Halloween festivities have taken hold at the Disneyland Resort, bringing a mix of spooky delights and early holiday cheer. Amidst the haunted happenings, anticipation is growing for the grand opening of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure on November 15. Magic Keyholders get a sneak preview starting today, October 21, using the Virtual Queue system. Guests should note that these previews don’t guarantee the ride will be fully operational.
As Halloween Time winds down, a sneak peek of the holiday season is making an early appearance. Snow has already graced Sleeping Beauty Castle, mainly to set the scene for filming Disney’s annual Christmas special. We even spotted John Legend recording for the special, adding to the pre-holiday excitement. Meanwhile, over at Disney California Adventure, holiday decorations are slowly making their way onto Grizzly Trail.
Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree opens its doors this Friday, October 25, with a menu boasting everything from a $21.49 Smoked Barbecue Platter to a $14.99 Corn Ribs Plate. The Country Bears have made their presence felt with new posters adorning the restaurant’s exterior. For those craving a full Disneyland experience, the Disneyland Railroad reopens the same day after a lengthy refurbishment. Construction walls are still up, but the trains have been sighted testing the tracks.
A new Lightning Lane Premier Pass hits Disneyland’s line-skipping options from October 23, costing $400 per person per day until the end of the year. This pass allows one-time entry to all Lightning Lane entrances in the park, sans scheduled return times. The dynamic pricing next year will range between $300 to $400 based on demand. Star Wars fans can also enjoy a new photo op in Galaxy’s Edge, complete with props and special lighting, available for $39.99.
With character sightings, nighttime beauty, and just a hint of holiday magic, Disneyland is bustling with activity. We’d love to hear from you! What excites you most about these updates? Share your thoughts and connect with fellow Disney fans in the comments below.
