News: More and more keeps being announced for the 70th Anniversary of Disneyland. A new light, sound, and projection moment will be coming to Carthay Circle and Buena Vista Street in Disney California Adventure. The moment will be set to the tune “Celebrate Happy,” the theme song for the anniversary. – https://disneyparksblog.com/dlr/guide-to-the-70th-anniversary-at-disneyland-resort/ We have some new details about the Walt Disney animatronic experience coming to the Opera House in July. Various media outlets were invited to the Imagineering campus to see the life-sized concept sculpt, and to learn more about the show. Walt's voice in the show will be his own, with clips of his actual voice were painstakingly assembled from interviews. The animatronic itself is very lifelike. The posture, facial structure, and skin texture are “uncanny” according to MiceChat. – https://www.micechat.com/414430-disneyland-walt-disney-a-magical-life-revealed/ Another character from the Marvel Universe will be dropping by Avengers Campus for a limited time. Red Guardian, who first appeared in Black Widow, and is featured in the new movie Thunderbolts, will be meeting and greeting with guests. You can be sure to find him by checking the Disneyland App. – https://disneyparksblog.com/dlr/meet-the-super-amazing-red-guardian-at-avengers-campus/ If you are going to be in Avengers Campus heading into Cars Land, or the other way around in the near future, be aware that the path between the two by Luigi's is closed. This has been done for construction of a new restroom facility to compliment the new additions to Avengers Campus currently under construction. – https://www.micechat.com/414422-disneyland-news-70th-anniversary-improvements-red-guardian-appearance-store-changes/ May the 4th was this weekend and the Disney Parks Blog shared a recipe from A Galaxy Far, Far Away. The Felucian Falafel and Hummus Garden Spread from Docking Bay 7 may take some planning – with one step taking from 12-18 hours – but is sure to be a tasty treat! – https://disneyparksblog.com/disney-experiences/disney-eats-exclusive-plant-based-star-wars-day-recipe/ Later this month, a fun team will be visiting the parks. The Savannah Bananas, a baseball team similar to the Harlem Globetrotters, will be at Disneyland on May 28, 2025. Special entertainment moments, and themed food and beverages will be on hand to celebrate. – https://disneyparksblog.com/disney-experiences/savannah-bananas-disneyland-may-28/ On Monday, May 5, there was a Heroes Salute Cavalcade to honor the first responders of the fires back in January. The Heroes ticket also kicked off to coincide with the cavalcade. – https://www.micechat.com/414422-disneyland-news-70th-anniversary-improvements-red-guardian-appearance-store-changes/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHGVwxv9H1E A rather abrupt change has come to New Orleans Square. The Port Royal Curios and Curiosities shop, right next to the Royal Street Veranda, has been changed into a seating area for diners. Since the shop duplicated the merchandise which can be found at Madame Leota's “Somewhere Beyond” shop, the old location was not needed. The decor was not updated much, except to turn it into a jazzy looking speakeasy. Tables and chairs are scattered about for guests to get out of the heat and find a place to eat. – https://www.micechat.com/414422-disneyland-news-70th-anniversary-improvements-red-guardian-appearance-store-changes/ At the Emporium on Main Street, there are a set of windows that are decorated with animated scenes from Disney classics. Some of them have been in rough shape in recent times, but they are currently being refurbished for the 70th. No word on when they will be completed, but work is underway. – https://www.micechat.com/414422-disneyland-news-70th-anniversary-improvements-red-guardian-appearance-store-changes/ SnackChat: 70th Foodie Guide – Disney Eats: Disneyland 70th Celebration Foodie Guide  – Disney Parks Blog Discussion Topic: Freelance artist Jerrod Maruyama https://www.instagram.com/jmaruyama/

Sarah Says joins Rick for the second week in a row to discuss the changes that have occurred at Disney's California Adventure in the two-and-a-half decades since it opened across the esplanade from Disneyland Park. 

Rick and Sarah Says talk about the opening of Disney's California Adventure through how the park stands today over the next two weeks.  From Superstar Limo to Avengers Campus, DCA has had a unique history.

