A Touch of Disney was a special ticketed event at Disney California Adventure in Disneyland Resort. The event took place on select dates beginning March 18, 2021 prior to the park’s historic Reopening on April 30, 2021.  

Although rides and attractions were part of the experience while Disneyland Resort remained closed until April 30, 2021, this special event featured food and beverages, beloved Disney characters, Disney merchandise, and photo ops.
