Disneyland’s magical charm is shining even brighter this year as the park celebrates the 65th anniversaries of two beloved classic attractions: the Disneyland Monorail and the Matterhorn Bobsleds. New photo opportunities have been unveiled to commemorate these milestones, and fans of any age will revel in these nostalgic, picturesque settings.
The Disneyland Monorail’s 65th anniversary photo op is an absolute must-see. This iconic attraction, which whisked guests above Tomorrowland since its inception, includes a compelling homage to the submarine ride that also debuted 65 years ago (with some breaks and overlays along the way). Whether it’s posing with the sleek monorail or marveling at the submarine’s historic significance, these backdrops will surely transport you back in time.
Not to be outdone, the Matterhorn Bobsleds, a towering symbol of adventure, are marking their 65th year with photo ops inspired by their Swiss alps heritage. Think charming Swisskapolka-themed signs and the majestic backdrop of the bobsleds themselves. This gives visitors not only a chance to capture incredible memories but also to appreciate the enduring allure of this snow-capped ride.
Both attractions promise a feast for the eyes and provide the perfect backdrop for snapping pictures that juxtapose Disneyland’s rich history with its vibrant present. As you stroll through the park, be sure to stop by these attractions and immerse yourself in their storied pasts—and capture a piece of it for your own scrapbook.
What’s more, Disneyland fans won’t want to miss other exciting updates around the park. For example, there’s new signage for the Disney Vacation Club “Welcome Home Center” in the former Blue Sky Cellar, special 65th anniversary mugs at Trader Sam’s, and the fifth anniversary of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge with new merchandise and culinary delights. Plus, if you’re a fan of Disney music, check out the new song from Tiana’s Bayou Adventure now streaming on all major platforms.