We're trading coasts and heading west for our very first trip to Disneyland! That's right—after years of covering Walt Disney World, we're finally getting the chance to experience the park that started it all. So today, we're counting down the eight things we're most excited to see, do, eat, and feel when we set foot in the Happiest Place on Earth.We kick things off with what might be one of the biggest draws for Walt Disney World veterans—simpler planning. From more day-of dining options to Lightning Lane flexibility and shorter trips that still feel full of magic, Disneyland encourages a spontaneous, go-with-the-flow style that takes the stress out of scheduling. That leads us into the vibe of the parks themselves—Disney California Adventure's uniquely themed lands, like Radiator Springs and Avengers Campus, offer a laid-back SoCal energy that's perfect for park hopping in under a minute.We'll also chat about seasonal events and entertainment we're catching during our trip, like DCA's Food & Wine Festival and Season of the Force. Add in Fantasmic! and fireworks over Sleeping Beauty Castle, and we've got a lot of nighttime magic to look forward to.Of course, Disneyland's culture and character interactions are a big part of the appeal. The more relaxed pace, roaming characters, and local passholder vibe all offer a very different feel from the Florida parks. And when it comes to food, we're more than ready to dig into some legendary Disneyland snacks—from corn dogs and churros to beignets and high-quality quick service.We'll wrap things up with a look at classic and unique attractions, the charming scale and layout, and finally, the emotional pull of walking in Walt's footsteps at his original park.Join us as we count down the top reasons we're absolutely thrilled to head to Disneyland for the very first time!MEI-Travel – Expertise.

MiceChat reports that Imagineers are working on a solution to this issue. The solution could replace some classic areas like the Port Royal shop, Royal Street Veranda quick service window, and the small courtyard between the shops.

The safety video with Sallah has returned to a more extended version with more theming than just the “use the seatbelts” section.

Kim recently took her two girls to Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando for a mother-daughter getaway. Hear more about her trip, learn some strategies for using Lightning Lane, new rides, new theme parks coming, and comparisons between the parks. It was hot, humid, and rainy in the afternoons, but they still had a fun time exploring all the parks. Luckily, Universal Orlando has more indoor rides that help on rainy days. Updates from Walt Disney World Tron in Tomorrowland at Magic Kingdom - it is like riding a motorcycle but on a roller coaster track. The ride is fabulous but really short. Splash Mountain is now Tiana's Bayou Adventure - this is a two-by-two flume-like ride that has been redesigned. Disney now has Lightning Lane Multi Experience and Lightning Lane Single Experience. With the Multi Experience, it works on multiple rides and as soon as you tap into one ride, you can request the next Lightning Lane. You want to purchase and prebook your first ride in advance. Single Experience is where you can buy a Lightning Lane time slot for individual rides like Tron or Rise of the Resistance. Disney's Lightning Lane experience is better than Universal's Express Pass because they load people from that lane faster. Disney has also changed their rules around their Disability Access service and made it much harder to obtain a pass. Keep this in mind if you have children with special needs and have used that service in the past. Tip: If you want to stay at one of the Deluxe hotels on property, you can stay by renting Disney Vacation Club points. (Riviera has Skyliner access) See Kim's article on renting and using DVC points. Disney is building a new ride in the Avengers Campus and they are getting rid of the Tom Sawyer Island and Riverboat in Magic Kingdom to create Cars Land. Updates from Universal Orlando Note: Universal Orlando hosted Kim's family for this part of the trip. Kim stayed at the Loews Sapphire Falls, which is a Moderate property and does not include the Express Passes. The Sapphire Falls is within walking distance to the parks and guests get one hour early entry. Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure still has very long lines. The nice thing about the Universal Express Passes don't require you to book any times online, so it is less stressful to manage. However, many people have these passes because they are staying at the premium hotels and the lanes load slowly so sometimes you don't save a lot of time (sometimes only about 10 minutes of time savings). There is a Universal Express Unlimited Pass that lets you ride a ride in the Express pass lane as much as you would like, without limits. Universal Orlando is building a whole new theme park in 2025 called Epic Universe. It is going to be further away from CityWalk and the other parks or hotels. It will also have another portion of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, Ministry of Magic. There will also be two premium hotels and a How to Train Your Dragon land.   Other Episodes You May Enjoy Disney Vacation Club tips Choosing a Disney World hotel Walt Disney World tips Universal Orlando's Volcano Bay Universal Orlando insider tips

