    Hello! For the 70th guided tour, A Story of Celebration at Disneyland, will we get to chose which time I can return for the Paint the Night parade or do they chose which showing we come back for? Thank you for your help!!

    Welcome back to planDisney, Tiffany! I’m so excited to hear that you’re interested in learning more about significant Disneyland moments throughout its incredible history. This tour is high on my own must-do list for my summer visit, so I’m especially thrilled to help you with your question today.

    As you know, one of the highlights of this tour is a reserved viewing area for the Paint the Night parade, complete with a serving of iconic Disneyland popcorn to enjoy while the dazzling floats light up the night sky. To find out more details, I called the Tickets line and spoke with a helpful Cast Member. They shared that, unfortunately, they do not currently have information available about whether Guests will be able to choose which performance of the parade (either the 8:45 PM or 10:45 PM showing) is included with the tour. However, the Cast Member assured me that this information should be released before your tour date, so they recommended calling the Ticket line closer to your visit to inquire about the specific details.

    And while we’re talking about exciting updates, don’t forget, Tiffany, there’s even more magic coming for Disneyland’s 70th anniversary celebration! Wondrous Journeys will return, lighting up Sleeping Beauty Castle with breathtaking projection effects, fireworks, and a heartfelt tribute to Disney animation and music. Over in Fantasyland, the brand-new Tapestry of Happiness projection show will debut on the façade of "it’s a small world", weaving together favorite Disney memories in a truly heartwarming display. Plus, a lively cavalcade led by Mickey Mouse will make its way down Main Street, U.S.A., featuring the return of Duffy the Disney Bear to Disneyland (and the debut of ShellieMay in a Disneyland cavalcade. What a perfect addition!).

    Over at Disney California Adventure Park, the celebration continues! World of Color Happiness! will make its grand debut, lighting up Paradise Bay with unforgettable Disney and Pixar moments. The energetic Better Together: A Pixar Pals Celebration! parade will showcase up to 30 of your favorite Pixar friends! Plus, Carthay Circle Theatre will come alive each evening with lights, music, and projections honoring Disney’s timeless storytelling legacy.

    Tiffany, I hope this information has you as excited as I am for all the magic awaiting you this summer at the Disneyland Resort! If you have any more questions, or just want to chat more about all the exciting things ahead, please don’t hesitate to visit us again at planDisney.

    Have a spectacular visit!
