Disneyland - Celebrate 100 years of wonder!

Why Holiday At Disneyland?

I was bitten by the Disney bug when I was 6 years old and every time I go back, there's always something new to discover in this magical place!

Enchanting. Magical. Mesmerising – ‘kids’ of all ages will love a whimsical Disney holiday. Disney celebrates 100 years this year, and with new shows, rides & entertainment planned, there’s never been a better time to visit. The heart of the celebration will be at Disneyland Resort in California. 

My Hot Tips

Disney Parks now require reservations to limit the number of people in the parks per day. For Disneyland in California, you can only book 6 months in advance. For Walt Disney World in Orlando, you can book up to a year in advance. Reservations can be made at the time of booking your ticket.

You absolutely need to download the Disneyland or Walt Disney World app. This will be your lifeline in the park. They can hold your ticket information, you can order quick service meals so you don't have to wait in the queue, find out how long wait times are for rides, book your 'Lightning Lane' reservation using the Lightning Lane Multi Pass service, or a 'Lightning Lane Single Pass' reservation, find out where the characters are for photo ops and much more!

There is wi-fi in the Parks so you don't need to worry about using international data.

My favourite highlights

With new night time shows and the re-opening of Mickey's Toontown at Disneyland Resort, this is a celebration that can't be missed! High on my 'must do' 2023 visit is seeing the 'World of Color - One' show which will be showcasing the history of Disney using lasers and lights. And I can't wait to experience the new Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railroad ride - I do love rollercoasters!

Best Time To Go

Anytime is a good time to go to Disney! There is not really such a thing as a 'quiet' season anymore. For Disneyland - just remember if going in July/August it will be extremely hot waiting in lines. Christmas/New Year's is the busiest time in the Parks and there are various 'after dark' parties that happen throughout the year. These are separate ticketed events and usually sell out pretty quick. One of the most in demand is the Halloween parties. No one does a Halloween party quite like Disney!
