While there are Disney Parks worldwide, the first is always special about something special. And now, Disneyland – the park that launched it back in 1955 – celebrating its 70th anniversary, and you can say that it is throwing a party.
And it celebrates the past and looks at the future. As in festive swing, you will see the return of the classic nighttime luxurious and the introduction of completely new people, updates for some fan-psandida attractions, a contingent of new bite to eat and drink, well, drinks, and a heavy dose of technology to push immersion.
I got a chance to visit Disneyland for the 70th anniversary celebrations, and it was also the first time in the park. It is enough to say, it was a lot and to find, and a cat of fun. Sadly, BDX Droids were not there, as these small, subjective droids are currently on a world tour, with their next stop Disneyland Paris. However, the 70th anniversary activities kept me very busy.
So now, I am sharing my five favorite things about Disneyland’s 70th celebration and now why can be the best time to go, whether it is your first time or you know the park like behind your hand.
Magicband+ unlocks special experiences
Magicband+ is already an important part of experiences in Disney Parks globally, I am used to wear a wear in Disney World and even used it to become a prize hunter in Butu on the edge of Galaxy, but for Disneyland 70th it unlocked at any time, day or night, a technology-operated, emperor experience.
Many of Disneyland had new booths for each of them while remembering the attraction and-you estimate it-a place to scan your magicband+. When scanning your band, the machine will play the theme voice and lights for riding, but your magicband+ will also boil and blush the light for a string of a built -in haptic motor and LED.
In the jungle cruise near the lockers of skippers, it also published a ticket for a VIP tour on the ‘World Famous Jungle Cruise’, which made me know that I will ride on the “Mekong girl ‘. It is not a real ticket, but is definitely a cute.
You have to go to a treasure hunting around the park to find all of them. These booths are also in a fantasland window by a bubidi bottom boutique in Frontierland near Silver Spar Supply, and Tili booths on the main road in front of the park. Tomorrow will be one in Autopia attraction soon. The experience will be different, but you will need a magicband+ to unlock it and create a memory.
Magicband+ can be purchased in the park or in the Disney Store in $ 34.99. Your park can be the key to unlocking tickets, a form of payment and unlocking interactions around the park. You can monitor the battery level, update the software, and link it to your Mydisney account to so that the ticket can be linked through the Disneyland app for Android or iOS – it will sink on Bluetooth.
Two all new launch shows, and a fireworks show return
Disney is known for her live entertainment products – is it projecting on water in Disneyland with the color of the world or with full fireworks show. Nevertheless, the entertainment offerings of Disneyland for the 70th extends far away.
A highlight for me was two new launch-show shows, which changed the outer frame It is a small world Attractions in Disneyland and the Disney California adventure to enjoy a bouncy soundtrack for the audience widely colored in the Cate Circle Restaurant, the speaker with the speaker in the animated display.

While the Cathe Circle is a restaurant, its unique front and the triangular finish presents a specific canvas to Disney’s complex launch system. The resulting light show is impressive and speaks for Disney’s technology and projection mapping expertise. The show runs at night for about three minutes and is named “Celebrate Happy: A Little Bit of Magic”.
Similarly, it is a nice large exterior shell of a small world, but not only a long flat surface – instead, it has different heights and depths, close to the paths with some parts and other parts. the result is “Tapestry of happiness” The show, which attracts a broad list of Disney’s characters and storylines, but more importantly, other parts of the park, including the haunted mansion and the Pirates of the Caribbean. Visual launch design is done in the style of Mary Blair, which is the original art director for riding.

Both projections suggest that there is excellent sound, even though my eagle eyes cannot indicate in the same way where Disney hid the speakers. Trust me, however, it becomes very loud. The hiding of technology is used to show stories and bring masks for life with sounds around, which essentially makes most of the Disney experiences.
Similarly, Disneyland is also bringing back the spectacle of a fan-psandida fireworks evening, but it is just more than the rocket in the sky. Sleeping beauty calely serves as a screen to display vivid animations for the projector – many of which are customs – but it is also spread to other nearby buildings and even the main street.
Additionally, there is any kind of drone through the power of what I believe, with flies in the sky from the larger hero 6, with fireworks and epic estimates. “Miracle trips” will be going on most of the nights and will last for only 15 minutes, so keep in mind that the weather should be correct.

