The overnight crew got to enjoy open attractions, fun character sightings, a live DJ, and classic theme park treats like Plaza Inn fried chicken. To top off the well-deserved appreciation night, every attendee walked away with a custom-branded third-shift hat to commemorate the fun. – https://www.laughingplace.com/disney-parks/disneyland-resort-third-shift-cast-members-celebration/ Following a massive tournament in Las Vegas, Fantasy Flight Games announced that the Star Wars: Unlimited Galactic Championship is moving to the Disneyland Hotel in May 2027.

This adjustment moves the festivities up by five days from what was originally scheduled, neatly matching the calendar dates for Walt Disney World in Florida. Guests can look forward to a ton of classic holiday cheer returning across the parks, including festive ride overlays, the “Believe… in Holiday Magic” fireworks, and brand-new seasonal outfits for Mickey and his friends. – https://www.micechat.com/440082-disneyland-update-disney-layoffs-holiday-dates-d23-auction/ Disneyland is temporarily pressing pause on the popular Minnie & Friends character breakfast at the Plaza Inn starting August 10, 2026. Don’t worry, the restaurant itself isn’t closing down entirely, so you can still head over for regular lunch and dinner options like their famous fried chicken. The fun character breakfast is expected to make its comeback sometime in late September, though Disney hasn’t announced an exact return date just yet. – https://www.laughingplace.com/disney-parks/disneyland-plaza-inn-character-breakfast-temporary-closure-august-2026/ Discussion Topic: PNWMM – https://youtu.be/L40nQZtduNM?si=BFI8N9GYt3BiG3sK – Walt Disney Archives Pinocchio Howard Johnson: Get a $100 Disney Gift Card with your HoJo Anaheim stay!

Please support the show if you can by going to https://www.dlweekly.net/support/. Check out all of our current partners and exclusive discounts at https://www.dlweekly.net/promos. News: Kicking off the big Anaheim fan event D23 Day is returning to Disneyland on August 13, 2026! Highlights include free Mickey ear hats, rare character pop-ups, and complimentary PhotoPass downloads. Visitors can check out special entertainment like the Disney Legends Cavalcade parade, dance parties, exclusive merch and snacks, and a massive live Disney Princess concert at night. – https://disneyparksblog.com/dlr/details-for-d23-day-at-disneyland/ Disney and Heritage Auctions are putting 50 authentic, park-used props and historic artifacts up for bid in a massive new “Disney Experiences” collection. Up for grabs are iconic pieces like a Big Thunder Mountain mine car, a Haunted Mansion glass slide, and a sea lion from King Triton’s Carousel—with every single lot starting at just $1 with no reserve. Online bidding is open now, and the whole event wraps up with a live auction hosted by Mickey Mouse voice actor Bret Iwan on August 16 during D23. – https://www.laughingplace.com/disney-parks/disney-experience-auction-items-d23-2026/ The launch of the new Lorcana Curator’s Collection – Heroines Edition drew massive, unprecedented crowds as collectors and buyers rushed to get the highly anticipated set. Demand at Disneyland filled the queue within the first hour of park opening, leaving many latecomers unable to join. Long waits and intense summer heat created challenging conditions at Disney Springs, while overwhelming crowds and queue-jumping at the London Disney Store eventually forced staff to cancel the release after fans had waited up to 12 hours. – https://www.micechat.com/439642-disneyland-news-halloween-birthday-bummer-earl-of-sandwich/ To mark 50 years of partnership between Disney and Dole, Disneyland just dropped a cute new souvenir Dole Whip cup. The partnership actually started back in 1976 when Dole began sponsoring The Enchanted Tiki Room—a few years before Dole Whips even debuted at the parks. You can snag the new “Swirl Up Some Magic” cup featuring Mickey and friends for $10.49, and it comes filled with your choice of Dole Whip. – https://www.laughingplace.com/disney-parks/50-years-dole-whip-cup/ Disneyland marked its 71st birthday with a charming celebration that gave parkgoers a chance to celebrate. The highlight was a birthday version of the “Celebrate Happy Cavalcade,” complete with colorful balloons, a rainbow cake, and a crowd sing-along to honor the park. While it was a much more low-key affair than last year’s milestone 70th, it made for a fun, blink-and-you’ll-miss-it surprise for guests who caught the special moment. – https://www.micechat.com/439642-disneyland-news-halloween-birthday-bummer-earl-of-sandwich/ Discussion Topic: Games With James: The Disneywed Game Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Imagineers combined a mechanical figure with advanced front-projection technology to show a skeleton pirate morphing into a living buccaneer as he lifts and drops a cursed Aztec medallion. This new addition has sparked intense debate among park fans, with critics arguing that the realistic appearance and loud sound effects disrupt the original eerie, silent atmosphere crafted by the original imagineers. – https://www.micechat.com/438200-disneyland-news-4th-of-july-pirates-controversy-earl-of-sandwich-opens-tiana-troubles/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=331z0nOZJw0 Great news for anyone who loves using Disney gift cards: the official apps for both Walt Disney World and Disneyland just got a massive upgrade.
