It’s been a great weekend. The weather was perfect, and there were so many fun events taking place. I hope you had a great time, enjoying the weekend with your families.

I think if you read this blog on a semi-regular basis, that you know my family loves Disneyland. We have been annual passholders for many years, and love to make it out, whenever we have the opportunity. If you are a fan of the Disneyland Resort, you want to mark your calendar for May 24th.

Disneyland and Disney California Adventure, have decided to kick off the Memorial Weekend with a bang, by keeping both parks open for 24 hours! This will be the start of a Monstrous Summer, and the 24 hour party, looks to be a blast! The parks will stay open from 6 a.m., May 24 to 6 a.m., May 25, 2013,

According to the Disney Parks Blog you will be able to, “party the night away at both parks with special entertainment including: a “Monsters University” “TLT Monstrous” Dance Club and Star Wars characters in Tomorrowland and late-night Character Pajama Party in Mickey’s ToonTown at Disneyland park. The new Fantasy Faire Royal Theatre at Disneyland park will become a Royal Dance Hall late at night with a live band and dancing; and guests of Disney California Adventure park will find Monstrous photo opportunities with new “Monsters University” “Dorms” in Hollywood Land and a new “Monsters University” float leading the Pixar Play Parade.”

It looks like it’s going to be a blast and I’m saving the date and plan on taking the family! I think my kiddos will be all over the pajama party!

Mickey’s Halloween Party at the Disneyland Resort and Giveaway!

 

 

Mickey's Halloween Party

I love visiting the Disneyland Resort during Halloween Time. The Disneyland Resort is decked in beautiful decorations and hosts the one event, our family looks forward to every year, Mickey’s Halloween Party at Disneyland Park. It has become an annual tradition and one that the kids start looking forward to it very early in the year.

Mickey’s Halloween Party is a special after hours costume party (the one and only time that adults are allowed to wear costumes at the park) that features super fun treat stations that dish both candy and healthy treats, Halloween Screams firework spectacular, music and dance stations at nearly every turn and the ability to enjoy the park after hours in an exclusive setting.

Another great perk of Mickey’s Halloween Party is the opportunity to enter Disneyland three hours before the party starts. You can head over up to 3 hours early and enjoy all that Disneyland has to offer before the party even begins.

The Disneyland Resort is decorated for Halloween and is the perfect setting for THE Halloween Party of the year. There are an incredible number of Jack-o-lanterns on Main Street and other fall decorations throughout the park.  Some of attractions such as the Haunted Mansion and Space Mountain are made over for Halloween Time and turn into The Haunted Mansion Holiday and Space Mountain Ghost Galaxy. They are not to be missed!

Mickey’s Halloween Party takes place on Monday October 15th, 29th,  Tuesday October 2nd, 9th, 23rd, Friday October 5th, 12th, 19th and 26th. There will also be a Mickey’s Halloween Party on Halloween Night.

You can save on admission by purchasing ahead of time and on select nights, annual passholders, receive a discounted price. Make sure to purchase your tickets ahead of time because nights sell out quickly. You can also purchase tickets at the door, if the night is not sold out, which is rare.

I promise that it will be a night, you won’t soon forget! We have made some wonderful memories. Make sure to take your camera, because there will be plenty of opportunities for pictures.