Touchs 70th for a reputed ride
Now, I am a great fan of Toy Story-one of my favorite films, it makes sense that I enjoy a spin around the toy story midway frenzy. It is just that it is also a very technical-enacted ride, in which the blastors are engaged in a ride vehicle that will spin and stop in front of the big 3D screen. Target – Think Bullsays and Dartboard – appear on the screen, allowing you to score the points by shooting the wheel.
A rolling soundtrack also accompanies it, interaction with characters such as buzz, woody and green Army men, as well as air shoots, and again, very chaotic views.
It was always a race of points, you want to hit the highest goals – that is, 500 or 1,000 or 2,000 – but Disneyland is allowing you to scroll even more on the leaderboard, up to 70 or 7,000 if you will do, because they have added special elements to the game.
The Walt Disney Imaginerying team used a slightly more use than a software-based update to level the already dear attraction, making it fresh and new to the 70th anniversary.
Another ride that received an update, it was a small world that featured Miguel Cocoa As a doll. This classic film is now streaming on Disney+, one of the best streaming services. You can also see Toy Story 1 through 4 and See my colleague Lance Ulanoff Unpack Pixer Typestry – One of the first pieces of software made by the company before the toy story and countless other films.
Delicious new food, but no need to wait in line
I mean, what is a party without food? And Disneyland replied to the call by rolling 70 new foods – from coffee to fuel through the day 70th goods Sweets which were super good. There is something for all, and all these mild cuttings and drinks are available at shops across the park.
They are highly demanded after all, leading to some long lines, but here is the best tip that I can present you. Please use mobile orders through the Disneyland app on iOS and Android. It not only leaves you the line and takes another ride around the dumbo or any other attraction, but it is also very comfortable.
Once in the park, you open the Disneyland app, select three rows in the lower right corner, tap ‘Order Food’, select the location, and select your. You will be given a window to return, and once you pass, you will tap “I am here, preparing my food” to start cooking them. Then, you will get a notification with the window number, share your name and order name, and you are ready for a delicious food.
The best thing, if you are on an iPhone, it is that it supports live activities – so you can tap “I am from” I am “from the lock screen without the need to unlock and navigate through the app.
A parade with over a million LED lights, all sinks
The jaw leaving moment, and perhaps a Halelujah event for Disneyland fans, Paint the Night Parade is the return. Yes, it is beautifully choreographed with excellent artists and exciting songs, but the real spectacle is a pure amount of color.
As the name suggests, flots, letters and costumes are all adorned with LEDs that are in sparkle, glow and flash, all a integrated, synchronized beat for music. It looks incredible at night. There are eight moments of the parade, many Disney franchisees spread flots and artists – Tinker Bell, Monster Inc., Cars, The Little Marmed, Toy Story, Disney Princess, Frozen and Mickey and Friends.
It is super impressive, just watch videos and photos, but it is just beyond the LED string light. The Monster Inc. Take the float, which ride the sule and mike Wazowski – it is more than 21 feet tall with 17,000 points light, but also five doors, as seen in the film, spin and spin and more than 40 LED video panels.
Or with cars, beyond Lightning Mcquin, the classic Mac truck is re -connected with an open rear trailer, made of glowing jewelry that fills the entire space and fills the entire location – in fact, it makes 27,000 orbes and 2,000 feet LED neon shining depresses that line up the trailer.
All these are LED controlgic, and Disney Live Entertainment uses all those to make a show that combines them with audio speeches and classic songs. Disney shared that there are more than 200 universe controls to operate the parade.
Additionally, some additional LEDs are closed in their magicbands in the form of light and ‘dance’+ when different floats pass. This is magic, well, Rfid and knowing your location.
Among all, it is just scratching the surface of Disneyland’s 70th celebration. There are also more iconic character art installation setup around the resort that will react your magicband+, the key to a purchasable ‘key’ the key of Disneyland ‘that interacts with the memorable keyhole around the parks, a Mickey Mouse Mouse Popcorn Backet responds to “Hey Mickey”, and a Usb-C port for Custom Sound effect.
Then, of course, all classic rides, many parade, and “World of Color: Happiness,” another evening show where you can vote on some characters.
The 70th celebration is going on for a year, so there is a lot of time to get out of there and enjoy it all. I certainly hope that all these technical immersion-enhancers are clinging from all around and also carried to other parks.
