Is Disneyland changing too much, too fast?
“it’s a small world” in Disneyland
The Disneyland Resort is celebrating its 70th anniversary in 2025 and, with it, bringing special entertainment, ride overlays, and more to the Resort! That includes some ride changes coming to the Disneyland classic attraction “it’s a small world”. Regardless of how you feel about Disney changing its most timeless and classic attractions, THE CHANGE IS HAPPENING and we’re going over what you should expect to see when it reopens.
We’re less than one month away from the start of Disneyland’s 70th Anniversary Celebration!

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.
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.

To enhance this milestone anniversary — which will be celebrated May 16th, 2025 and wrap up in the summer of 2026 — Disneyland is introducing some new show and character experiences in addition to bringing back some fan-favorite experiences that have since left the resort over the years. Speaking of returning goodies, there are some now-defunct Disney snacks we hope make their return as part of the celebrations.

Main Street Electrical Parade when it returned for its anniversary at Disneyland
Beginning May 16th, Disneyland will start its year-long celebration honoring its 70th anniversary, which will run into the summer of 2026. The anniversary will see some new offerings like shows and ride overlays arrive at the resort, as well as the return of some fan-favorite shows.
