At this past summer’s D23 event. Disney announced that a NEW show – – featuring an animatronic Walt Disney – – was coming to Disneyland. And now, we know when it’s arriving!
Do you know what time of year it is?
It’s the holiday season!
It’s time for some of the BEST sweets and treats out there! If you’re visiting Disney World or Disneyland Resort in the coming weeks, you’ll be impressed with a long list of seasonal snacks, many of which are gingerbread or peppermint-flavored for the holidays. And for those heading to Disneyland, there’s one classic treat you can’t miss!
Disneyland Resort is always being updated and undergoing changes, and it looks like 2025 will be no different!
Sleeping Beauty Castle at Disneyland
We are already seeing planned refurbishments included on the calendar, and we want to make sure you know what will be closed soon.
A popular Disneyland restaurant will be closing soon!

If you are heading to Disneyland Park soon, we want to let you know about the upcoming closure of a popular dining location!
So we’ve noticed a trend with some Disney snacks. It’s croissants — Disney has suddenly become obsessed with croissants and are just out there doing some wacky things with this classic snack.
Jolly Holiday
In Disney World, we’ve seen croissants stuffed with cookie dough, peanut butter and jelly croissants, and croissants with espresso (in case you want your breakfast and coffee together in one snack). Well, this trend seems to have made its way to the West Coast because a NEW croissant has just arrived in Disneyland, and it’s another unique “thinking outside the box” snack — and we mean that in the best way possible.
Haunted Mansion in Disneyland Park is no longer using a virtual queue because the BRAND-NEW queue is officially open!
Haunted Mansion Holiday
Back in January, the attraction was closed for renovation until July 29th. However, when the attraction reopened, the queue was still under construction so Haunted Mansion has been using a virtual queue.
It just got a bit easier to ride the Haunted Mansion Holiday attraction in Disneyland Park!

Let’s grab some grub at Disneyland!
Disneyland Tomorrowland
Disneyland is often regarded as having some of the best theme park food in the industry, but that doesn’t mean every restaurant is a hit. Over in Tomorrowland, Alien Pizza Planet has divided Disney food fans. With the quality called into question in addition to some concern over prices, Alien Pizza Planet currently holds a modest 3.2 out of 5.0 stars on Yelp. With all that in mind, we visited the controversial restaurant to see how it holds up heading into 2025!
Are you planning a trip to Disneyland?
Sleeping Beauty Castle
Disney’s OG park has a lot to offer, including rides that are EXCLUSIVE, as well as a ton of snacks and great food (honestly, we think the food is BETTER in Disneyland than Disney World — now don’t come at us for that). Disneyland is so fun to visit, too, especially if you’re really into Disney history and want to walk down the same streets and walkways Walt Disney himself once walked on (and don’t forget to take a moment to look up at his old apartment above the fire station). If you are going to Disneyland and haven’t bought your tickets yet, you might want to take a moment to visit Target.
Some new snacks from a galaxy far, far away have made their way to Disneyland!
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland

We’re back this year to try new and returning offerings and to let you know if they’re worth hopping in your speeder and traveling lightspeed to Disneyland!
