Celebrities have been visiting Disneyland since the “Happiest Place on Earth” first opened back in 1955. Over the last 75 years, major figures from politics, film, sports, and culture have visited the park, often with cameras in tow. Recently, an acclaimed Hollywood actress paid a visit.

A big celebration is in store, too, which will bring new ride updates, special decor on Sleeping Beauty Castle and throughout Disneyland Park, PLUS the return of two parades. One of those parades is the popular Paint The Night parade, but Disney has revealed a change being made to that parade that you might want to know about.

This exciting event kicks off on May 16th, 2025, and runs throughout the summer. As part of the festivities, there will be new ride additions, brand-new attractions, the return of fan-favorite parades, and so much more. The actual anniversary falls on July 17th, but if you’re a Magic Key Passholder wanting to celebrate in the parks that day — you might be out of luck.

This might be the greatest news we’ve ever gotten to share with you.

Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run
We learned that yes, Ryan Gosling is going to star in a Star Wars movie, Andor season two is going to be OFF the hook, Ahsoka season two is bringing back Hayden Christensen as Anakin Skywalker, and SO much more. However, we also got some details on a ride in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disney World and Disneyland. Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run is changing — and we just got even MORE details on those changes.
Only true Disney Adults know of Disney’s famous and most secretive club.
Walt & Mickey
This secret club was founded by Walt Disney and has most of us banging at the door wanting to be let in — but is Club 33 becoming less of a secret?
We’ve got not-so-great news coming out of Disneyland Resort.
“it’s a small world” under refurbishment
One of the most iconic attractions in the park, “it’s a small world” has been closed for refurbishment since the holiday edition of the ride was open for the holiday season at the end of 2024. Previously, the attraction was slated to reopen at the end of this month, but Disney has just announced that opening date has been pushed back.
Happy Star Wars season! Yes, it’s Season of the Force in Disneyland, and we are celebrating ALL there is to celebrate about that galaxy far, far away.
Season of the Force display at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel
We’ve been enjoying this special time in Disneyland, which includes all kinds of fun space-themed snacks. Now, we’ve been trying every Star Wars treat we’ve been able to find (including snacks at Star Wars Nite), but we’ve come across yet another snack…and, y’all, this one sort of blew our minds. It’s the Peka Pretzel at the Tomorrowland Pretzel Cart, and we need to talk about it.
It’s basically Star Wars time of year, and we are SO HERE FOR IT. Yep, a huge celebration of all things Star Wars is happening RIGHT NOW in Disneyland called Season of the Force — and it even includes some new food items.
Ewok!
But beyond the food, we’ve also just attended the first Star Wars Nite of the year, AND we’re looking forward to May the 4th. Of course, that means that a lot of new Star Wars merchandise is dropping in shops, and we just found some brand NEW Starbucks Discovery Series Star Wars mugs focused on planets that you’ll only find in a galaxy far, far away.
