The 70th Anniversary celebration at the Disneyland Resort runs from May 2025 to August 2026!
Happy 70th Birthday to Disneyland! They opened in 1955, and they decided to keep the celebration going for over a year, so people would have the chance to come visit and take in all of the magic of the anniversary. Both parks have daily live entertainment, lots of themed 70th foods, and plenty of merch to buy. The pretty pink and blue banners and signs are all over the park, and I couldn't help photographing many of them!
In Disneyland there are two 70th celebration parades, the Celebrate Happy character Cavalcade and the Paint the Night parade. There are also the Wondrous Journeys fireworks on the weekends. In Disney California Adventure there is the World of Color- Happiness show on the water at Paradise Bay. Carthay Circle in DCA also has a two-minute light projection show at night.

The 70th Stuff at Red Rose Tavern is just one of the many 70th themed desserts available in the parks.
The decor for the anniversary looked so pretty, especially this one located on Main St. U.S.A
My son bought this 70th Milk Marshmallow Wand in Disneyland at the Penny Arcade.
During our visit the 70th merch was 30% off, so I bought this cute ornament for my collection at Plaza Point on Main St. U.S.A
I also bought this 70th pin for 30% off in Frontierland at Westward Ho Trading Co. Also note the Baymax pin, not an anniversary item, but awesome, nonetheless.
My son and I got to watch the Celebrate Happy Cavalcade! This was a short parade, but so cute. Seeing Duffy was my favorite part! Duffy is Mickey's teddy bear and is super popular in the Asian Disney Parks. We need more Duffy and Friends at our domestic parks, too! I love how they included him in this parade for the 70th! The song was ''Celebrate Happy'' by the Jonas Brothers which played during the parade.
My sons and I both got to watch the Paint the Night parade in Disneyland at the end of our park day. My husband was worn out so he missed the parade, but he's not as into parades and fireworks as we are. Paint the Night is done so well! The floats are lit up and look unbelievable! It was so fun watching our fav characters go by. The music for this parade was Owl City's ''When Can I See You Again'', which is also from the movie Wreck it Ralph.
A little more 70th decor at the Disneyland Hotel!
In Downtown Disney at the Wonderful World of Sweets, we found a couple more 70th treats. We tried the Pink Mickey Ballon Marshmallow Pop and the 70th Celebration Mickey Cereal Treat!

Each night the iconic Carthay Circle building in DCA has a two-minute projection show with the "Celebrate Happy" song.
My son and I got to experience the World of Color-Happiness nighttime spectacular show in DCA on our last night! It was definitely spectacular and I almost cried a few times. We got lucky and got to move to the front and had some wonderful views! What a way to end our park day. The show is about 25 minutes long and has music, water elements, and lots of projections showing Disney and Pixar characters.
As we were leaving DCA and going back to our hotel, we just happened to see the Wonderous Journeys firework show at Disneyland! They kind of looked amazing from the esplanade right outside of the DCA entrance over the 50-foot castle that was built just for the 70th Anniversary!
Thanks for checking out my Disneyland 70th post! I'm so happy we visited during the celebration!
