Disneyland, the Happiest Place on Earth, has released
updates to its Disneyland
Resort 70th Anniversary Celebration guide, inviting guests to
come and “celebrate happy.”
In December 2024, Disneyland announced the full slate of
events and festivals for 2025. Since then, the
resort has added new features and entertainment to include:
Celebrate Happy Theme Song
Guests will hear this catchy, upbeat tune throughout the
celebration performed by the Jonas Brothers. The song “Celebrate Happy” is
available via streaming starting May 13.
World of Color Happiness
Inspired by Walt Disney’s iconic words from the park’s
opening seven decades ago, “To all who come to this happy place…welcome,” the
all-new World of Color nighttime spectacular show explores ‘happy’ through a
kaleidoscope of emotions, hosted by Joy and the other Emotions from the hit
Pixar Animation Studios films Inside Out” and Inside Out Two.
Paint the Night Parade
The dazzling nighttime parade at Disneyland Park lights up Main
Street, U.S.A. with stunning colors and lights. Mickey Mouse uses his vivid
imagination to harness the power of Tinker Bell’s pixie dust and “Paint the
Night” in Disney dreams, bringing to light beloved characters and stories from
Pixar films such as Monsters, Inc., Cars, and Toy Story and Disney Animation
films including The Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast.
Wondrous Journeys
After dark, Disneyland becomes a magnificent canvas with the
return of the ‘Wondrous Journeys’ spectacle experiencing a journey filled with
artistry, music storytelling and heart from stories like Hercules, The Princess
and the Frog, Peter Pan, Frozen, Big Hero 6, Moana and Encanto.
Better Together Pixar Pals Celebration

colorful floats and more than two dozen characters showcases heartwarming tales
from Pixar films, celebrating friendship and beyond.

mosaic of Disney attractions, moments and memories brought to life, inspired by
the work of legendary Disney artist Mary Blair.
