment, and snacks!

Characters

We spotted so many rare characters at this event! First up was Baloo, King Louie, and Don Karnage…