This week, new villains have arrived at Oogie Boogie Bash, the story behind the gingerbread house in the Haunted Mansion, some holiday Magic Key perks, some atmosphere might go away forever, we talk about our Disneyland park days at D23, and more! 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: We finally have official confirmation of the new villains at this year's Oogie Boogie Bash. Dr. Doofenshmirtz from Phineas and Ferb is meeting and greeting in the Disney Jr. theater, and Hades, replacing Cruella in the Hollywood Pictures Backlot. Dr. Doofenshmirtz has received mixed-to-negative reviews on the look of the face character's execution. - https://www.micechat.com/395538-disneyland-update-construction-tricks-and-halloween-treats/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_otONSuoDo Every holiday season, the culinary team at Disneyland brings us the Haunted Mansion Holiday Gingerbread House. The Disney Parks Blog posted a behind-the-scenes look at what it took this year to bring the gingerbread house to life, and how the design came about. Head on over to the link in our show notes to see all the details. - https://disneyparksblog.com/dlr/disney-eats-the-making-of-the-haunted-mansion-holiday-gingerbread-house/ Downtown Disney has some new and relocated decor for the season. Some of the decor from the Mickey and Friends Tram route have come to Downtown Disney. - https://www.micechat.com/395538-disneyland-update-construction-tricks-and-halloween-treats/ Magic Key holders have a lot of perks at the moment for the holidays. A new exclusive trading card will be released each week from August 26th through September 19th on Monday through Thursday. A Magic Shot featuring Yzma from The Emperor's New Groove is by the Matterhorn August 19th through September 14th. Finally, a combo photo op, candy, and commemorative patch featuring Hades is under Silly Symphony Swings during Oogie Boogie Bash. - https://www.micechat.com/395538-disneyland-update-construction-tricks-and-halloween-treats/ https://mouseinfo.com/2024/08/magic-key-perk-all-2024-halloween-time-freebies-purchase-opps-more/#google_vignette Construction will soon begin on the expanded Avengers Campus early next year, so some clearing needs to happen backstage. Unfortunately, one of the (hopefully) temporary casualties of this is the Red Car Trolly. The maintenance barn for the trolly is where the new Avengers Infinity Defense attraction will be constructed, so it needs to be taken down. No word on if the Red Car Trolly will return. - https://www.micechat.com/395538-disneyland-update-construction-tricks-and-halloween-treats/ A missing treat has returned to Disney California Adventure! The Choco Smash Bar was taken off the Pym Test Kitchen menu last year, replaced by the cake version. The candy bar version is back, joining the cake version as an option. - https://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2024/08/25/a-missing-disney-snack-is-back/ Magic Happens had it's last performance recently, and in it's place is a new offering. The Halloween Cavalcade is a short production with a couple of Main Street vehicles and a float with characters in their Halloween costumes. There are also quite a few walking characters as well. - https://www.micechat.com/395538-disneyland-update-construction-tricks-and-halloween-treats/ Some quick construction updates from around the resort. The Haunted Mansion extended queue is starting to take shape with the main walls of the new section looking pretty far along in construction. The gift shop at the end of the attraction has begun vertical construction. The transformation into Bayou Country from Critter Country is progressing nicely, along with Tiana's Bayou Adventure, which is testing off and on. Finally, the Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree has a new sign and the refurbishment of the dining area looks to be wrapping up. - https://www.micechat.com/395538-disneyland-update-construction-tricks-and-halloween-treats/ https://youtu.be/0jYcPQlCRK0?si=lXt0TI9uAK1ixMzj https://www.micechat.com/383350-disneyland-update-rainy-days-reveals-and-reinventions/ SnackChat: Hungry Bear BBQ Jamboree - https://disneyparksblog.com/dlr/disney-eats-hungry-bear-barbecue-jamboree-foodie-guide/ Discussion Topic: D23 Disneyland Park Days

