Disney has officially kicked off its year-long celebration of Disneyland’s 70th anniversary, inviting us to preview the festivities planned throughout Summer 2026. This comprehensive guide will give you all the details on the entertainment, food and beverages, merchandise, and more that you can look forward to during your visit. From the dazzling return of Paint the Night to nostalgic food offerings and the innovative Disneyland Key, there's no shortage of excitement. Below are the twelve key highlights you need to know about Disneyland's 70th anniversary, and we're eager to hear what excites you the most!
Planning a visit for the 70th anniversary? Disney is making it easier on your wallet with special offers. You can snag a 3-day, 1-park per day ticket for as low as $360, or a 4-day, 1-park per day ticket for just $400, valid from May 16 to August 14, and usable on non-consecutive days.
For those staying on property, you can enjoy up to 20% off at the Disneyland Hotel during the same period. This discount not only saves you money but also lets you experience the hotel's unique 70th anniversary celebrations, including special decorations, themed in-room festivities, and exclusive beverages. Staying at the Disneyland Resort also means you're just steps away from Downtown Disney, which will be adorned with 70th anniversary medallions and offer numerous photo opportunities with favorite Disney characters.
A new pre-show starring The Muppets, who are also marking their 70th anniversary, adds to the excitement. The musical lineup includes Boyz II Men's special rendition of 'Rainbow Connection' and FITZ's new original song 'Makes Me Wanna Move.'
