It’s almost Christmas, and we have a BIG update about what’s new at Disneyland Resort!
There’s a LOT to cover today, so let’s jump right in!
The holidays have arrived in Disneyland!
We’ve eaten all kinds of snacks at the Festival of Holidays, shared details about the “it’s a small world” holiday edition, and even attended their new Merriest Nites holiday after hours events. But today we got to experience a truly time-honored tradition at Disneyland — the iconic (and giant) hand-crafted candy canes!
We don’t know about you, but for us, Mickey ears are a staple of our theme park outfits!
We love getting different ears for the holidays, festivals, and for our favorite movies. And today, we found another new pair of ears in Disneyland!
Disney Genie recently launched at Disneyland Resort — it’s a free planning tool that can help you map out your day through the Disneyland app.
Also launched with Genie was Genie+ and Individual Lightning Lanes. Genie+ replaced the old MaxPass system with a paid system. It costs $20 per day, per person to have access to reservations to skip the standby lines at rides around the parks using their new Lightning Lanes (old MaxPass lanes). There are also a few high demand rides not included with Genie+ that you can pay for individually to skip the standby lines. And, the prices for those Individual Lightning Lanes just went up for the holiday season.
Disneyland Resort launched its new Magic Key Annual Passholder program in August of this year. This replaced the old program with new passes that include different perks and benefits.
Last week, we told you about a lawsuit filed against Disney regarding Disneyland’s Magic Key Annual Passholder program and the current park pass reservation system. Now, Disney has responded to the lawsuit.
Have y’all seen Spider-Man: No Way Home yet??
In case you haven’t, we’re not going to give away any spoilers here. All we’re going to say is WOAH. Since the movie has come out, there’s a NEW character meet-and-greet at Disneyland Resort, and it brings together two heroes that are center stage right now. [Read more…]
Sometimes, Disney goes a little bit wild with their ears!
Whether they’re designed by the Rock, worth $1000 and made with real gold, or the same color as our grandmother’s couch, Disney has made some choice decisions with their iconic ears in the past, ranging from absolutely cool to downright confusing. Today, we’ve got a new set of ears that are the absolute definition of doing the most!
Although Disneyland Resort is the Happiest Place on Earth, sometimes things happen.
We’ve seen issues with the launch of Disney Genie+ and there was flooding that caused “it’s a small world” holiday to open later than originally scheduled. Today, we saw an issue arise at one of our favorite snack spots!
Disney has several different programs aimed at environmental sustainability, including massive solar panels in Disney World, the elimination of single-use plastic straws, and biodiesel fuel made from recycled cooking oil that is used on some attractions.
If you’ve ever been to Disney’s Animal Kingdom, you might have noticed the company advocating for several different environmental causes there. Some of the attractions work towards raising awareness (such as the Feathered Friends in Flight show), and you can donate to certain conservation funds while you’re in the park. Now, there’s a NEW energy-saving project coming to Anaheim that could impact your Disneyland trip. [Read more…]
Disneyland Resort introduced a new annual passholder program this year called Magic Key.
There are new names for the passes, new blockout dates, and new prices. And, both the Dream Key and the Believe Key are sold out. The Enchant Key is still available, and the Imagine Key may still be available, but it’s only available for Southern Californian residents. When the program was announced, Disney also said they would be hosting a Magic Key Holder Celebration Month, but didn’t say when the festivities would be happening. But, we just found out when Magic Key holders can expect to be celebrated!