This week, Haunted Mansion Holiday is back open, we have all the details, Keyholders get first pick of Halloween merch, Deadpool and Wolverine arrive at the resort to big crowds, more Encanto could be coming to the resort, we finish our talk with Lorcana artist Casey Robin, and more! 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: We are recording a day earlier than usual this week, so it is Haunted Mansion Holiday reopening day! The Haunted Mansion has reopened with a virtual queue only option with the majority of the queue still under construction. Guests will need to go into the Disneyland App at 7am or 12pm to try and snag a spot in the virtual queue. For the 7am slot, you do not need to be in the park, but you do need to have scanned into either park before securing a spot for the noon opportunity. – https://www.micechat.com/365986-disneyland-shocker-haunted-mansion-expansions/ Guests that were able to get a virtual queue for the attraction and post video and photos online allowed us to see what has been updated and changed. The exterior queue feels very much like the queue previously, but the walkway is now wide enough for three lines; one for standby, one for Lightning Lane, and one for ADA exit. The hearse has been moved closer to the entrance, and the detail on the path is excellent. The Lightning Lane scan points are now closer to the entrance to the mansion itself. – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JWEG3BJyuU Haunted Mansion Holiday opening is signaling the approaching Halloween season! Magic Keyholders had the opportunity to purchase some of the new merchandise for the holiday starting July 27th at World of Disney. Some of the items included a Spirit Jersey with a tie dye design, a candy corn inspired Loungefly bag, a spooky purple tee, candy corn inspired ears, and more! – https://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2024/07/24/exclusive-new-souvenir-perk-announced-for-annual-passholders-in-disneyland/ In a stunning move, Disney California Adventure is now home to Deadpool and Wolverine. In the movies, Deadpool is a hard R-rated character, but is family friendly in the park. Together with Wolverine, the “Story Time with Deadpool” show is very fun to watch and is held in the courtyard of the Hyperion, between Guardians and the Hyperion. Deadpool has also shown up in the “Awesome Dance Off,” and “Avengers Assemble” shows in Avengers Campus. – https://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2024/07/27/i-am-shocked-and-grateful-that-disney-let-these-2-characters-into-a-park/ More Encanto is coming to the resort, according to a casting call online. There is already a Mirabel meet and greet, but this call is looking for a Mirabel who can sing! It is listed as a limited-time offering, so it could be for the holidays, or a limited-time show, or something else. However, any Encanto in the park is better than no Encanto! – https://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2024/07/26/we-found-a-clue-that-a-new-encanto-show-is-coming-to-a-disney-park/ In a bit of possible good news for Cast Members, Disney and the UFCW 324 union have reached an agreement. No details have come out and the official vote to accept the agreement takes place on July 29 (the day we recorded this episode) to accept the terms. Generally, it appears that the proposed 3-year contract contains significant wage increases for all cast members, seniority increases, and additional premiums, as well as the retention of premiums. There are also possible attendance policy changes. – https://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2024/07/24/unions-representing-14000-cast-members-reach-deal-with-disney/ In some parks-adjacent news, Hocus Pocus fans have a unique opportunity in Salem, Massachusetts. On September 20th fans can enter the Old Town Hall for an exclusive “I Put a Spell on You Masquerade.” The party will feature a DJ dance party, bars, souvenir gift bags, and, of course, live performances by the Sanderson Sisters! A limited number of early bird tickets are on sale at the link in our show notes starting at $150, plus fees for general admission and $215, plus fees for VIP admission which includes an autographed copy of the book “Hocus Pocus in Focus”, a photo op with the Sanderson Sisters, and more. – https://www.micechat.com/392749-hocus-pocus-masquerade-party/ SnackChat Tiana's Palace – https://disneyland.disney.go.com/dining/disneyland/tianas-palace/menus Discussion Topic: Casey Robin – https://www.caseyrobin.com/ Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/caseyrobin/ Wildermage Games – https://www.wildermagegames.com/
