Recently in the Orange County Register, there was talk of how Disneyland almost used drones in World of Color when it premiered back in 2010. One of the reasons that this didn’t come to be was governmental regulations on use of drones in nighttime spectaculars. Regulations have decreased since then, which has resulted in drone shows at Disney Springs in Walt Disney World. Maybe drones will be in Disneyland’s future as well. – https://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2024/09/25/confirmed-disney-almost-used-drones-in-world-of-color/

The fountains at World of Color have been getting some TLC to keep the show in tip-top shape. According to the World of Color dining package calendar, it appears that the show will be returning on October 25th. – https://www.micechat.com/398835-disneyland-news-christmas-creep-splash-peek-guest-sneak/

Among the options are Mickey and Minnie couple shirts, a couple Haunted Mansion themed shirts, and more! – https://www.micechat.com/398835-disneyland-news-christmas-creep-splash-peek-guest-sneak/

The Disneyland Magic Key Instagram account posted a fun new scavenger hunt around the resort. The Floral scavenger hunt features different plants around Disneyland with the name of the plant and a picture to help you find them. This is a great way to enjoy the hard work and beauty of the horticulture team at the resort. – https://www.micechat.com/398835-disneyland-news-christmas-creep-splash-peek-guest-sneak/ https://www.instagram.com/p/DARFVnQPN_y/

We previously talked about the Scary Teddy popcorn bucket that debuted out in Walt Disney World last month. Disneyland is getting the bucket on October 3rd. Along with Scary Teddy is a Madame Leota straw clip! – https://www.micechat.com/398835-disneyland-news-christmas-creep-splash-peek-guest-sneak/

A new treat has come to Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar. The Nightmare Grog is a Dole Whip Mango Pineapple, with a hint of Gorilla Grog, served in a Nightmare Before Christmas souvenir cup. The cup features Jack and Zero decked out for the holidays, with “Trader Sam’s” printed on the side. – https://www.instagram.com/p/DAjV-_ToCBo/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

This is more of a possibility than a for sure thing, but every October, Disneyland has raised ticket prices. If you are thinking of a visit in the next few months, we recommend getting your tickets now. Our friends over at ConciEARS can help secure those for you before the prices go up.
