February is honestly one of my favorite times of year to visit the Disneyland Resort. You get lucky with rainy days lessening crowds, on sunny days it’s beautiful and not too hot, and the resort tends to start teasing what’s coming the rest of the year. Let’s take a look back at this month at […] Read more…
Hello all – and welcome to 2025! I’m back from my usual January posting break to bring you a recap of everything that happened in the last month at the Disneyland Resort. This year is already busy – the Lunar New Year Celebration is in full swing, and Celebrate Gospel starts next week (full post […] Read more…
Happy New Year’s Eve! For me, 2024 seemed like a really long, wild year – I actually spent some time today reading through the monthly updates from this year, because I couldn’t keep track of everything that happened. The resort is definitely in a phase of change – particularly with Downtown Disney. But with the […] Read more…
Happy belated Thanksgiving! As 2024 races to the finish line, the Disneyland Resort did not slow down with new offerings, teasers of more to come, and as always, the usual pile of sweet treats to celebrate the holiday season. Let’s take a look back at November at the happiest place on earth. A NEW HEADLINE […] Read more…
Happy dia de los muertos! I hope your spooky season was filled with fun and lots of candy. Now that we’re into November, the Disneyland Resort is switching over to its holiday decor. But October wrapped up the Halloween festivities with some new offerings, attraction previews, and a beautiful new lounge at the Disneyland Hotel. […] Read more…
Welcome to October! The Disneyland Resort is in full swing for all things spooky, and I can’t wait to celebrate at Oogie Boogie Bash in a few weeks. September kicked off full-swing Halloween time at the resort, and with it came some heartwarming stories, a heartbreaking video, and some new offerings across the resort. Let’s […] Read more…
I hope all of you US-based readers had a wonderful Labor Day weekend! August seems like a blur to me, and with D23, construction projects, and Halloween seasoning kicking off at the resort, it was a little bit of a blur for Disneyland too. Let’s take a look back at all the happenings last month. […] Read more…
It’s August! Halloween season is just weeks away now, but I’m soaking up the last bits of summer for as long as I can (even if all the stores have moved on to back to school & all things Halloween!). July brought some new characters, openings and closures, and some major progress on the cast […] Read more…
I can’t believe it’s already July. Summer is flying by and I’m trying my best to savor it before the fall and Halloween and then the holidays come crashing in. June was decently quiet at the Disneyland Resort, with some new offerings, some reduced offerings, and unfortunately – a devastating behind-the-scenes incident. Let’s take a […] Read more…
Hey all! I was largely offline for the last two weeks on a family vacation in Italy, so I didn’t realize this post missed its scheduled publication. Apologies – hope your June is off to a great start! I know the calendar doesn’t officially give us the summer season until June 20, but for me, […] Read more…
Welcome back to another monthly recap! April brought a LOT to the resort – new celebrations, new restaurants, new characters, new tours…even new possibilities thanks to the Anaheim City Council. Let’s dive right in. PIXAR FEST KICKS OFF Pixar Fest is officially underway, and just a few days in the crowds seem to be LOVING […] Read more…
Now that April is here, we’re definitely in full spring mode in California. Spring break crowds have flooded into the Disneyland Resort, flowers are blooming, and the last of the season’s rainstorms are (hopefully!) passing through. March at the happiest place on earth was busy – and not just because of the crowds. Construction continues […] Read more…
It’s March folks! And for me, that means I’m ready for spring and sunnier weather…even if the official first day of spring is still more than two weeks away. March also means the Disneyland Resort’s refurbishment season is winding down, and I have to say, this was one of the quietest months I’ve seen at […] Read more…

We saw walls go up, walls come down, and a pretty rough period technology-wise. Let’s take a look back at January at the Disneyland Resort. OUTAGES CAUSE MAJOR […] Read more…
